Arby's

[W4RLR]

Arby's has started a new ad campaign that states Arby's is "Good Mood Food".

That begs the question "Where does one eat when they are pissed off?":irked:

[W2NAP]

umm id say they dont eat if they are pissed off.

[NA4BH]

That's easy, if they're mad they chew somebody's ass out. :whistle:

[N9FE]

There are so many fast food joints going down the crapper here its amazing. One week there open, Next week plywood on da windows. Ma&Pop joints even worse.

[kd8dey]

I would have to be in a good mood to pay Arby's prices. I only eat there rarely (even when they are running a special).

Nope. Pope YES.

Best onion rings in the World.

[W3WN]

Don't have a Popeyes locally.

I hear that they aren't too bad. I'd love to find out for myself one day.

[X-Rated]

I didn't even know that they had onion rings. I know their rice and beans are so good. But for around here, we have Pope yes and KFC. We choose Pope yes every time. No comparison.

[W3WN]

When I still lived up in State College, there was a new restaurant opened across the street from the PSU campus (this is circa 1970 ). I can not to this day remember the name of it, but it may have been a Popeyes... one thing I remember is that they cooked their fries & Onion Rings in peanut oil. I don't know if it was because of the oil or what seasoning they used, but I have never tasted better O-rings in a fast food place.

Place also had an oustanding salad bar, one of the first I'd ever seen.

They didn't last, though. Last I recall, Burger King had taken over the building, which was a step up from the Mickey D's down the street, but still...

I'm afraid to go to any driveup window if I'm already pissed . The temptation to reach out and drag someone through the window , to explain why SIXTEEN FRICKIN' NICKELS is not appropriate change , would just be too great . Arby's food is good , priced too high .

[W7XF]

Arby's: Overdone, way to fscking salty, probably ground and formed "roast beef".
And my stomach totally disagrees with their curly fries. Give me Hardee's beer-battered onion rings ANYDAY!

[KØWVM]

Cat people...

Dog people...

We all look the same way nude!

(Karaoke mode off)

Anyways... Like their shakes, curly fries and hot ham and swiss.

Trust me on this one: that is incorrect.

LOL! It's funny just to sing the silly song. One of those tunes that drives people nuts. Not sure where they came up with that one and who in their right mind thought it was perfect for the commercial. Scary thought huh?

[KG4CGC]

Speaking of curly fries ...
Why the hell do so many places continue to attempt to further fuck up the french fry?
Don't give me none of that preseasoned, over salted, extra fatted crap. Just cut up the taters and drop them in the fryer!
Got dang people, how the (v$% hard is that? Just plain fried taterins. I can fsck them up myself after they're cooked if need be.

I absolutely can not eat any of that crap these days.

[kc7jty]

Arby's food is good
ouch

[NA4BH]

Remember back in the old days when McDonalds cut (on site) and cooked their fries as needed? They had a wall of sliced fries hanging, ready to cook. None of the frozen crap they sell today.

Oh man! I think I was 8 years old when we got a tour of the Micky Dees kitchen.
They put the potatoes in a cylindrical device that peeled all but 10% of the peel off. They said they tasted better that way. Then they put each potato into one of those old school slicers, mounted on the wall with a 4" wide wooden handle and pull down. The sliced fries would drop into a tub, one tater at a time.

damn...I never even noticed it.

We had Gino's in SE PA. The spuds went through a hand drawn ram then were par fried before waiting to be fried again before serving.

White Castle and Pizza Hut were both started in Wichita Kansas. Today, there are no White Castles in Kansas. Kinda like ocean life. It is all pretty much gone now.

[W7XF]

In N Out still uses the hand-operated fry slicer. Put the tater in, pull the handle, dump the bucket in the fryer. Can't get any fresher than that. Never had a greasy fry out of In N Out.

Or when your food comes up to something like $4.23 and you hand them a $5 bill and a quarter then they look at you like you're and moron and say something like, "Sir, you gave me too much money" and then they give you your quarter back along with the 77¢ in change.

Wendy's used to be one of my favorite burger joynts until they started using that friggin sea salt on their fries! I love those Frosties, but a Jamocha shake from Arby's will do just fine thank you very much!

[NA4BH]

The strawberry/chocolate shake they (Arbys) had a few months back were great.

I remember the old Arby's and the Twirling Cone of Meat. Was much better then.

Still go there once in a while. Smallest beef sandwich combo, with plenty of Horsey sauce. Definitely the potato cakes. They used to do a $5 for five items deal, one small sandwich, small shake, and 6 potato cakes. Yummm.

I don't think I've ever had an Arby's Potato Cake. I've had those tater things McDonald's used to sell at breakfest. Greasier than all get out!Very similar. I don't think the potatoes are shredded quite the same way. The Arby's version is very close to some commercial versions of latkes I've had. Of course, they tend to be quite greasy, but that's always going to be a side effect of fast food deep fat frying.

I miss the Arby's Super. It's no longer on the menu at the local stores. Oh, you can still get it, if you know how to order just right & they're paying attention, but you pay through the nose for it. They had a $1 "value" sandwich last year that was basically a small version of the Super (but you had to ask for it sans Mayo, and put on the "Arby's" sauce yourself. Downtown store refused to do it. Damned if I know why), but when that disappeared, it cost almost double to order it.

I don't go there much anymore. Between the higher prices, the menu shifts (and I really hate it when the sandwich you bought yesterday is now a "we don't carry that" today), and general order foul-ups, I'm done with the downtown store.

You know what else I really miss? The old Roy Rodgers roast beef sandwiches. I don't know if the chain is still around, it disappeared from around here about the time that Hardees took them over, IIRC.

Very few but still around. There's one not too far from Kings Island that I stopped in last year.

I DID have a great time at an Arby's on the PA Turnpike last year. I ordered a trigger-burger but forgot to order the drink. When I woke up and ordered the drink, the guy just gave it to me.

Hardees is a tie with Whataburger.

Two months ago it was cheaper to get the extra large drink at McDonalds than a small drink. $1.29 for the small, a buck for the extra large.

The Hooters in Spartanburg was shutdown today by DHEC. Maybe it will reopen as a Shoney's. Did the breakfest buffet there quite a few times.

Even store bought gefilte fish can be made somewhat palatable with enough RED "chrane". (That's horseradish for all you goyim out there!)

I used to stop at their in-house restaurant after taking the FCC exams, to either celebrate or commiserate.

You can find some frozen stuff in the local supermarkets... they're not bad, for factory produced frozen shmutz.

My mom hasn't made them in years. At 82, she's not much up for the work these days. I do miss them.
