White Castle is scary. Maybe that's because the only one I've actually been in is the one that's open at 4am in St. Louis. Somehow, the active and pissed off (but routine) police presence didn't make it less nerve-wracking for the foreign dude.
Buffista Movies 3: Panned and Scanned
A place to talk about movies--Old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
I learned about White Castle from the Beastie Boys.
I have no White Castle exposure.
I remember White Castle commercials, where the WC truck driver would drive all across America, distributing White Castle to the poor folk who had no access to them on their own.
Always made me think of Invasion of the Body Snatchers.
I read a book that says they have a hole in the middle of the burger, to make it cook faster.
They have *five* holes in them which help them cook faster, and are also filled with onions.
Also they are not grilled. They are steamed.
Also they are not grilled. They are steamed.
Steamed hams?!
Steamed hams?!
"Aurora Borealis? At this time of day, at this time of year, at this lattitude, isolated eniterly in your kitchen?"
"Yes."
. . .
"Can I see it?"
We don't have a White Castle here...we used to have a Krystals but that closed up shop.
The only White Castles I've seen have been in the freezer section of the grocery store, but I've stayed far far away from those. "Fresh" White Castles sound bad enough I can't imagine what a frozen and then reheated one would be like.
My mind is highly suggestible. I am now craving fast food.
"Can I see it?"
Nnnnno.
I have never partaken of the freakish steamed onion burgers. They sound indescribably awful.
