    I don’t get the hate for Arby’s. The brisket sandwich and their sauce are good as fuck. Maybe it would have made a difference back when they first started and were like 5x more expensive than the competition (their signature sandwich was $0.69 when the next most expensive fast food was $0.10) 🤔

        I had an ex who was so excited to take me to Arby’s for the first time. It was gross. I held my tongue as she went on about how much she loved their horsy sauce and cheese stuff, but it was nasty. She had terrible taste in food.

      It’s all just salty processed meat block. It’s absolute shit compared to the real thing. It’s like they are advertising fancy German brats and then serve you a hotdog.

      Yeah I fuck with Arbys, that sauce is dope and the Jamocha shake is pretty good too.

      I have a thing for bad gas station food too though so I might not be the best judge.

        I dunno, some gas stations have good shit. Had a pre-packed Italian sub from a Loves truckstop that blew most sandwich chains out of the water. Loves is kinda cheating as far as “gas station food” goes tho.

            Ive heard of Krispy Krunchy chicken in a shell gas station before, i dont remember it being very good tho.

            There’s a chain called Huey Magoos that is pretty good. Zaxbys is great too but the nearest one is like, a 2 hour drive from me

            Chicken strips are exactly what I was thinking! We have a “Chesters Chicken” attached to some of the gas stations here that have these big battered potato slices, they’re almost a meal by themselves!

      I have a standing theory that people that hate Arby’s used too much horsey sauce, or gets older dry meat repeatedly. I don’t love the place, but they don’t deserve that much hate.

        1. Go to Arby’s

        2. Get their roast beef sandwich

        3. Stop by the grocery store

        4. Get REAL horseradish sauce

        5. Go home or wherever, put the real horseradish sauce on your roast beef sandwiches, enjoy.

        Arby sauce and their “horsey” sauce are garbage. Their actual foods are mostly fine.

      The curly fries are good if you can get them hot and, y’know, cooked all the way through. Arby’s is very consistently disappointing as an experience.

      Well, I don’t go there for two reasons -

      • Their vegan options don’t seem that interesting.
      • They don’t seem to have a presence in the continent I’m on.

      It’s not top notch, but depending on what you get they have some gems. The buffalo chicken sandwich is super simple and good.
