My brothers and I used to call it “D*ck in the Box”, but not where either parent could hear.
Used to be a White Castle where I lived in Massachusetts. There’s nothing like the burgers that they served. Thick, juicy char-boiled burger, fresh tomato slice and crisp onion. First bite, grab the napkin...
But, these places are a rarity today. And they probably don’t belong within the genre of “Fast Food”...
Then how come as I drive across America the place is filled with corn???
Good subsistence food for peasants who care nothing about mad cow disease and high fructose corn syrup. And they probably take EBT cards (food-stamp debit cards).
Freep-mail me to get on or off my pro-life and Catholic List:

I know a guy who lived on eggs, rare beef, coffee, cigarettes and whiskey for 106 years.
He once had a wife that badgered him about those things, but he outlived her by 40 years. Rancher in North Dakota.
Everyone knows that Little Caeser’s is the best food value in all of history. :)
I remember when Der Weinerschnitzel came to town in 1968.
They had $.05 chili-cheese dogs.
I used to order 15 of them and eat them on my 15 minute lunch break in High School.
Next Lent, I hope that Hardee's/Carl Jr has their GRILLED fish sandwich again. Best fish sandwich ever! A bit small, and a bit expensive, but it was really good, and NOT deep fried.

Three bucks and some change for 2 McDoubles and a large ice tea. Great for long road trips. Last all day.
I hope it still works if you skip the smokes.
“How about the foods that kept us from dying off as a species?”
Pretty much just meat and fish.
Nope. You might have to make a few sacrifices in that area.

It must have been a different White Castle than I have ever seen. WHite Castle cheeseburgers are steamed over a bed of onions and served with mustard and steamed onions. I don't think I've ever seen a tomato at a White Castle,and I know I've never seen crisp onions at once - they steam them all. We used to buy the 'suitcases' - 24 in a box.
It is a McMuffin / Quarter Pounder With Cheese hybrid that is only available about that time of the day because they are transitioning from breakfast to lunch.
They all know what it is and I highly recommend it.
You've never actually owned a dog, have you?
