Whataburger is more than just a fast-food chain; it's a cultural institution, particularly in its home state of Texas. Founded in 1950 by Harmon Dobson and Paul Burton in Corpus Christi, Texas, Whataburger has grown from a single roadside burger stand to a beloved brand with a devoted following across the southern United States. What makes Whataburger stand out from the crowded fast-food landscape? It's a combination of its distinctive offerings, commitment to quality, and deep-rooted connection to its community.
