White Castle

Sorry White Castle. I'm not a fan. Why must everything be deep fried? Why can't you have a fruit cup or something healthy? My problem is my husband loves White Castle and every time we get near one he has to have it. I gave 2 stars instead of 1 because I had the fish sandwich and it wasn't too bad. But again, it was deep fried. I also had the deep fried cheese sticks which were OK. I just really wish there was a healthy option at White Castle. Maybe a little grilled chicken???

Westbound and down across western Indiana on Interstate 74 (I-74) west this afternoon - I'd missed breakfast due to some unforeseen delays - and now it was past lunch time - I knew I'd be pulling into some small, forsaken burg for lunch at some point.

Then I saw it - the Interstate signs that depict which food joints are at the next exit - all of the usual fast food suspects were listed - but also - White Castle!! I knew that I must visit the Castle! I exited I-74 into a small town named "Brownsburg."

It was just after 3:00 pm when I walked in - a couple of other folks were in line in front of me. I ordered one double bacon cheeseburger, one double jalapeno burger, and one fish w/ cheese and an order of Onion chips, and a caffeine-free Diet Coke.

When I got my food, I was a little disappointed, the sandwiches - all three of them were lukewarm - like they had been sitting out. I was expecting something hotter and fresher tasting. The Onion chips were fresh and hot - and nice and crisp. The Coke was icy and refreshing.

Somewhat disappointing given that I don't get to experience White Castle that often - when I do - I want it to be a phenomenal fast food experience!
