White Castle- 75 years and still slydin...
{Photo: White Castle)
I thought this was amazing. A New Jersey White Castle location is 75 years old this week, one of two White Castles to reach this venerable old age. From the press release:
During the week of July 4 - 9 the Castle will be in proper celebration mode with balloons and streamers decorating the Castle. Customers will be treated with cake throughout the weeklong gala and a local radio station will be at the Castle on July 9, inviting customers to stop by and join in the celebration! The White Castle home office sent their congratulations out to the Castle by signing a banner that will be displayed. Customers will also receive customized magnets (while supplies last) if they visit the Castle during the anniversary to serve as a reminder of the Castle's celebration.
How about that picture of the Slyder above? That's the first slyder I've ever seen that wasn't dripping with grease, but that's part of the charm, I guess.
Giving away magnets. How tacky. Heh.
There weren't any in my area when I was growing up but I've had a few. Is White Castle part of your burger heritage?
