For grins and giggles I bought a box of frozen White Castle brand
cheeseburger 'sliders'. I'll be having two of them for dinner along
with some potato chips. Don't ask me why I like them. In Memphis we
had Krystal's, which were pretty much the same thing. It's been a
couple of decades since I had either one.

I think these will make an easy occasional lunch to take to work. (The
breakroom has a full kitchen.) I'm in the process of building up a
supply of *homemade* freezer meals for lunches.

I like those too, we made home made ones two weeks ago,
rolled out the ground meat and put the five holes in
each patty, then steamed them on a bed of re-hydrated
onions. That's a unique taste for ground beef patties.

The buns are the hardest thing to duplicate.

In the future, we'll probably be eating a lot more highly processed foods - if the past is any indication. I like modern foods. I can wake up early in the morning with low blood sugar and reach over for a Choco-pie or muffin that was baked months ago and adjust my levels. How great is that?

I like them, too. But yes, it was Krystal's around here as well. Gosh, how
I loved those things!

I haven't actually been to a Krystal's since I was in my early 30's.
Sometimes on a Saturday night after going out with friends we'd meet at
Krystal's for some tiny burgers and I often got a cup of chili. We'd
eat, then call it a night. White Castle is pretty much the same except
they managed to expand to having a frozen food line.

Krystal burgers are different from White Castles,

Not in my experience. Krystal's are square small burgers with holes
poked in the meat, steamed onions, steamed buns. Very similar. The
only difference is Krystal adds a slice of dill pickle on top. I always
asked them to leave it off. I hate pickles.

and frozen White
Castles are a pale imitation of the things you get from the restaurant.

Well, I've never eaten at an actual White Castle restaurant. The frozen
sliders are very much like what I recall from Kristal's "restaurants".
I'm not recommending anyone else eat or buy them. Just saying I had a
couple of them for dinner tonight. With potato chips.

Krystal's don't have the 5 small holes, White Castle's do. But yes,
Krystal's do have the dill pickle and I ask them to leave them off
as well. No cheese, either, please.

My DIL was just talking about them last week.She said they are pretty
good for a quick meal. I'll have to pick up a package. It is good to
have something like that on hand for when you don't feel like cooking,

White Castle burgers have 5 holes in them, and are fried with the buns on them to soak up the grease!

We called then ShitBurgers when I used to eat them years ago.

It's probably a copycat recipe I saw for Krystal's that mentioned poking
holes in the meat using a drinking straw. Be that as it may, they are
so very similar despite Bryan's claims. Please leave off the dill
pickle. And for you, the cheese. I don't plan to eat these things
every day.

Today was one of those days I simply didn't feel like cooking. (I've
got a pot of mixed bean chili and a skillet of cornbread planned for
tomorrow.) Tonight, a couple of sliders and some chips... done. They
recommend microwave them from thawed, wrapped in paper towels. The
result is steamed, just as they were intended. I was surprised at how
nice they were.

I had a box of those last week for the first time in 8 years - the
jalapeno Cheese ones. You have to add a pickle chip and sqwert of
ketchup to them.
