    @Fred19Flintstone‌ I don't know brother. I bet Taco Bell will give them more than a run for their money. It's instant toilet time just smelling them!!
    I know what you're saying.  Taco Bell will clean you out, but IMO the White Castle belly bomb is the most powerful laxative allowed by law.

    Man, if they weren't dry enough, your indirect setup surely put them over the top.

    Next time, I'd suggest a drip pan full of apple juice, and inject them with some Texas Pete's.

    I appreciate the warning. I have never tried White Castle. I'm going to heed your advice and warning and steer clear of them!

    Alright beer drinkers. Let's be honest. Maybe not still but you can't tell me there wasn't a time in your life that Taco Bell or White Castle was not the food that you craved most at 2:00 in the morning. That stuff tasted great when you were too hammered to even read the Egg thermo.

    Oh man @SGH, you have to at least try White Castle. I will agree with you that I can't eat much Taco Bell anymore but White Castle at least is good before it provides the colon cleanse.

    Brother I think I will pass. I can't stand being confined to the toilet. I would rather take a beating than have a up set stomach.

    When I pledged a fraternity oh so many years ago, a small part of initiation was to eat a bunch of White Castle belly bombs.  I wouldn't do it.  They let me swallow a goldfish instead.  I swallowed it gratefully and would have swallowed more to stay away from the belly bombs.  I got off cheap!

    Damn. That's pretty close to senior week except instead of a load in my drawers I had "insert here" with an arrow in the requisite spot and a penis on my face, all drawn with permanent marker. I even had my shoes off! Man, my friends were dicks.

    My first ever cook on an egg was a hot pocket. Pm I worked with gave me an old small with no fire ring and I had nothing else to cook but couldn't wait.

    I hear ya brother. Most of the time the egg improves the taste of food dramatically. That being said it makes me question if what they are serving is even food. When sassafras won't mask the taste it's bad. And by the way hot pockets are actually very good cooked over oak on the egg!

    I would gladly chose the goldfish myself. How bad could it be really? We know that White Castle and Taco Bell are awful. The goldfish is probably a treat next to them!!

    I'm telling you a fact that I believe I would chose the goldfish myself. At least you could swallow it in one gulp.

    I guess I should ask. What is the belly bomb? Is that what it's really called or is that a name given to it for what it does? Just curious.

    I knew them as sliders when we lived in Chicago. Ate there just once, and only once, in the 8 years I lived there. It was enough!

    I'm presuming the belly bomb is a burger of some sort?

    You buy them by the sack. Little 2-3" square little things with a little wafer of a patty. Steamed. And it slides right through...

    I googled White Castle belly bomb. Seems they are also known as Rectum Rockets as well. They must be tough on the digestive tract to earn such horrendous nick names.

    I am stunned that @nolaegghead‌ did not point out that they were also called Rectum Rockets. I'm impressed that he could refrain but stunned nonetheless!

    After working overnight on a rancid walk-in cooler I don't frequent Taco Hell. I'll take the egg meal evertime. ;)
