Thrashers – A Food Stand in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware

I’ve had a long time to think about Thrashers, and you know what? I still don’t get it.

When we went to Rehoboth Beach, I did the typical thing that any tourist would do–Google must-eat things in area. Thrashers was the place apparently. It was touted as the “must-do” because if you didn’t, then you missed the point of going to the boardwalk. Okay, well then. Go to Thrashers.

My fiancé: “Why did you keep taking pictures of me ordering things at places?!”

The only thing Thrashers served was French fries. Also, you had to salt them yourself. Oh, and you could douse them in vinegar if you so chose.

Did you hear that? The must eat thing in all of Rehoboth Beach was French fries. Add to the fact that this was the treat of choice on the beach and I was done. Do you know how unappetizing hot fries on a hot beach are? Or how heavy they are? You can’t have these while wearing a bikini. You just can’t.

Putting vinegar on fries… Just like the locals.

Which is probably why the girls in bikinis weren’t eating French fries… But this pasty skinned dough girl (me) was the one carrying them around. Go figure.

There were Thrashers stands everywhere too. On every corner. I guess I’m just too West Coast to get the appeal.

  1. The first time I ate at Thrashers was in Ocean City Maryland and the only thing I kept thinking was how much they taste like home fries. People have been making home fries in the south for centuries so I couldn’t understand why this was a coveted Northern thing.
    I also thought it was funny how they didn’t serve catch up because if you ask to put ketchup on their fries it was an insult.
