In-N-Out Burger Donates $25K to GOP, Sparks Boycott

A public filing has revealed that In-N-Out Burger -- the 69-year-old fast food chain headquarted in Irvine, Calif. -- donated $25,000 to the California Republican party. The news has prompted a boycott, Newsweek reports.

The donation was uncovered by freelance reporter Gabe Schneider, who blasted the information on Twitter.

Moments later, #BoycottInNOut began circulating on the social media platform.

Privately-owned In-N-Out operates restaurants throughout the Southwest -- it famously prints Bible verses on much of its packaging. Run by Lynsi Snyder, the granddaughter of the chain's founders, the company has yet to comment on the controversy.
