I have never worked up the nerve to eat there, and was just wondering what some of your opinions were on how it tastes.
Never had a gut bomb? Never chomped a slider? Do you know you could go blind?!
I love 'em. Especially the jalapeno ones.
HAVE I EVER BEEN THERE? Good lord, I can’t wait until the day I’m diagnosed with a short, terminal illness so I can eat there every single meal and not care what ravages it does to my insides.
ALL HAIL WHITE CASTLE. I crave a sack of ten, baby
j
mmmmmmmmmMMMMMMMMMM!!! I’ve had them lots but they dont have them here in Omaha . Kansas City, St. Louis and Chicago have them, why not Omaha???..ooo they are the greatest burger on earth(this is not a factual statement)

Love 'em, but only eat them if I don’t have plans for the next day…the onions and me don’t always agree, and everyone in a 3-block radius knows about it. (Krystal’s are better, but not available around here.) Good and cheap, but not for the onion sensitive.
Hell yeah, I’ve eaten there. They’re great! A little hard on the digestive system, but they satisfy like no other food can. The people who don’t like them just haven’t eathen enough of them. It’s an acquired taste, like fine caviar.
(Yeah, right. Who am I kidding? )
And if you get them without pickles, you deserve every pain that comes to you.
PICKLES OR NOTHING
Unfortunately, you can only get the frozen variety around here, and those don’t have pickles.
I wish I worked within walking distance of a White Castle.
Mmmmmmmmmmm… Sliders.
White Castle rules, especially after (over)indulging in the good drink. An added plus, the decor is tile and stainless steel, in case things don’t settle well…
Man, you just gave me an idea for dinner…
To hell with the evil pickle slices!
And give me mustard. It’s not bastardization if it makes it better.
-Cyni, who can eat a Crave Case if properly motivated.
He SAYS that, but 14 1/2 is the most we’ve ever seen him eat. Methinks the man is boastful.
I’m hoping to see Cyni and lno do a mythical 100.
Ah, Belly Bombers.
Alas, since going on a diet, I have shunned them, but sometimes a sack of five makes a perfect lunch for this road warrior.
For my money, the best White Castles I’ve had were from the establish on East Tremont, in the Bronnix.
Haven’t been there in a while, though.
In the South, we have Krystals, not White Castles. And I think my family keeps them in business.
Mmmmmmmmmmm. Two double cheese Krystals and a large fryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
Dear lord, how did I not see this thread earlier.
Those of you who want to read about my experience with White Castle may dig up my old pit thread about my rage burning with the fire of a million suns.
'course, I still have it on a regular basis.
jarbaby, you go to hell. Those pickles are evil.
Mr Cynical, you get up here to Minneapolis and we’ll split a mythical 100. It may take most of a day, but goddamnit, we’ll do it.
I remember quite distinctly my first trip to White Castle. I took my first bite, and thought to myself “This burger is awful, it almost tastes spoiled. I better send this back.”
Then I realized some people like White Castle because the hamburgers are so bad, it is good. Fortunately I didn’t get sick.
After that, I went back to White Castle twice. Once, when the movie White Palace was released. The second, I was sick of all the other fast food joints, and thought I give White Castle one last chance. The food was still terrible.
White Castle is definitely an acquired taste.
I’ve discovered the joy of 3 AM trips to White Castle. The people who work there are a hoot. The food is sub-par, but dammit, it’s GOOD sub-par.
And I love the sack of fries. (Side gag…my friend and I are altar servers at Mass at the Catholic school I attend. When the priest blesses the gifts, the blessing is “May the Lord accept this sacrifice at your hands…” We jokingly changed it to “Sack of fries” over dinner at WC one night, and ever since we’ve had to contain ourselves at every Mass we’ve attended since when the blessing is read.)
Of course, she neglects to mention that this was over the course of 17 minutes, and I was still going strong before they RAN OUT.
Shouldn’t it have been, to the point, that your anal was burning with the fire of a million suns? White Castle OD = O-Ring Blowout.
Hee! That said, we can do 100 over a day. I’d bet my undergarments on it.
