One more time.The Vegas move speaks volumes about NOT making religiously motivated expansion plans.

No one said that they made religiously motivated expansion plans.


This was my response to someone pointing out that the founders were religious.

That was just in response to your conjecture that their expansion plans are motivated by the perceived hipness and culture of a market and that, along with our politics, is "holding us back".


Opening in Vegas would be the work of a marketing department utilizing selective market expansion strategies to boost their project.

Absolutely. And it's clear that hipness, culture, politics, and, yes, religion, are NOT the driving factors of their expansion decisions.

One more time. They have 385 locations in California and the southwest. If there ever was an arbitrary cultural, political, or religious metric used in their expansion evaluations, they had to abandon or, at least, significantly alter them several times to get to that number.

Steam mine in the instant pot and it's about as close as I can get to driving to Missouri to get them.

Yep, we steam ours in a rice cooker from frozen, wrapped in paper towels, for 12 minutes = 90% same as restaurant.

And now I know what I'm having for dinner.... Provided the DG down the street has some in their freezer section. ;)

Just to throw some more evidence that in the burger wars its all just, like, our opinion, man is that I think White Castle is hot garbage. Harold and Kumar is a very apt movie because I'd have to be very high to find a White Castle burger edible.

And I've tried very hard to like them! I had the frozen stuff first and thought "gross" but, you know, its frozen stuff so not a good representation. But then I had some in Vegas and it was basically the same thing. But I thought, you know, maybe this is just some cheap Vegas cash in thing? I dunno, so I tried it in Chicago, a real classic looking White Castle with all the things and it was still very very bad.

and also i love in n out so

There is no in between on White Castle... people either love them or hate them

That's exactly what White Castle is. It's drunk/high food for people in their early twenties. I have a lot of nostalgia for White Castle, but last time I ate there I thought I was going to be sick and it wasn't the same as I remember when I was younger.

In person, we always get their fish w/cheese and jalapeno cheeseburgers (different cheese and added jalapenos), they're better than the basic stuff.

umm... i need more details. how long and what pressure?

I find it humorous that the frozen White Castles have a cancer warning on the box.

I think you can only get cancer if you eat them in California.... Which coincidentally is where In-N-Out is from.... Or is it a coincidence? ;)

No pressure... I use the steam setting on mine with the pressure release vent open.... 10 minutes

That's about right for the quality of the food. I do have a soft spot for White Castle though because it was a big deal for me in my early 20s. I just have to be in a specific mood.

White Castle sliders are one of the best OTC laxatives on the market today.

The canteen at the VAMC at the HSC carried them for about two years back in the early 10’s . They weren’t terrible as far as preservative packed pre packaged microwave burgers go. It’s the only place I’ve seen them west of Mississippi

Ate there once a few years ago and thought the appeal must be a nostalgia thing. Not about quality or taste. Also a lot of coupons and BOGO specials. You don't see In & Out resorting to those to boost sales.

WC is just a greasy slider burger fried with onions with a pickle on top fast food. It's not intended to be a gourmet meal. You should absolutely know that going in and not expect anything else. So I guess all the daily deals McDonalds, Wendy's, Burger King have on their apps are just a gimmick to boost sales. They must be doing something right because they are all bigger with more locations than In & Out.

I think White Castle could expand if they wanted to. The novelty is clearly there.

Wrote them last week expressing my desire for them to quite skipping our state. Here is the response:



Thanks for your e-mail and your suggestion to open a location in Oklahoma.

While our immediate expansion efforts in that region remain solely within the State of Tennessee, we truly appreciate knowing you'd like to see us closer to you! As such, we'll be sure to keep Oklahoma in mind as we continue expanding.

Thanks again for contacting us.

Sincerely,

Uhh, if we are in the same region as TN then we are screwed. Too far from processing plant.
