Helen,

It is a fast food burger joint that is known for making little burgers, usually 4 of their will equal 1 on of the other guy's burger. Here is a link. Big part of pop culture here in the states.

What You Crave | White Castle

Bill

Thanks Bill!

Good idea if you can only eat very small amounts and are dying for a burger! Can you order just one though or do you have to have a portion of 4? It's ok if you have the family with you and they can finish off the leftovers although it's not very good for them and they are expanding as quickly as I am shrinking lol!

Helen,

Yes, you can order one or 100. I am one of the "weird" ones that doesn't like them - but that is because they are steamed with onions and I don't like onions. When I lived in Indiana (they don't have white castles west of the Mississippi, I don't think) and everyone wanted to go there, I'd get their fish sandwich - it was really good. I think I may be one of the only ones in the US that don't like their hamburgers!

Oh yeah -In and Out burgers are GREAT -- and they have them all over the place here in LV - including one less than 2 miles from the house ... only thing with In & Out (TMI here) is that they give me (and Bearded too) HORRIBLE gas ... not sure if it's the burger or the fries ... haven't eaten there since surgery.

Helen, White castles are a very small hamburger or cheeze burger. The Buns are like a dinner roll. Very soft white bread. The meat patties are square like a large postage stamp. they put chopped onions, grilled if you want on and that is it. No sauces of any kind. there are little packets of ketchup and pickles and mayo you can add your own. The whole thing is steam cooked. All very soft and wonderful. Horrible for you I am sure! It is a chain of fast food places in the Mid west and Eastern part of the US. I do not thave them in California. I have relatives in Michigan. Hence my knowledge. White castles were the cure for a hangover when I was of that inclination. We can get them here frozen from costco, but, they are NOT the same. All the restruants out here are making "sliders" little tiny hamburgers, but, really good ingredients. Excellant for sleevers. Only, three of us need to go eat one plate of them. hahaha. It's all good.

Ky-Hen: congrats to you! I will be joining you by Christmas. (I am a"teener" today~218~) missed 19! Happy happy happy us.

They sound alright! I looked at the link Bill sent and didn't quite get what 'sliders' meant but it is all becoming clearer now. I have never been a fan of burgers, even pre-op I was never much into that type of food and if we ever went to MacDonalds I would always opt for chicken or fish. Fast food tends to make me feel bunged up and sluggish! However, very occasionally I have had the craving and would love lots of fried onions and ketchup on it. I haven't seen anything like that in costco over here so maybe they don't think that they would appeal to the UK market - good idea for kids' parties though!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
