Has anyone considered what is in a White Castle Slider patty? Supposedly it is supposed to be 80% ground beef, but what is the other 20% that causes these burgers to work like a laxative? Well, though this is just speculation, I speculate that the remaining 20% isn't fat as normal, but instead pork, chicken, turkey, Asgard, and squirrel.

Last time I had a White Castle burger was over 40 years ago.

Nice to see ~something~ has remained constant in the universe. :wink:

White Castle mini-burgers (I don't really like the term "sliders") do a number on my digestive system. Not so much a laxative, but they give me massive gas and occasionally slight stomachaches. I generally stay away from those things, unless I'm drunk, have no other options, or in the extremely rare cases I get a craving. Or simply as a homage to the Harold and Kumar movie.

With all that said, their other foods are pretty good, and my body can handle them with no problems. I like their chicken rings (even though the product name sounds a little bizarre), french fries, onion rings, or mozzarella sticks. I haven't tried any of their fish products and don't plan to, although the pulled pork sandwiches they've been advertising lately sound kind of nice.

Beware the burgers. But yeah, like Aspie1 said, the chicken rings are fairly good.

Be glad there are no white castles in Canada. They're the nastiest "burgers" I've ever had. In fact, I don't know if I've ever been able to finish an entire one. My friends are crazy about them, and I've tried them at least 5 times. I just take one bite and spit it out. I think it's the soggy texture that ruins it for me.

I've worked at their headquarters! :D

I never dealt with the food side of their operation but it reminds me of a steak-um with onions diced in, onions on top, and the usual toppings. I'd imagine its the onions that lend their burgers to being a 24 hour experience.

The sweet potato fries are ace as well.

They are called "belly bombs" and "gut grenades" for a reason.....
