At last, burger-scented candles

The White Castle fast-food chain, based in Columbus, Ohio, is selling the candles for 10 dollars, with all proceeds going to New York-based charity Autism Speaks.

Tastefully, the candles resemble a packaged burger. The wax is encased in a ceramic holder that looks like the traditional White Castle cardboard sleeve.

The candle has been released to mark 'National Hamburger Month', a month dedicated to the celebration of hamburgers that appears to have been invented entirely by White Castle themselves.

What about a beer scented one?

Ick. That sounds terrible to me. At least it is for a good cause.

I am a candle freak, but I steer clear of the ones that smell like food. They always make me want to eat. At Thanksgiving, I will put out a pumpkin pie candle, but that is it for me. A burger one? No thanks.
