    White Castle cancels 'fine dining' on Valentine's Day...

    Love at White Castle just got canceled. Thanks, Omicron.

    The burger chain's restaurants in select markets have long held a special dining-in experience on Feb. 14 for lovesick couples who want to remember their special day with $1 burgers and french fries.

    In years past, White Castle would add a few romantic touches to its restaurants, transforming them into "fine dining" rooms, complete with reservations, hostess seating, tableside service and plenty of festive red décor, rather than its usual no-frills tiled floors and blue-and-white tables and chairs. The company said the unique setup drew as many as 30,000 people to participating regional locations in 2018.


    But as the highly contagious Omicron surge continues, White Castle announced Tuesday it won't be doing the event at all this year.

    I've never tried them. However the meat in those burgers is about the thickness of thick sliced bologna! How processed does the beef have to be in order to be that thin and not fall apart? It must be extruded.

    They add enough onions in hope you don't ask "Where's the beef?".
