Excellent listen throughout, but you can skip to 17:30 for competition with McDonalds.

    If you go to Nashville you can go to a white castle and a krystal burger to compare. theyre only a few miles apart.

    nearly identical, but theres definitely a difference

      As an aside, I will never trust a southern company that has replaced the “c” in their name with a “k”. It is suspect.

      Loved Krystal Burger growing up. Seldom got a chance to eat there. Now I live in a place without them.

      Of course it was bad for me, but at least it tasted really good. Fast food now is unhealthy and most of it tastes like dogshit. Which is probably a good thing as it keeps me away.

      Gotta shout out the Jersey City White Mana, inventor of the slider. Possibly. That’s what they say at least. I don’t know.

        I went there a few weeks ago before a trip to Manhattan and it was legitimately great. Reminded me of Montreal’s DicAnn’s.

      How would you compare it to In-N-Out?

        Completely different style of burger. White Castles are little sliders that are cooked by steaming them. You can buy them in a 30 pack if you want.

          They’re also pretty gross tasting with a 90% chance of diarrhea afterward. In N Out is more like McDonalds with a tiny menu and better quality ingredients.

            I think more accurate is that White Castle has an incredibly polarizing flavor. More than almost anywhere else I’ve ever eaten, people either love it (some even become devotees and will travel across multiple state lines to get it, and their Valentine’s Day special event books up months ahead of time) or they hate it (as, apparently, you do). It’s almost exactly 50/50. There might be like 1% of people who are like, “yeah, I mean, it’s ok.”
