WTF eats Arby's?

Back in the 70s I think it was real roast beef. I went vegetarian in 1975 so I don't know about after that.

I like the curly fries you common WHORE

But they HAVE THE MEAT, OP!!!

My boss used to buy this for us at my first place of employment. It was nasty. I would take the sandwiches home for my dog to eat. Eventually, even he would tae a sniff and just walk away in disgust.

Those sandwiches look like Cheryl's beef flaps

This was a thread last month. And a thread the month before. Why do you keep making the same thread?

Interestingly, their pecan chicken salad sandwich is very good. They used to serve it on marble bread, but it's just as good with wheat. It's the best thing on the menu, as far as I'm concerned.

I do not believe that a dog would refuse Arby’s.

I ate there once on a roadtrip. My farts all night long smelled like that nasty roast beef!

R8 my dog did. At first he ate it. After a while he stopped. 100% true story. Even pets have their limits.

Great shakes

America's Roast Beef, Yes Sir!

The Roast Beef tastes fine with a ton of Horsey sauce.

I'm waiting for him to slip me his hot beef injection.

I'll admit up front, I'm a bit partial to Arby's since it originated near my hometown. It's changed quite a bit over the decades, but I think the initial concept was good. It was never initially a mainstream fast food chain. In fact, as a kid, I remember them having their roast beef under a heat lamp and slicing it to order for your sandwiches.

In fact, I just had a French Dip from them a couple days ago. Super simple, hoagie roll, a pile of roast beef, melted swiss cheese and au jus to dip it all in.

FAT WHORES REJOICE at Arby's!

I tried Arby's for the first time two years ago and it was good. I have always heard how awful it was so I never bothered but I like that it's not just standard burgers. They had a good chicken cordon bleu on the menu.

Barf, the pussy looking sandwiches are nasty.

I love Arby’s TBH. Their roast beef is fine, curly fries are fantastic, and their gyros are fantastic. I will single-handedly keep them in business, with my fat ass.

Their Gyros are the fucking bomb.

Does their roast beef stink?

Specifically where the roast beef sandwiches are concerned:

Before they discontinued their onion rings, I would add two of them to my roast beef sandwich (in addition to a bit of both the Tangy Barbecue AND Horsey sauces).

My favorite item is the cheese sauce.

I love the Horsey Sauce.

I could drink it by the bucket load!

As far as fast food goes they have the best mozzarella sticks of them.

R16 Dumb whores rejoice. That slogan is from Campbell's.

My God, is this a serious post? The gyros are terrible. We went there because our only Greek restaurant had closed and we wanted to see if Arby’s would do. I guess they’re okay if you’ve never had a gyro before. I do drive past the restaurant most days and there’s always a line of cars.

I simply cannot take a place seriously that has "Horsey Sauce" on its menu.

I won't eat fast food, no thanks

Beef 'n cheddar with curly fries! And horsey sauce. Add a apple turnover too.

I'm with R30 - except I ALWAYS have a bad trip to the bathroom after Arby's.

Their Gyro Lamb is quite sumptuous. I am heart broken that it is no longer 2 for 6

When I was a kid (Nixon was pres), Arby's had real roast beef which was cooked in a display oven. The sandwiches were excellent. Now the roast beef is just salty, processed frankenfood. I hadn't been to Arby's in years, but I tried the gyros a few months ago. Worst gyro ever. It was so dry and salty that I couldn't even eat it.

In the St. Louis area there's a fast food chain called Lion's Choice that I'm guessing is similar to the original Arby's concept, pretty much only roast beef sandwiches. It's really good, but a single sandwich has enough sodium servings for an entire week. Don't eat there if you're hypertensive/have high blood pressure!

R26 I know that.

If you're taking every word typed that seriously, you have to be the fattest, nelliest prisspot alive.

It's not on the menu, its on the condiments counter.

R11, are they roast beef shakes?

Their potato cakes are great.

There was an Arby’s years ago in my neighborhood but its reputation was so bad I never tried a thing from that place.

The joke at every local gathering when I was a kid was somebody would ask “Who’s hungry?” The reply, “We are!” Then someone would sarcastically suggest Arby’s and the whole place would retch, fake vomit, gag, and squat like they had the runs. Yeah, they were a real class act. Point taken without the sound effects and visuals. But boys will be boys.

Anyway, it’s long closed and I haven’t seen another one around in years. I’d be curious to try it now and see for myself. But in my neck of the woods, independent shops serving rare slow roasted shaved beef piled high on a buttered toasted bun with choice of sauces are an institution so Arby’s couldn't compete here and hightailed it out. One for the Indies!

When I was in college in a mid-Atlantic state (in the mid-1970s; do the math), I sometimes ate at an Arby's that was alongside the campus. I liked Arby's roast beef sandwiches and curly fries. I could eat like a pig in those days and not gain weight (my 30s put an end to that). But what I remember most is eating at Arby's while reading a letter to the editor in the campus paper complaining about homosexual men, whom the writer referred to as "friends of all guys, sweetie (FAGS)." I was struggling mightily to come to terms with my sexual identity at the time, and the fact that the letter appeared in the college newspaper, with no counterpoint from anyone, really set me back. I did subsequently come out to a few of my het college friends who introduced me to some other gay students they knew, which was a big step forward for me. On the bright side, my association of Arby's with that letter put me off Arby's, which may have saved me from dying of a heart attack or stroke from their fatty RB sandwiches and fries!

We unfortunately have NO greek restaurants in this town (an hour north of SF, no less!) and I like Arby's gyros. Unfortunately, I don't have one near to me, otherwise i'd definitely doordash that shit at least every 2 weeks.

Roy Rogers >>> Arby's.

It tastes like ass!

I don't eat meat, but the mozzarella sticks at Arby's are truly the best I have ever had. I love them. Their curly fries are also incredible. It's great junk food.

[quote]Back in the 70s I think it was real roast beef. I went vegetarian in 1975 so I don't know about after that.

My neighbor as a kid back then was a butcher and he said it was "beef", but it was pressed beef, like chicken roll so according to him it was never real beef.

R43 that's why the gays on here like it.

R6 - honey because this is as close to pussy lops as any DL-ers will ever get.

I actually like their French Dip. I know the quality of the meat isn't too good and have eaten it very few times. I worked with an attorney at a top-tier law firm who ate there each and every day at lunch no matter what. Seriously. So many things in downtown Los Angeles to chose from and this was his daily lunch. He also was a model for men's underwear and dated exclusively African-American women. How he kept his looks (dinner was booze), I don't know. Guess exceptional luck in the gene pool.

I'm surprised they have thus far stayed out of the supposed "chicken sandwich wars", and threw some pickles on it to copy Chick-Fil-A.

Their Chicken Bacon Swiss with Honey Mustard dressing is pretty good.

I worked at two of them when I was in my salad days.

It really is all down to the franchisee.

One was near a truck stop but we had a very bright, clean little store and kept it that way. Our managers and owners were good about food quality, the roast beef was good, and we sold a lot.

The other one was badly run, with roast beef that sat out in the light all day. Our owners were cheap old cunts who, if we threw out sandwiches because they were too old, woukd *fish them out of the trash* and rewrap them to sell.

Arby's maybe awful but the Nihilistic Arby's twitter is gold!

The Greek food truck in my city closes on Sundays and too early on weekday evenings for me to go there after work. Sometimes I have a craving for gyros and go to Arby's when it's the only option available. Not bad, but it wouldn't be my first choice.

I love it!

Keep waiting r14.

[quote] Barf, the pussy looking sandwiches are nasty.

We had better-tasting cat sandwiches on Melmac.

It's the ultimate comfort food. The beef and cheddar is so yummy and the curly fries are the bomb!

I was addicted to their curly fries back in my trainee fat whore days, the consumption definitely helped me reach professional level of fat whoredom. Luckily, didn’t sample the beef curtain sammie due to being vegetarian.

[quote]the curly fries are the bomb!

I'll say! It's like fucking Hiroshima and Nagasaki in here!

[quote] I like the curly fries you common WHORE

I don't know why but that made me laugh so hard I almost knocked a lung loose.

[quote] I like the curly fries you common WHORE

But do they like you?

R46, “the gays on here…”? It’s a gay site.

[quote] I do not believe that a dog would refuse Arby’s.

Ray Charles could tell that poster was just posting bullshit that never happened.

R2 = Betty Windsor

Arby's isn't any worse than gyro meat. Y'all need to get over yourselves. I haven't eaten it in a long time but I'd take Arby's over places like Jack in the Box, Del Taco and Taco Bell.

Years ago they had a temporary item, a beef pot roast sandwich that was AMAZING. No, it really was that good. and the sauce had just enough horseradish sauce to give it a little kick, but not too much.

If they brought it back I'd have one every day.

For you, OP.

FUCK TRYING TO PUT A LINK ON THIS BOARD!!!!! WHY MUST EVERYTHING BE SO DAMN FUN-SUCKING!!!!!!

The beef is roasted. The cheese is cheddar. The sauce? Horsey. Arby’s, where good taste is easy to recognize.

I know cat food. I've served cat food. I've eaten cat food. And you, Arby's, are no cat food. - Li'l Edie

I love their curly fries dipped in cheddar cheese. Hmmmmm

I still have about 15-20 of the DC comic superhero glasses that my family collected from Arby’s in the late 1970s 🙂.

R71 I wish fast food restaurants would offer glassware again. We still use the Arby's Christmas Goblets at Christmas.

It was never very good. That's why they pushed the sauces.

It's a nice alternative to all the other fast food joints, even though the salt content is through the roof. I have a big Ziploc bag of their Horsey and Arby's sauce. They're great on my own turkey or chicken sandwiches.

I’ve known people that keep fast food condiments in that same manner. It was a staple of the households of my youth. We must protect our precious food fluids.

The Jamocha shakes were good but I haven't eaten there since I was a kid in the 80's.

R76 As a doordash driver, I wish people would stop ordering shakes from there or anywhere. Especially, if they are going to bitch about it melting. Guess what if I have to drive a shake over 20 min to your house it is going to be at least somewhat melted.

Sorry, just a rant!

About five years ago I was at an Arby's and they were still slicing beef off of a huge hunk of meat. I can't tell you what that hunk was, but the meat wasn't pre-sliced and pre-packaged.

R77 - I bet you have a lot of cool stories about crazy people.

I always stuck with the turkey instead of the roast beef and enjoyed it. Loved the horseradish sauce and also the potato cakes.

R79 Not really, most are either grateful stoners, young mothers, or the elderly who just can't go out for whatever reason. The rest are entitled cunts that think I am their slave rather than a delivery driver.

I've had one person pull a scam on me, so now I'm more careful about what orders I accept.

The funniest thing was when I delivered two happy meals to a house and the woman was like "I didn't order anything." I showed her the order and the name. Turns out one of the kids had called their grandmother and told them they were hungry, so she ordered them doordash. The mom started yelling at them, "Damnit, I just fed y'all an hour ago."

Horsey sauce? Seriously?

^^^it makes blind men feel alive, goddamn it! Just accept it!

Horsey sauce! I love it! Neigh!

Invest in a small car freezer. You can even deduct as a business expense and no complaints and bigger tips.

Their roast beef is chopped, flaked, formed, and extruded. You can see air bubbles in it. Some of their other sandwiches are decent though.

I don't belong to the class of people who eat fast food.

You sure about that r49?

Anyway the last time I ate at Arby's was when they still served the Turkey Deluxe. Their turkey sandwiches now are not the same.

I rarely eat fast food, but if I do, it’s usually Arby’s. Their roast beef sandwiches are relatively lower calorie and I love them.

I loved the roast beef when I had it sixteen years ago. Now I'm going to have to revisit Arby's. I had forgotten about them, as they were not common in my city; only the one that I knew of, and no Drive-Thru. Out of sight, out of mind I suppose. Since moving in with my partner, I know there's one not too far away in the next town.

R39 What neck of the woods exactly has all these rare roast beef places? I MUST visit soon!

I bet Milo eats Arbys.

R39's anecdote made me laugh.

Eat Arby's what?

[quote]take Arby's over places like Jack in the Box, Del Taco and Taco Bell.

And I won’t take any of them

R94 - I bet you would if the guy at the drive-through was hot.
