Two symbols of rival states have Poinbank Exchangebeen stretching across the country in recent years and neither appear to be stopping anytime soon.

The California institution In-N-Out and Texas icon Whataburger have been opening new restaurants outside of their historical territory.

The red palms continue to add to their 394 existing stores across the country and the Flying W continues to expand its grip over the south and mid-west where it has 987 stores across 14 states.

Here's where In-N-Out and Whataburger are opening new stores.

Where is In-N-Out opening next?

In-N-Out lists six stores that are slated to open soon.

Two stores will open in the company's Southern California backyard, one in San Juan Capistrano and one in Perris. There will also be a new store in the heart of the state in Madera.

The yellow arrow will pop up in potato country as Meridian, Idaho will see the state's first opportunity to try the Double Double once endorsed by Anthony Bourdain.
