Default What makes a 'slider' a 'slider'?

Yikes <vbg!>. A very long time ago while in Indianapolis not too far
from the Speedway (er, perhaps 25-years ago?), there was/is a White
Castle. Since I'd never had a White Castle burger/slider before, I just
had to try a one. Nasty, nasty little things, and I never had another
again (whew!!).

White Castle "sliders" have been available in many grocery stores'
freezer sections now for quite a few years. There is now way I'd even
consider buying those slimey things unless I were paid a LOT of $$$$$
But that's just me, heh. A lot of folks must like those 'things' or
else many White Castle franchises (whatever) would've gone out of
business years ago.
