What IS That In My Burger

It's green and on a bun. 

It smells like a hamburger but I'm not so sure about that!

 I can identify the individual ingredients!

Let's play Eye Spy:

 Peas, corn, carrots, green beans, soybean and a whole lot of green stuff.

Here is another hint:

One of these things is not like the others.

One of these things does not even compare.

Do you know now?

YES, a Veggie burger from White Castle!

This is what a White Castle normally looks like.

It's small, about a three inch square, cooked on a bed on onions

and tucked into tiny cartons that nestle into each other in the

bag or case.  They are a St Louis tradition, usually about 2 AM,

but in my case on the way home from work.  

In my opinion you must eat them with an Orange Drink.

It's not soda, more like Hi C.

My husband called from the neighbor's house and said we were

hanging out there Friday night.  I said I'd pick up dinner.  

Now every time we're with this couple someone says,

"We should go get White Castles!" but the nearest one is

20 miles away; however, I was passing right by it.

   So, it was decided.  White Castles.

I stopped in Eureka, MO and picked up a Crave Case 

because you just never know  how many sliders everyone is 

going to eat.  (My limit is about 3-  with cheese)

 I got a combo case- cheese/no cheese plus picked each person 

up a Fudge Covered Brownie on a Stick!

I did not stop there.  No sir- I do it up right!

They introduced White Castle Veggie Burgers.

Could they be good? 

 Probably not, but we have to see for ourselves.

I added 4 to the order.

The verdict is in.

Tom (hubby):  They taste like onions but nothing like a burger.

Kathy (me):   You have to be kidding!  They have (ewww) Texture

and I see beans!  And Corn!

Laura: takes a tiny bite- no

Dennis:  Takes a bite.  Takes another bite.  Shakes his head.  A huge NO.

The vote is in.  Absolutely Not!

BUT WAIT- there is more!!!

I forgot Beau's vote:

WONDERFUL, GIVE ME MORE, CAN I HAVE ANOTHER,

ARE THEY ALL GONE, THANK YOU FOR THE BURGER,

I LOVE YOU.  CAN YOU GET MORE!!!!!!

I must tell you that Beau is a mix of Great Pyrenees and Australian Shepherd.

His sister, Bella, guards the goats but Beau hangs out at the house

and watches over any of the babies that need human care or currently, the

pregnant mom that is temporarily housed in the smaller shelter

next to the house.  The burgers were a big hit with him!

Warning: for those unfamiliar with White Castle, they are

referred to as Belly Bombers or more recently Sliders.

The patties have five holes in them which allow them to cook more rapidly.

They are cooked on a thick bed of onions causing them to steam

and the bun is placed on top of the cooking burgers so the flavors

seep into the bun itself.  They are known to have some side effects.  

You may not want to eat them with polite company 

or if you plan to spend any length of time with polite company after you eat.  

Fortunately, my neighbors don't fall into that category so we OK!

Big news folks.
