The [White Castle](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/white-castle-1921) [1921 Slider](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/1921-slider) is being launched by the brand as an old-fashioned sandwich option for patrons to try out when seeking a satisfying way to satiate their hunger. The burger features a 100% beef patty that's seasoned and seared to perfection before being topped with cheddar cheese, caramelized onions, Roma tomato, pickles and lettuce. The burger is being launched with a buy-one-get-one promotion for members of the brand's [Craver Nation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/1-impossible-slider) loyalty program to take advantage of.

The White Castle 1921 Slider is arriving alongside the new Coca-Cola Crème Soda, which is an exclusive refreshment only available at the QSR brand's participating locations. The burger and soda pay homage to the brand's origins and are likely to be favored by consumers seeking an old-fashioned experience.
