Welcome to an unofficial, unendorsed web page dedicated to those great little hamburgers with the trademark five holes - the one and only White Castle Burgers. Seems that everyone either loves or hates them, but EVERYONE has an opinion on them. My exposure to the pungent lil burgers began as a child, when an occasional treat was the family trip to the local White Castle at Lexington & University Ave. in St. Paul, MN. Years later, one of my first jobs as a naive 16 year old was at the White Castle at 4th & Central in Minneapolis (replaced by a new White Castle with a sacrilegious drive-thru years later).

One of the high spots of working there (aside from the free food) was the people. In fact, my best buddy and roommate at the time still works at White Castle, after almost 30 years! (The absolute best memory was Terry's little brother toilet-papering one of the White Castle district supervisor's house in St. Paul late one Halloween night).

Please e-mail me your favorite White Castle story or your best creative name for White Castle burgers. Best story received by January 1st receives TEN free tasty White Castle Burgers! Second place receives TWENTY free tasty White Castle Burgers! PLUS - Have your name & story immortalized on the Internet!

	Princeton University's White Castle Eating Contests Learn about White Castle's roll in Higher Education today!  It can get kinda slow during Dead Week, the days between the end of school and the start of Reunions. (Hence the name.) Among the Band's activities is the Annual White Castle® Meat Product Tolerance Competition. After rehearsal one night, we head up Route 1 to White Castle in the hopes of setting new individual and team records for hamburger consumption.
	Online Petition to Bring a White Castle to Downtown Chicago Currently there are no White Castle restaurants in downtown Chicago. Please bring White Castle to downtown Chicago.  There are 62 White Castles in Chicago. But zero in downtown. White Castle's website even states "White Castle's medieval motif was inspired by Chicago's famous Water Tower." Yet there is no White Castles within 4 miles of Water Tower.  The downtown area would prosper greatly as a result of an infusion of White Castle Slyders®. Bring White Castle before we get "steam-headed!"  We greatly urge White Castle to establish a firm position in the downtown area to help "Feed the crave" of all local workers and tourists.

	Selling 'em by the Sack Perfect for your coffee table! A scholar's lively account of how White Castle, now a largely overlooked but still profitable also-ran in the domestic restaurant trade, made the once-scorned hamburger a US institution and launched the fast-food industry. Drawing on a variety of sources, historian Hogan (Heidelberg Coll.) first reviews the ethnic and regional character of America's food preference to the 1920s. He goes on to document the accomplishments of the two men who founded White Castle late in 1921 in Wichita, Kans.: Walt Anderson, inventor of the hamburger, and Billy Ingram, whose marketing genius helped make Anderson's creation a staple of American diets. On the strength of standardization, quality control, a commitment to cleanliness, and conservative financial practices, they soon had a lucrative national network of faux-citadel outlets vending tiny ground-meat patties served with an abundance of pungent onions on diminutive buns for a nickel apiece; enjoining customers to ``buy em by the sack,'' the partners also pioneered the take-out business.  Informed and engaging perspectives on an often ignored aspect of cultural and commercial Americana. The 20 illustrations include contemporary photos of White Castle outlets and the company's early advertisements.
	Harold & Kumar Go To White Castle A new movie from New Line Cinema. In the great cinematic tradition of Road Trip and Dude, Where's My Car? comes Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle, which follows two likeable underdogs who set out on a Friday night quest to satisfy their craving for White Castle hamburgers and end up on an epic journey of deep thoughts, deeper inhaling and a wild road trip as un-PC as it gets. John Cho (American Pie 1 & 2) and Kal Penn (Malibu's Most Wanted) take on the title roles in the film directed by Danny Leiner (Dude, Where's My Car?) written by Hayden Schlossberg & Jonathan Hurwitz.

	Ohio Historical Society's White Castle Collection In observance of its seventy-fifth anniversary, White Castle System, Inc. recently donated a collection of corporate memorabilia and inactive company records to the Ohio Historical Society. The collection includes four primary types of material--newsletters, audiovisuals, artifacts, and manuscripts. The major newsletter file contained within the collection consists of issues of the White Castle House Organ covering the years 1925 to 1978. Printed from November 1925 to December 1926 as the Hot Hamburger, this publication, concentrated on news relating to employees and included features such as promotion announcements, articles on longtime staff, and notes and photographs from employees at various White Castle areas throughout the country. Other publications on file include the Home Front, a newsletter that was printed for employees at corporate headquarters in Columbus, and the General Letter, which was distributed to field personnel and included notes and articles on advertising, building plans, and corporate departments.

	The Grumpy Gourmet What is a Slyder? At times they sustain my midnight life when writing. Six Castles and a half bottle of good Burgundy can produce a readable 750 words. Six White Castles constitute health food in my hamburger world. There's good reason. A White Castle is not as pretty as a TV Wendy's with edges of red tomato flopping over the edges. Castles are not visually appealing as a Big Mac with limp iceberg and its required 285 tasteless sesame seeds to clog my colon. I've long contended the only people who like sesame seeds on a bun are photographers who give them visual texture. Join my Slyder cult. Once annually for more than a decade I have refreshed myself by judging the White Castle recipe contest.
Recipes
	White Castle Cheeseburgers There are only three ways to regard White Castle burgers: to love them, to loathe them, or to have never yet tried them and so not to know which of the previous two attitudes is yours. (I personally loathe them, but I recognize that that's simply an individual quirk rather than a mark of superiority over the burgers' fans. It's like having a particular eye color or shape of earlobe; it helps people classify you, but perhaps not very usefully.) If you don't like them, you will go to great lengths to avoid having to eat or even smell them; thus you are probably grateful that for most people, avoiding them is quite easy. You don't go in the restaurant, you don't accompany friends when they do, you don't buy them in the freezer case or other perverse places they are increasingly available outside of the traditional white shack. (Five years ago, my husband bought one on an Amtrak train, of all places. He would place himself in the third camp, since, while he didn't care much for what he ate, he doesn't think the Amtrak microwaves accurately replicate the restaurant cooking process, so the unsatisfactory burger can't be considered representative. But he hasn't made much effort to find them since then.)

Reviews
	CitySearch Cincinnati's White Castle Review White Castle looks, for all intents and purposes, vaguely like a Lego-land version of a small, white castle. You'll see the blue and white castles all over Cincinnati and if you're within a mile of one of the restaurants you'll smell them, too. The ambience is fluorescent and greasy; your typical fast-food joint.
	Northwest Indiana Restaurant Review White Castle - a truly unique dining experience. Yep, It's time for another totally low-budget restaurant review, since NorthwestIndiana.com does not pay for my dining excursions.  And if you're pinching pennies, it doesn't get much better that White Castle. Been a while since you've been to White Castle?  Come on.  Do it just for fun.  Down some Slyders.  Next time everyone is in the car, deliberating over Chinese ("Oh... we had Chinese last week.") or Mexican (No, Shannon doesn't like Mexican."), just stop the madness and insist that you all go to White Castle.
