White Castle - Si

Crystal - a poor comparison to White Castle

Count me out. I'd like fewer chains, especially fast food. Sorry, just being honest.

I'm thinking that the Country Clubs offer the best value for food and beverage. Who needs fast foods with all the sodium? Need that like a heart attach.

We always called them "gut bombs" where I grew up in Georgia! I can remember getting 10 for $1.00!

Sliders in our world. LOL

White Castle's are all over up here in Ahia. "Belly Bombers", "Sliders/Slyders", "Rat Burgers", and ...........(wait for it).......... "Rectum Rockets" are some of the arguably hilarious burger nicknames tossed about in these parts!!! Definitely an 'acquired taste'!

Bill. Bill!

You are from Central Ohio, where I thought, until someone told me on this forum I was wrong, that White Castle started.

You can't have switched over to Crystal.

oh. I am so disappointed in you.

And P. Turner...I have to disagree with you on this one. White Castle please!

If I can't get my White Castle fix, then Krystal is the next best thing. But if I remember correctly, Krystal doesn't steam the rolls with the burgers like White Castle does so you don't get that really good "mushy" roll taste with Krystals. I know that they're an acquired taste, but sometimes I just have to have some sliders!!

Everytime we go to Paddock Mall in Ocala I stop at Krystal's, I like them more than any hamburger even White Castle. They are just past the Mall after the Kane Furniture Store. I became a fan when I was stationed in Savannah, GA in 1972. We would often stop when coming back from the beach since it was on the way and it was a drive-in restaurant back then.

I'm also a fan of Steak & Shake, they're not the same but still very good as well as great fries. Growing up in St. Petersburg they built a Steak & Shake drive-in restaurant near my high school and it became our hangout on the weekends. It was such a huge place we would have a couple of hundred cars going through there on a Friday night and they had to have security guards directing traffic.

I think they have the best strawberry shakes in town!

We have McDonald's, Wendy's, and Johnny Rocket. Definitely DO NOT need anymore chain hamburger joints in The Villages area. They may taste like the old days you remember but look at the health aspects. Loads of grease, empty calories, and bad cholestorol that none of us need. Add in a large order of fries and a milk shake and look at the total you have consumed.

"Yeah, but it tasted good." were the words put on the tombstone.
