Mike goes to White Castle

Mark and I went to White Castle today. As you may or may not know, it was my first time.

We had just eaten breakfast about an hour before, but THERE IT WAS. I had to go right then.

We ordered the 10-pack "Big Crave". It came with 2 sodas and 2 orders of fries. (Fun Fact: "White Castle Fries Only Come in One Size" - The Beastie Boys)

Observations:

- The sliders taste a lot like the microwave ones.
- They weren't nearly as greasy as I had been warned.
- I thought the restaurant would be gross and tacky, but it was modern and pleasant.
- The fries were really, really good. I was not expecting that.

I vacuumed up all of my food. Mark saved two sliders for later.

It was a big moment for me, and I'm so grateful that I was able to experience it, but I have a confession to make:

I kind of never need to go there ever again. :)

When you visit out here, we are SO going.

I think I just gained 5 lbs. reading this.

sliders are best appreciated when the diner is intoxicated

And sanity prevails! :)

Since I was wondering. :-)

5 sliders = 700 calories and 30 grams of fat
1 fries = 390 calories and 24 grams of fat (assuming the medium sized fries, they do come in 'saver' and 'sack' sizes too)
1 Large Coke = 420 calories

Total: 1510 calories and 54 grams of fat.

Whoo hoo!

I eagerly await tomorrow's journal entry, which will probably say things like, "My ass is on fire!"

Whee!

I'll take White Castle over Jack-in-the-box, or In N Out, any day.

Please keep us posted as to the after effect of them. They're called "sliders" here for a reason. LOL

As you may or may not know, it was my first time.

Does this mean Mike lost his cherry at White Castle??
