The White Castle Burger-Scented Candle Benefits Autism Speaks
Jim Todd — May 9, 2010 — Art & Design
What better way to celebrate National Hamburger Month than to make your entire house smell of onions with the White Castle burger-scented candle? Just be sure not to eat it.
Although they are currently sold out, the White Castle burger-scented candles were running for $10. The proceeds will go to Autism Speaks, an autism science and advocacy organization. I do have to admit, this is good marketing. If your house smells like White Castle, you're going to want to eat there.
