Chile Heads,

Living in Santa Clara County (Silicon Valley) California for years,  I
had never heard of White Castle hamburgers until a man who worked with
my husband (former) who was from Ohio raved about them.  Apprently he
wasn't the only affionacdo!  Because special orders in truck loads
came (frozen) and were delivered to people by the case  to pop into
their freezers. There was as much excitement among lovers of White
Castle as though they were buying tickets to a sold out rock concert!
