White Castle Sliders

White Castle Sliders are small, square hamburgers that are a signature product of the White Castle fast-food chain, founded in 1921. They are known for their steamed, soft buns and thin, square beef patties, typically topped with grilled onions and a pickle slice. These sliders are often sold in packs of 5 or 10 and are a staple of American fast-food culture.
