Rumor has it that the Whitecastle has liver inside......no wonder it's nick named "Sliders"

I used to eat the White Castles all the time up north, but in Florida they have Krystal and they are not the same. Krystals are a cheap imitation of the truely original white castles.

For those die hard WC fans, you can still find them in your most freezer sections of the store.
About $3.50 for 6. Expensive but oh so worth it.

They were good when they sold for $.12 each in 1966 Florida!What do they sell for now? Are they still the same 2 bite size?

The White Castle burger is the all time food "best buy". Down five or ten for lunch and you can still taste them through suppertime.

If you mix in a good beer binge you will get a outstanding gas...at both ends...LOL

I live close enough to a White castle in South St. Louis that when I mow my lawn, I can smell the grease thick in the air -- their chicken rings and onion rings taste almost exactly alike, but I'm still addicted . . . .[:X*]

One thing about belly bombers,no matter how drunk you got,can,t remember where you been or what you did, upon waking the next morning the one thing you will know forshure is if you ate one the night before.

Of course that was in my younger years

Great snack after a night of drinking!!

For those of you who have never had the pleasure of a White Castle, the perfect White Castle has the following:

EQUAL AMOUNTS OF:

Burger
Onions
Grease/fat

OH YEAH !!!!!!!!!

White Castle used to sell a t-shirt with the "Belly Bombers" logo on it.

My favorite name, though, is "Rectum Rocket".

Used to have a dog that wouldn't go near a McDonald's burger, but had a real White Castle jones.

Sliders, gut bombs or loose stool specials. Nothing better after a drunk.
Oh yeah....

In 1982 we paid 15 or 20 cents a piece for em... We used to order 100 at a time... :)

Remember buying bags of them after a night fishin' on the White River in downtown Indpls. My Dad loved 'em, guess I picked up the habit from him.

MMMmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Can't beat 'em. I've always said some of the best food in the world comes from behind bulletproof glass.

Well now you know where all of that crud that is scraped off of the grills at McDonalds and Carls Jr. goes. Oh, except Jack in the Box. They use their grill scrapings in their tacos.

VinceU1 (above) reminds me about the Indy WC on W Wash St, just E of the river, by where the Kingans Packing Plt was "back when". Many a "sackful'n a six-pak for every passenger" cruises thru there long ago There's a hi-rise Marriot there now I think.

Ahhhh, the aroma never leaves your memory!

Let's call a Spade a Spade. Those things are no more hamburgers than Taco Bell is Mexican food. We were in Trenton, MI last year and dropped in to try some. The place was so nasty and dirty (flies, filth on the floor) that we just walked out. The bisquick biscuits with a piece of meat in them that they call a burger there were not looking to good. It looked as though someone with a cold had won a sneezing battle with the glass the "burgers" were behind.

WC can't even compare to Tommy's burgers in Kali at 3 am after you've been on a drinking spree with your pals. Mmm um good, Tommy's chilli burger or some chilli cheese fries...

Posted: 3/2/2001 9:25:20 AM EDT

[#26]

Call 'em what you want, I still luv 'em.

Haven't had fresh(!?!) ones in a few years. I'm really strung out for some now...

They've also got the best onion rings.

Best served around 3:00 in the morning.

Nothing on this earth like a sack full of "sliders". I love 'em. I get 'em maybe once every month or so, when a craving hits.

White Castle, it's what you crave!!

Yummy! Sliders!

If you're ever in the Twin Cities, White Castles are still around. It's been a few months since I've been at one, but they're still good.

I was at a friend's wedding about 10 years ago in Chicago (Cicero?), and there was a WC there.

Definitely a Yes!

hey Bofo,
Yeah that's the one!!!! Strangely enough, my grandma and dad both worked at that Kinguns(never could spell the dang name!!!) Got LOTS of really good salami from there though![:P]

Back when I was attending Eastern Michigan University, our big thing was to get a couple of sacks of those WC bad boys and a 30 pack of Stroh's (equally destructive on your colon) and make a night of it.

The next day you spent on the toilet, cursing White Castle and Stroh's and promising God you'd never do it again.

But come next week, you always did.

Man, my gut is turning just thinking about it.

In all my years, I have never had one of these burgers, much less heard of them. What am I missing?

Posted: 3/2/2001 2:18:07 PM EDT

[#34]

I'll tell ya what your missing Stubbs.

Maybe 1 oz of square meat with 5 cute little hole in it. 2 oz's of onions on top of that. 1 pickle slice. All on a bun that looks like a square dinner roll.

Oh did I leave out the part of some of the worst gas you've ever had in your life. LOL

I've never had any gastric distress because of White Castles. Then again, I stick to Hamburgers only (don't like cheese) and limit my consumption to 6 at a time.

The frozen, packaged ones are great if you zap them right.

Posted: 3/2/2001 2:54:36 PM EDT

[#36]

Nope!

Give me a Whattaburger!!!!

Posted: 3/2/2001 3:05:13 PM EDT

[#37]

Whattaburger? Horsemeat with coleslaw between two buns!

Let's rate 'em

1. In-N-Out Burger
2. Carl's Jr (Hardees)
3. Tommy's
4. Burger King

19. Whattaburger
20. White Castle

Posted: 3/2/2001 3:27:50 PM EDT

Yum, White Castles!

The only food you can still taste two days later. I love 'em, but make sure the bathroom is in working order when I eats them!

Posted: 3/2/2001 11:34:58 PM EDT

[#39]

Dammit, now I have another reason to hate PRK - no White Castle. Probably not PC enough. Can't call it White Castle, that would be racist! [:(!]

All we get is frozen ones and man I'm craving some right now, and they don't even come close to being as good as the fresh ones.

Posted: 3/2/2001 11:37:18 PM EDT

[#40]

Bootedaddy, you forgot to add a quart of Hudy. That, and a Sack -O- Sliders,will give you the worst case of gas you'e ever had. (In this, or any previous life!) Damn, this makes me hungry![puke]

Posted: 3/3/2001 12:36:39 AM EDT

[#41]

At least there is a Dairy Queen nearby...

Posted: 3/3/2001 2:35:45 AM EDT

Love 'em at night, hate 'em in the morning.
Ron, you are right about the gas, can clear a room in no time (also great in elevators)[^]

Posted: 3/3/2001 2:43:05 AM EDT

Ummm, I've never had the pleasure. Thank God. And, NO! i'm not try'in to start a religion thread.

Just reading the subject line has me reaching for the Alka-Seltzer.

We used to eat them by the dozen. Haven't had them for many years. I seem to remember they were somthing like .99 cents a dozen.

It would take a real stretch to call them a hamburger!

Posted: 3/3/2001 1:38:35 PM EDT

Picked up a stray dog one midnight shift and since he was a friendly pooch, I let him ride with me. Stopped at WC and offered him some burger, wouldn't eat 'em. Smart dog, wonder what ever happened to him?

Posted: 3/3/2001 5:46:20 PM EDT

[#46]

I remember when they were a nickel at a stand on the far South-east side of Chicago. I used to get 20 of them for a buck and got the most magnificent case of gas in town.
This was over 50 years ago. Egad, I'm old!
