    My Dad refers to White Castle burgers as "belly bombs."

    Now I know where you get the straight shootin', tell it like it is attitude from. :)

    WC belongs in this conversion about as well as Rosie O'Donnel belongs in a Victoria Secret catalogue. I've had soybean burgers out of vending machines that I might put on par with WC.

    Tony, I have to warn you: unless you change your attitude towards White Castle burgers, I'm afraid I'm going to have to pencil you in for a sound thrashing about the neck and shoulders with a big stick.
    White Castle burgers have been scientifically proven to be the Nectar of the Gods (t.m.). Good, not only for dinner and lunch, but for breakfast, too.
    Yep, mention "Belly Bombers" around here, and people know exactly what you're talking about (and with proper appreciation and reverence).
    Crave Case ? Oh, yeah !

    FWIW, the frozen white castles at the grocery are bang-on if you don't over-microwave them. Just sayin' if you're a fan.

    Ahhh, burger joint talk. Love it. Couple of my all time favorites:
    1. Doggie Diner in beautiful Woodridge, IL. Family owned and operated since I was a snot nosed hellion growing up in the Chicago burbs. I hope it's still there.
    2. Yeah Burger in midtown Atlanta....pricey but excellent with pretty much any topping you can think of.
    3. I'll throw in White Castle because I miss it soooo much....and Krystal down here completely blows.
    4. Ate at Habit a couple times out in LA....very good.
    5. I used to like Fuddruckers but again....really none down here. Generally speaking, the food in the SW Atlanta burbs sucks.


    Doggie, is still in the same spot. I have been going to that place since 1981. They have added a few stores but the original one in Woodridge is still there. I was actually over there this past weekend for a Breaded Steak.

    That is very cool they are still there... we used to walk over there from Jefferson Jr. High as kids.

    I'd have a hard time shelling out a 50 for a burger, when I know I can get a darn good steak for that 50. Glad you liked it though, everyone needs to try Kobe at least once in their lifetime.

    Kobe, the only meat that gets hand massaged to make it soft.
    The best way to predict the future is to invent it.

    It is imperative that we recognize that an opinion is not a fact.

    I just realized that while mildly intoxicated last night, i butchered "resurrection" and hoped spell correct would catch it.

    I was wrong and feel ashamed.

    That is funny. I'm pretty sure that statement isn't just for Kobe... ;)

    Lol, so I guess the burger with flogra was a burger with foie gras!

    Ok, must admit I needed help to spell it myself...

    Yuck....never could understand the hoopla over duck liver. Give me the whole dang duck, keep the liver. Give it to another duck that needs a liver transplant I say.

    So instead of a few junk cars in the front yard, you've got a pile of 40 foot motorhomes that don't run in the front yard?

    That duck liver killed that actor visiting Europe when he ate 2 servings. I don't recall his name right now. The stuff is out lawned in some states.

    James Gondolfini was his name. Just googled

    that's scary because Gondolfini was about 250-300lbs and i'm only 175lbs.
    Am i going to die?!?!?!

    I'll tell you this, it still feels like i ate a brick.
    It was a good "one and done" experience. Kinda like Meth or a fat chick.
