Poll question: White Castle or Taco Bell (A gun is to your head)
White Castle is also known as Krystal for those of you in the South.

1. White Castle
I know people who've worked at Taco Hell and heard way too many horror stories.

2. Neither White Castle nor Krystal here...so Taco Hell it is.
I only eat one thing at Taco Hell: the basic bean burrito. It's the one thing they can't screw up.

14. Just the name "sliders" sounds gross.
I don't want food that slides that easily.

39. I grew up calling them ratburgers.
I love them and it's one thing I've missed from Columbus (Ohio) - well, that and my Dem vote in a red state.

On the plus side, they don't have In-n-Out burgers in Ohio.

Having said that, I've recently become a vegetarian and I quickly forget that I'm not allowed to even eat that stuff so nevermind.

28. The last time I checked . . .
. . . Taco Bell was yummy good tasting.

There is nothing wrong with the Taco Bells in my town. Never made me sick, or anything.

8. Bean burritos please.
They're just a bunch of bean flakes with water added, so they're almost good for you, actually.

30. White Castle is very similar to Krystal. And count me in on
the White Castle/Krystal vote over Toxic Smell

If I want something resembling Mexican food, I will just go get actual Mexican food. Where I live the choices are excellent and abundant

But we don't got no stinking White Castle or Krystal!!!1 Now I have a craving.

13. I like Taco Bell!
I wouldn't want to eat there every day, but I like it occasionally. White Castle, OTOH, is inedible garbage. I bought it once & my dog wouldn't even touch it. The smell alone makes me ill. I'm afraid I'd have to choose the gun over WC. :nuke:

15. Murder Burgers!
and then the inevitable unfortunate aftermath.

There's a Taco Bell near me that actually shares a parking lot with a real Mexican restaurant. There is no competition between the two. That pretty much explains it.

17. Here's a secret: Dennis Kucinich likes Taco Bell
It's the only fast food place you can eat vegan if you're in a hurry and have no other options. Scandalous isn't it?!

47. It is pretty much the best choice
Edited on Sat Feb-19-05 02:50 AM by Radical Activist
for veggie types, as far as fast food is concerned.

18. I'll take the stomach cramps that come with Taco Bell.
Because White Castle is horrible and death is not preferable to the runs.

31. I've actually gotten things I liked at Taco Bell
But all I ever got at White Castle was heartburn.

Besides that, when I was in high school, the local biker gang used to hang out at White Castle, so my mommy always told me to avoid the place. It's hard to get over something like that.

32. A case of wanting what you cannot have?
I think it is...

most of the posts above want Whit Castle A$$burgers.. or Krystal equivalents...


but the POSTERS cannot have them.. because the establishment is not available!


That says it all right there... Toxic Smell/Hell is everywhere!! and although it's a Mexican food substitute and not Mexican food... it aint bad & there is a broad selection.


hmmmm... The Bell <gong> Yo Quiero! :bounce:

34. Never been to White Castle.. are there any in LA?
That's Los Angeles, not Louisiana.

God, though, if one of the options was Tommy's I would have been all over it. I always said "pshaw" about Tommy's when my boyfriend raved about it. Finally, he got me a chili burger and chili cheese fries, and.. seriously... soooooo good.

So, all hail Tommy's! Part of why he rocks so hard (that, and he got me a Rueben from Jerry's for a redeye flight a little while ago. My apologies for the people next to me, but damn it was good.)

My usual: eight soft-shelled tacos drenched in fire sauce.

Yes, I will not live past 40.
