The BurgerCandle
[It] comes in a rectangular ceramic holder that resembles the cardboard box of the White Castle Slider sandwiches. They sell for $10 each, with net proceeds going to Autism Speaks.
A New York candle power-house helped create the flame-broiled scent. Laura Slatkin and her company, Nest Fragrances, typically design luxury bath products for the likes of Christian Dior and Vera Wang.
But this time, the Chelsea-based firm is helping out a like-minded fast-food company - both she and the heads of White Castle have kids with autism.
“The candle has a top note of diced sweet onions and crisp pickle, the middle notes are beef patty, cheese and ketchup, and bottom note is a warm burger bun. It all comes together to create this amazing aroma of a White Castle Slider.”
The candles have been selling like, well, hotcakes, said a spokesman for the Columbus, Ohio-based company, immortalized in the hit movie “Harold and Kumar Go To White Castle.”
“We thought we had a two- month supply for online sales, but they were gone in 48 hours,” said Jamie Richardson, a vice president of corporate and government relations. He projects the company will raise more than $50,000 for the nonprofit.
Ok, it’s more of a “steam table” scent than a flame broiled one if memory serves me correctly, but a burger scented candle? This is a total reversal. I’m sure it’s just what you need when you’ve been cooking up too much bayberry, vanilla, or patchoulli. Or when you leave the Gladed Scented thingy on too long and you want to balance things out. And it would be a really mean trick to play on a vegetarian or someone on a diet.
You know what I want to see next? A pastrami sandwich candle. With a strong top note of freshy doughy rye bread. A hint of a New York deli Kosher garlic dill on the side, and a mild middle note of some fresh sharp horseradish. Maybe with just a smidge of a Dr. Brown’s celery tonic on the side.
But I’m just using the story as an excuse to post pictures of pretty girls who look a bit hungry in their own special way. Girls with clothes on! sorta.
I love it when you light your beefcandle just for me!
Can I get fries with that? Later on?

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:
It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
- Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
- Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
- Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
- Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

Oh, and here's some kind of visitor flag counter thingy. Hey, all the cool blogs have one, so I should too. The Visitors Online thingy up at the top doesn't count anything, but it looks neat. It had better, since I paid actual money for it.
