Arby's - the very best in fast food restaurants
I make it a point to avoid fastfood places but about once a month I gotta have me an Arby's Roast Beef Sandwich with a side of Curly fries plus plenty of their Horsey sauce.

Damn, it just doesn't get any better than Arby's

2. Hey, I had prompt service and they gave me extra packs of Horsey Sauce
I'll save those for some of my healthy eats

7. I never take issue with where people eat
I was just saying that as a warning of what you can expect. :D

3. Arbys is the Olive Garden of the Cracker Barrels of the world
I dont mind Arbys, but I prefer Taco Bell or Wendys when I want to get fat.

13. Clearly you live in a world without Arby's
Because only a true Arbyist would understand why it needs to be Horsey sauce

22. I pity him really
Of course I come from the school of thought where we mix the Horsey Sauce with the Arby's Sauce...oh and put so much on that when you put the bun down the sauce leaks out every side equally so it' dripping everywhere.

9. When I lived in PA I was rarely around any Arby's
there was one in Lancaster that I would pass on the way to visiting my mother and I hit that up a few times.

But I think Arby's is like the official fast food restaurant of Delaware - they're everywhere!

12. He would drive 40 miles if needed for a 5 for $5 deal. He eats two
and then takes three to lunch the next day. He loves them with salt. I like the Melts.

14. As fast food places go, Arby's is pretty decent. My only gripe is
that they don't have any salad-type items on their menu. It's a pain when you're trying to do low-carb and all they have are big, bready sandwiches and fries. They do have wraps, but I think those taste nasty!

They're actually pretty good, too.

29. We used to have them here, too. And then one day they were
gone - I don't know why.

15. Jamocha shake
I also patronize fast food extremely rarely, but Arby's has a really good drink called a Jamocha shake. I used to get that with their curly fries and a small roast beef with some of the spicy red sauce they have. Haven't eaten there in years though.

25. Yum. Jamocha's are still good.
They have really good fresh theme salads (the Nantucket has cranberries and almonds) now, too, and some healthy sandwiches, although I still have to get the roast beef.

16. Arby's has a great turkey sandwich and a great
chicken cordon bleu. I have to admit, it is my favorite fast food place. Unfortunately, there isn't one real near me.

Their Horsey sauce is Delicious!!

20. Oh hell yes. I'm soooo with you on Arby's...
...Although I like the Beef and Cheddar, loaded down and dripping with Arby's Sauce.

21. Market Fresh Roast Beef and Swiss!
My favorite Arby's menu item.

Really good whole grain bread... Not really 'low carb,' but low-glycemic carbs!

Plus, Arby's is a largely blue company, innit?

24. George W. Bush himself could be CEO of Arby's and I'd still go there
Ok, perhaps not, I do have some standards

23. They actually have RELATIVELY healthy and fresh food.
Edited on Mon Aug-07-06 02:02 PM by Hissyspit
This was a conscious decision on the executives' part and, if you are going to go to a fast-food joint (and you shouldn't :P) you should go to Arby's and show support.

Just don't get any of the deep-fried stuff.
