Vegetarians craving a case of burgers after last call can now torture their bowels like the rest of us with a case of veggie sliders from White Castle. The chain gave Grub Street the news that they're making the menu item official as of today; sadly, there are only three outlets left in all of NYC.
The patties may be of the Dr. Praeger variety but that's not confirmed. We do know, however, that the offerings will be "chock full of lots of vegetables like carrots, zucchini, peas, spinach, broccoli, and more." AKA, every child's worst nightmare. Burgers can be customized with ranch, sweet Thai or honey mustard sauces.
Welcome to the fast food fold, vegetarians.
