On a late night journey for Lucky Strikes I passed by the local White Castle and allowed a rare "oh hell no" to escape my lips, for I saw they are now serving clam strips. I'm sure that in truth Satan spat up somewhere and the WC gained exclusive rights to reproduce and sell it, but until the lid comes off of that secret I guess they're gonna try to pass it off as clam.

Has anyone yet had the jean beans to try this stuff out? I can't imagine them being anything less of a devastating dual assualt on your taste buds and digestive system.

Man, supposedly Nathan's Coney Island has them and FROG's LEGS TOO. That stuff is OLD . I mean they had HOWARD JOHNSON'S with Mac and Cheese and Clam STRIPS....I do Beleive 42nd had a Howard Johnson's. Not Sure if still there. Old Howard Johnson's Hotels had Restaurants with Mac and Cheese.

"White Castle has clam strips" is the most ungodly phrase i've ever seen in my life.

I freaking love White Castle. Especially their onion rings. We don't have any in our area, but anytime I'm traveling and see one I always make it a point to stop in.

Back in 1996 my friend Mike told me that White Castle was "...a moving experience!" and then in 2002 Ben ( yes, Ben, "the prince.org guy") said they were really greasy and unique and unfortunately they didn´t have any in the Bay Area where he lives, so I got curious, drove to the one near Snelling and University Ave and tried them....

Disgusting stuff !

I mean seriously, what´s the big deal about White Castle ? Am I missing something here ? Why do people love them ? What´s so special about their greasy, smelly little mini burgers ?

Anx said:

can we PLEASE delete this thread?

Every time I see the title I throw up a little.

i think if anyone is ever burdened by unwanted advances by someone at a bar or at a party, all you have to do is whisper in their ear, "white castle has clam strips", and they'll leave you alone.

Anx said:

okay, now QUIT posting on this thread. I need it to go away!

NO.

This thread must be seen. Someone out there has to have tried them, and I want to know what the subsequent hospital stay was like.

HobbesLeCute said:

DAMMIT HOBBES!

I'm sorry. I can't back away from this now.

I hope this doesn't effect things between us.

Do you like
white castle' clams?

I do not like them,
Sam-I-am.

I've never been to a White Castle.....they're not around here. I've seen the frozen burgers in the grocery stores though and noticed on the box that they have little bits of onions on them that's why I never bothered to try them. Long John Silver is selling lobster bites now. It sounds good, but coming from a place like LJS....I don't know about that. Their other stuff is ok, you know for cheap seafood, but lobster is a little too elegant for LJS

scary but absolutely true: if i ever decide i don't want to be a vegetarian anymore, the first thing i would want is a bag of like 24 white castles.

You know it won't be real lobster though. It will be that fake stuff with the red dye on it.

SPEAKING OF, I read an article a few weeks back that that very red stuff, is actually made from crushed bugs. It's also in lots of juices, ice cream, make-up, frosting, etc. It's made from some red beetle in South America.



I was going to start a thread about it but then, like always, thought better of it because I knew it would die after 5 minutes anyway like all my other threads.

Anx said:

I love Krystal's little burgers and chicken sandwiches. I think they're pretty much the same as White Castle.....well I'm sure they're processed the same way.

minneapolisgenius said:

Yeah, I'm sure it won't be real either. LJS is too cheap for that. I eat imitation crab sometimes, but I don't know if I'll be eating it anytime soon you know I been heard about the whole cockroach/lobster connection, but for some reason it hasn't turned my stomach enough to keep me from eating lobster

AnckSuNamun said:

i've never seen those! but after 18 years, i would want the real thing. i'd pay a little extra for a bona fide white castle, it's worth it (how much are they now, like 65 cents? ).

AnckSuNamun said:

I do love lobster, but I really can't eat it anymore. I feel too bad for them.

I just had a really weird dream about a lobster about to be sacrificed about 4 days ago and then it turned into a blonde haired baby boy that they killed instead. Then TODAY, check out what was in the paper:

http://www.cnn.com/2006/T...index.html



A new BLONDE haired lobster was discovered. Coincidence? I think not.
