Every so often, the White Castle will offer garlic cheeseburgers. The "cheese" (which is really a cheese product) is a garlic flavored American and it is to die for! Other than online, I've not been able to find that cheese anywhere. Any hints?

I can't imagine peanut butter and Velveeta........but I couldn't imagine peanut butter on celery until I tried it. Mega-YUM!

White Castle. YUM! I wish we still had one close to us. Even Krystals here closed and I LOVE Krystals hamburgers. I have to know go to Georgia or NC if I want a Krystal's hamburger.

ok, i was tired, i actually was born in New York, but spent most of my childhood in Ohio!

i absolutely cannot stomach White Castle - it's the smell I can't get over. Which is kind of funny because my absolute favorite cheese is Pont L'Eveque and it smells like old socks!

Yup, I live in New England and my parents raised me on Cheddar Cheese and Apple Pie... For Breakfast...

Cracker Barrel was the cheese of choice in the Brodie household...

for us, it was Vermont cheddar. My mom was raised in Vermont and would never eat anything different.

another thing that I abosolutely love but can only get in Rhode Island and Conneticutt (I know I spelled that wrong, sorry!) are clam fritters. We used to go to Aunt Carrie's down on the Rhode Island coast each year and I always got those. That is also where I found out about clam bellies. Sandy muck, yuck.

We did an event at work the other night and I bought all kinds of cheese. Our local grocery store has a cheese department to die for. There's a dedicated employee int he department to help you with your selections - they even have a binder full of information about the cheeses. I ended up with some brie (a standby), some wonderful edam, along with Leiden - a lovely mild Dutch cheese with cumin seeds - and Drunken Goat, which is goat cheese soaked in red wine. YUM!

I LOVE White Castle, but you can't find them out west. There was a failed attempt many years ago to extend the chain out here and Californians just didn't get it.

My folks are from St. Louis, so I guess my love of WC must be genetic!

I've been known to buy the frozen ones when I have a mad craving, but nothing compares to fresh Sliders!

It's one of those things that when you gotta have it......YouGotToHaveIt!!!

I love WC! I've never been to an actual chain but I've had the frozen ones.

I have a recipe for White Castle sliders if anyone wants it.
