Why are mini hamburgers called "Sliders"?

The term was original just for White Castle hamburgers, because they slide right through you.





AKA "belly bombers."

Why are mini hamburgers called "Sliders"?
lol, white castle. But I think its more about how your body "digests it"
Reply:Only White castle ones are true Sliders. It's because they are small and greasy, and they slide right down your throat, and then about 45 minutes later, they tend to slide right out the other end.
Reply:White Castle did not invent "sliders". I know the military has been using the term sliders for hamburgers for a long time, because they are greasy and slide. Hot dogs are "rollers"
Reply:Because of the box theyre in. they just slide out and you enjoy.
Reply:I think Krystal's calls them that too. If not, oh well.





I think its so you know that those "burgers" aren't beef...they slide right through your digestive tract and into the crapper.
Reply:Only ones from White Castle. It's one of their marketing terms.
Reply:Not always but in most places. Some use like a rost beef sliced instead of ground beef. Just ask or read the description
Reply:its just a fun name for them. they used to be made from a special dough/bun with grilled onions, but now the name is just really common.
Reply:Not just Minis...White Castle. I guess the company calls them that cuz they like to think they go down easy and are so great! Truth is...well ...that's not the truth. Think about it
Reply:Because they are usually so coated in grease that they just slide right down your throat!
Reply:the ones from white castle are called sliders because they literraly just SLIDE them into a mini box that fits the little hamburgers
Reply:I think just the White Castle ones are sliders.
Reply:same reason subs are called hoagies and sandwiches called grinders. and it is not just white castle, I sell them where I work.
