    Default I hope this isn't the beginning of the end of Whataburger...

    Whataburger sells majority ownership stake to Chicago investment firm

    Whataburger's founders, the Dobson family, will have a minority ownership position in the company. President and CEO Preston Atkinson and board chairman Tom Dobson will keep their seats on the board, but will retire from daily operations.

    Once they become too corporate there's a good chance they'll suck ... but there's a ton of good burger chains out there these days (some would say we live in a golden age of burger chains).

    They got them here and I'm not impressed. Same as every fast food joint.

    The best burger in the entire world is still just a hamburger.

    Whataburger is the best. Thank God I’ll be in Texas in a few weeks.

    I remember being able to get a good chocolate shake the size of a Big Gulp.

    I haven't had a Whataburger in about 5 years. I like that they're not drowned in mayo. Whataburger with extra mustard and onion rings. Good stuff.
