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 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.

[-] FeelzGoodMan420@eviltoast.org 4 points 2 years ago

I had Arby's one time, and it was terrible. I would go to literally any other fast food chain over Arby's.

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.

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.

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 3 points 2 years ago

I've heard people and seen videos of people comparing Arby's curly fries to Jack in the Box curly fries and I'm over here like "they're literally the same."

[-] Zorsith@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 years ago

Ohio's weird, I don't know that we have a jack in the box in the state

[-] nomous@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

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.

[-] Zorsith@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 years ago

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.

The best fried chicken strips I've ever had come from the ~~Krispy~~ Chester's Chicken places attached to Chevrons. They put the grocery store and fast food options to shame.

[-] nomous@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

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!

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

That's what I was thinking of! Chester's, not Krispy 🤦‍♂️

[-] Zorsith@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 years ago

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

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I had it confused with Chester's Chicken. Someone else mentioned it and I realized that's what I was thinking of. Krispy Krunchy is indeed the Shell one.

[-] VeganCheesecake@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 years ago

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.
[-] awwwyissss@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago

If you're not willing to travel to another continent to get your food are you a Real Vegan?

[-] boatsnhos931@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

We don't take too kindly to vegans round Arby's

[-] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago

Something we agree on.

Arby's is great! I need some beef and cheddar all up in here.

[-] boatsnhos931@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

United we stand

[-] brygphilomena@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

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

[-] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago

No, it's not top notch. Is anyone else?

Does McDonald's or burger king make the best burgers? No! Not even close.

You buy that shit because it's there, not because it's good. It's just there and not something you hate. Good enough for Tuesday night I guess.

[-] Socsa@sh.itjust.works 0 points 2 years ago

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.
