White Castle Serves Up Slider-Scented Candles


For Cravers who have found themselves relaxing at home wishing their room could be filled with the steam-grilled-on-a-bed-of-onions scent of beef, White Castle has answered the call.
To celebrate its 18th annual National Hamburger Month, the 89-year-old fast-food chain is offering up a candle that smells like a Slider.
And to really make it sell, White Castle says all proceeds from the $10 candles will benefit Autism Speaks.

Genius.

The candles are packaged in a ceramic holder resembling the signature cardboard sleeve of the White Castle Slider. They're available in select White Castle restaurants and on WhiteCastle.com

2. My dear MiddleFingerMom!
You're not supposed to eat the candle...

You're supposed to smell it!

But I know you already knew that...

:P

4. I suppose eating wax
even *tastes* better than some people's cooking.

3. I know a few people who would like that as a gift in a Christmas
stocking. I think it is perfect for that.

If I give those candles to my adult children, it would be funny. But they would find a suitable way to retaliate.

5. I know those who can make their own scent(s) from eating at WC.
It requires lighting matches, too. :hide:

Actually that's a cool idea for a good cause. :-)
