I prefer Krystals to White Castles. White Castles always seem to be soggy to me. Of course that didn’t stop me from eating six or seven driving down I-40 this weekend. As I’ve said before these little burgers might be the best roadfood for driving as there is little danger of getting goop on your shirt. I think Southerners often prefer Krystals while those from the Northeast prefer White Castles. I guess it’s just what you grew up eating.

White castles are indeed more moist from the steam cooking through them (and they put the buns on top of the burger while the burger is being steamed)

Here you can watch how they do it, step by step (flash presentation)

But yes, I think one is more comfortable with what one grew up eating, regardless of whether it was better or not.
