The $400 White Castle Burger Is Small But Classy

WhiteCastleSlider21

White Castle hamburgers are classy… we know this to be true. But if you’d like to make them off-the-charts sophisticated, you might try something like the $400 White Castle Slider.

Created by Nick over at Dude Foods — the very expensive slider is made possible by adding 15 Year Cheddar, white truffles, duck foie gras and port pâté, prosciutto, Russian caviar, and a quail egg to the already awesome slider.

The taste-test result, as Nick describes it… terrible. But he seems to be more than pleased with the aesthetic of the slider, describing it as his “Mona Lisa.” Sadly, this means that there will be no Crave Cases of these. Just in case you had $12,000 to spare.

Get Your Pallet of 7,000 White Castle Sliders

When one, or a sack, of White Castle sliders just aren’t enough, the fast food chain is now offering an entire shipping pallet full of the ‘burgers.’ Interested? Well, the Crave Pallet of nearly 7,000 sliders will run you $25,000.

But, before you balk at the asking price, the burgers come in choice of Original, Cheese, and Jalapeno — with all net proceeds being donated to autism research. As a bonus, you will also receive 216 White Castle-scented candles. Just in case the smell of 7000 sliders wasn’t enough.

White Castle Is Now Taking Reservations For Valentine’s Day… No, Really

This Valentine’s Day, say it with a bag of cheeseburgers. White Castle, one of the most polarizing fast food establishments ever, is now taking reservations for the most romantic night of the year.

And if a sack of sliders and/or chicken ring sandwiches isn’t enough on your special day — reservations also include personal table service, ‘charming’ decorations, and a photo of the lovely couple. Hurry, tables book quickly! Their words, not mine.
