Your heart burns for White Castle sliders? This product's for you.

The Ohio-based burger chain is selling a slider-scented candle throughout May to commemorate National Hamburger Month.

The white candle is packaged in a ceramic version of the cardboard White Castle sleeve.

I like what you have on your homepage. What we are currently experiencing shows the need to revive entities that investigate Un-American activities.

I don’t recall the name. They had several different kinds of burgers (burger, cheeseburger, with bacon, maybe a “california” etc...) I never managed to try all of the burgers, I only was introduced to the place my final year living there but it was a burger joint.

The inner sleeve for The Dictators “Go Girl Crazy” LP (Epic, 1974) is a shot of the band at the counter at White Castle.

When in Chandler, AZ, This is the place. The quadruple bypass is not for the faint of heart.

If you need a good cleaning out, WC is the best!!!

Maybe not the same place ‘coz this was a chain and while good, also featured steaks.

My sister and her son moved from Southern California to Pennsylvania, and my nephew missed In-n-Out burgers so bad that when sis visited me, we’d buy a dozen burgers and freeze them for her to take back to him.

Now I live in Ohio, Sis lives in California again, and Nephew has to depend on her or his brothers to send him the burgers.

Burger-scented candle? Ewwww.

[HamiltonJay]

The fact Californias think In Out Burgers are good is just more proof the place is the land of Fruits and Nuts IMHO.. they are ok, but certainly nothing to be going gaga over.

Once in a while I will put some mustard on them. Just a touch.

White Castle Liturgy

Gutbusters, gluies, stomach bombs, sliders:
Let us name the little square things
with their five stigmata inexplicable.
Not respectfully.
Their sanctum is no cardinal's cathedral
but a stainless porcelain & shining steel temple
where pure spirit meets impure food
and martyrdom is a matter of digestion.
Only street-corner bodhisattvas can swear
to the holiness of this liturgy
It's the idea of the thing, the form,
so mysterious to snobs and dilettantes
that is sacred to these fast-food militants.
They choose by act of faith, of will
by bun and burger to take their sacraments.
And in the glow of a greasy fluorescence,
in the giddy gothic modernism
of drive-in battlements and streamlined sandwiches,
they give themselves over to steamy ecstacy.
