Listening to Bo Bounds this morning - they called Arby's trash...
- Thread starter dawgstudent
- Start date
Dammit! No Kroger here.
Edit: I see it on Amazon and Walmart sites. Now. What fantastic news. Thank you good sir!!
Fast food joints (local to me) listed in order that I'd choose them:
Chic-fil-A
Cane's
Arby's
Whataburger
Popeye's
Wendy's
Zaxby's
Backyard Burger
Big gap
McDonald's
Taco Bell
Another big gap
Burger King
ETA that if there was a Taco Casa in the Jxn metro it'd be first on the list. (Where my Vicksburgers at?)

Taste wise and option wise? Arby's is good. Much rather be picking between Arby's and Tacobell, Chik Fila, and subway than McDonalds and Wendy's and burgerking.
But I do feel like they tend to be more run down. But don't go to a lot of them so maybe that's just location specific. Similar to Krystal's to me. Nothing wrong with Krystal's food and I actually like it, but damn they seem to be consistently poorly run.
If I walked into an arby's that felt like a Chik Fila, I think that arby's would crush it.
Roast beef is classified as ultra processed and contains half the daily amount of sodium.
It's basically a moist beef jerky sandwich.

Not a fan. Arby's is for when your hunger outweighs the memory of your last visit.
Love Arbys. Huge menu. Lot of good stuff. Love stopping at the loves and getting a beef n cheddar and curly fries for the road. Maybe a buffalo chicken slider
First, Not sure Chic fil and Cane's belong on the same tier. To the extent they do, Cane's smokes it. I'm a Chic Fil a fan and definitely like their chicken as a change of pace from Cane's, but Cane's chicken is better and their fries are at least average as opposed to Chic Fil as being below average. That said, I think I can eat at Chic Fil a for under $10. Can't do that at Cane's anymore.
Second, I think all the Vicksburgers (Vicksburgians?) and Coast rats should have to brawl it out over Taco Casa versus Taco Sombrero. May get banned for this, but the only things more consistently overrated are the square and oxford.
Third, you arent' giving Taco Bell its due. Taco Bell is good but it's tier one simply because it gives a solid break from the normal hamburger and fries if you are really on the road a lot and don't have the time or inclination to stop for better than decent food. The only knock on taco bell is that you can get actual mexican food for just as cheap and it's fast, but it's still not drive through and eat in the car fast food.
You shut your dirty mouth!**
It's not Taco Bell's food/flavor that I don't like..... I buy bottled Taco Bell sauce to keep at home. It's Taco Bell's reaction in my guts that keeps it so low.
First time I saw it in Kroger a guy had probably10 bottles in his buggy sorta whistling with glee as he was waling towards the self checkout. He also looked like the type of guy that would steal pockets full of Arby's sauce packets every time he ate there.
Maybe he said “Aubies” and not “Arby’s”. Will Hugh Freeze now tell ‘croots to sign with Auburn cuz they have the meats”?
Arby's is like the guy in high school who can't figure out what he wants to be. One day he's grunge, then a cowboy, then he's hip hop, then a hippie, but nothing sticks. Arby's used to be a place you could get 4 roast beef sandwiches for like a dollar. It was consistently good. Now they don't know what the hell they are. It's like they roll out a new identity every six months. "We have the meats." WTF does that mean? I still like it for the old-menu items like roast beef. And also Bo Bounds sucks.
The Bo Bounds show to sports radio is equivalent to the McRib at McDonald’s. It wants to be real but it’s fake and pretends to be something it is not.
You need help. I really feel sorry for you, your life must seriously suck.
If you pick Zazby's above Cane's you cannot be trusted.
You can buy Arbys and Horsie sauce at Kroger. They are both currently in our fridge.
My kids love the roast beef sliders from there. I like their brisket sandwiches and the chicken bacon Swiss sandwich and of course the beef n cheddar is always solid.
I've honestly never had Arby's a day in my life. I was always under the impression that it was in the same tier as Krystal and White Castle: garbage food you only eat when you're drunk.
But based on this thread, maybe my perception of it has been off for the last 30 years.

Arby's is solid and it is a very nice alternative to more traditional fast food. The big roast beef is good!
I like Arby's. They were better when Hardees pushed them in the roast beef business, but the Hardees/Carls Jr merger made them focus on burgers.
I don't get the love for Taco Bell. Also, Burger King has gone downhill....at least the franchises in this area. Wendy's has dropped a lot from the 80s when their burgers were "5 guys" quality.

I’ve never left Arby’s and said.. “I completely regret this. Never again”.
Captain D’s? McDonalds? Burger King? Said it.
Burger King is one of those places that I drive by and wonder how it exists. I don't know how it could possibly go downhill. Madison has a little collection of restaurants right off the main exit that I find unbelievable that they stay in business: Applebees, BK, Taco Bell, Chilis, Backyard Burger and a little past Walmart, Longhorn. Taco Bell is literally across the street from a really good mexican joint.
I think I could. Zaxby's in Madison is way salty, even for fast food. Abners across the street is noticeably better and better service. Slim Chickens I went once and the tenders were anything but and the sauce sucked.
The only thing I care about on the Arby's menu is the roast beef, and I'd give a lot for a 5 for $5 deal to ever happen again.
years ago.....at least 7......Arby's used to be my go to.....its not as good anymore....don't know what happened, can't really put my finger on it either....i feel as if its mostly bread and im chewing it till my jaw hurts...
I would invite anyone who can find it to post a gif of the Saving Silverman scene where Amanda Peet takes a bite of a Big Montana.
Name another fast food joint that has horseradish sauce that'll make your eyes water if you get a big hit of it.
Taco Casa has gone noticeably downhill since Rowdy Nosser died, I'm afraid to say. Still eat it but it's definitely not the same. Have had 5 different former VBurgers return and eat it and every single one of them immediately says "The cheese dip sucks now!"
Zaxby's is only good for buffalo tenders. Canes for fried tenders. Abner's (RIP) for grilled tenders. Slim chickens is good for sauces. Haven't tried Huey Magoo's yet but I hear it's good.
What the hell did Krystal ever do to you!? Their little burgers got me out of a sho-nuff DUI leaving the Silver STar late one night, so they'll always hold a special place in my heart.
