That thought crossed my mind but there are certain things you do not ask someone you just met and this is one of them.
I still can't get over how nice these coins were - not worn out slicks by any means - high VF, some maybe better. One of the Trade dollars looked nicer than the one in my 7070 I think.
I got the Combo #1 which is 4 sliders (I added cheese), fries and a Coke. We had a buy one get one free coupon so my wife got the same thing minus the cheese. She took two of hers home though. We will have to see what happens to those two abandoned burgers...
Quote: Coins schmoins -- How many sliders did you eat?
The most I ever ate at one sitting was 6.
When I was younger my typical meal was ten. Now I seldom do more than five at a time. Growing up there were three White Castles within five miles of my home. Today the closest one is fifty miles away so I only get them once a month. We pass it on our way to a coin club meeting. They've gotten a lot more expensive though, I used to get them for 12 cents apiece. My father used to get them for a nickel.
I will usually get 6 if I don't get fries although 4 and an onion chips is also good. My wife's family has a tradition of getting White Castle for lunch on Thanksgiving, the story being that the kitchen was off limits that day and nothing else used to be open on Thanksgiving back then. I think partly my father in law just liked White Castles. We still typically do that, especially when we are hosting Thanksgiving.
There is no way anyone could possibly eat the quantity of White Castles that Harold and Kumar ordered at the end of that movie. Maybe Joey Chestnut.
My father who grew up in Chicago remembers them being $0.03 a piece, that was in the early 1960s. Everybody had a meltdown when the price jumped from $0.03 to $0.05.
When I was a little girl we lived on the southwest side. My father would get a couple of sacks of sliders and drive the family over to Midway Airport. He'd park near the airport fence and we'd sit on the car, eat sliders, and watch the planes come and go.
Sometimes we saw as many as 10 plane in a half hour.
