Episode 207: White Castle Cheeseburgers

Posted by: Gregory Ng: The Frozen Food Master


The Frozen Food Master has had many a White Castle Cheeseburger in his day but never one from the freezer aisle. The steamed burger patties, the onion flavoring, the patented 5 holes. It’s all there in the frozen food version of these notorious burgers. But will they be a good choice for those who have never tried White Castle before?

    Harold - No.
    Kumar - I gave mine to that asshole at Princeton. Fuck! Fuck that hippie fuck!

    Kumar - No, no, no, no!
    Niel Patrick Harris - Guys, let me pay for it. It's the least I can do.
    Harold - What the hell are you doing here?
    Niel Patrick Harris - You guys kept talking about White Castle last night so much, it made me start to crave it, too.
    Harold - Dude, where's my car?
    Kumar - Where's his car, dude?
    Niel Patrick Harris - Yeah, sorry about that.I told you last night I was tripping balls. I don't know what came over me.
    Your car's in the parking lot. Here are your keys.
    Kumar - Do you realize what the hell we had to go through after you took the car?
    Niel Patrick Harris - Yeah. It was a dick move on my part. That's why I'm paying for your meal. Prick.
    Harold - Thanks, I guess.
    Niel Patrick Harris - Here's 50 bucks for the burgers and 200 for the car.
    Harold - What happened to my car?
    Niel Patrick Harris - I made some love stains in the back seat. You'll see. Anyway, nice meeting you guys. I'll catch you later.

  • Name
    I haven't watched any of your videos in awhile and I was shocked by the weird, dyed faux-hawk thing you have going on. Get rid of that at once. You aren't 18-years-old anymore.
  • I have not had White Castle, but I do love me some Krystal. Anyone?

    Sadly I do not have access to either now that I am on the west coast. This review may be enough for me to put pride aside and buy these next time I am at the store (along with my Amy's meals).
  • I hit up White Castle a couple months back and got a TON of stuff to sample. I've never had the frozen food version but I'm very curious to see how similar they are. Identical you say? Hmmmm.
  • MattUD
    I guess these won't be for me, I am not a fan of onions. Just like Ms. FFM I need some pickles on my burger too!

    Ugh... White Castle... I *hate* White Castle. Gristle and rotten onions... no thanks!

    I do agree with you on one thing though; these frozen White Castle burgers really do taste the same as the ones you get from an actual White Castle "restaurant" (if you can call it that). This frozen product was actually my first experience with White Castle burgers, years ago... I couldn't stand them... and later, when I had the misfortune of tasting them straight from the restaurant, I found that they tasted exactly the same as the frozen ones. Interestingly enough, I found the buns on these "burgers" to be sort of stale and waterlogged in both the frozen and the restaurant versions.

    I actually do enjoy the flavor of grilled onions on a burger; so the onions themselves aren't the reason for my intense hatred of White Castle (although the quantity of onions is a bit too much for my liking)... I think that the onions taste and smell rotten, and the burger patties are made up of more grease and gristle than actual meat, which incidentally seems more like a generic "meat paste" rather than anything resembling real ground beef. Okay... don't want to think about it anymore... must repress the memory...

    One final note: I'm only giving my own opinion here, based on my own personal taste, and taste is *always* subjective... I mean no disrespect to people who like White Castle, and everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

    (Although in this case, my opinion happens to be the right one.) :P

    I can has REAL cheezburger now, plz? :)
  • Ok, now you have peaked my interest! I'm going to go get some White Castle and some frozen White Castle and do a direct comparison. I am curious just how close they really do come. If real Whit Castle is better you have to come to Indiana and share some with me ;)

    So glad you reviewed this!
  • I can honestly say I've never eaten White Castle sober. In my clubbing years back in Jersey I still remember rolling through the WC drive-thru after the bars had closed and getting burgers and fries with that fluorescent orange cheese on top. Good times.
