Arby's Flaunts Meaty Goodness With 'Vegetarian Support Hotline

Arby’s poking a tiny bit of fun at a small group of overreacting vegetarians is what coexistence looks like. We can handle “We Have the Meats,” America.

Newbie to FR and my first post so hope I'm doing this right. America has problems way more serious than vegan outrage over bacon, no offense to vegans...probably healthier than I am anyway, 'cause I'm going for the bacon. Whether you fall on the side of bacon,or not, or somewhere in between, Arby's response is refreshing. Critiques of post welcomed and appreciated so I can do better next time. (I didn't read the "caution do not" section first; livin' on the edge)

Love Arby’s not all the time but when I want it I buy a bunch gets lots of RB sauce and freeze them

[Dr. Ursus]

Arby’s roast beef and market fresh sandwiches are great.

I have to use the drive in because I will not sit in a place that serves Pepsi.

Goin’ there today.

Love their response.

If we do more of this, we can turn back the wall O’shi...er...excrement coming from progressives. (Of course, that’s the ONLY thing coming from that collection of vermin.)

Refresh my memory. Why are we boycotting Pepsi again?

back in canadastan, I grew up with 2 burgers other than McD’s: Arby’s and Harvey’s. RB Cheddar melts were my burgers back in high school. RB ain’t RB without the cheese.

I didn’t realize that the stuff Arby’s sells is meat. You learn something new every day.

Welcome!
Been here since ‘94 and you’ve already beat me at the posting game...
Look forward to reading you in future.

They used to be great. In the 2000s their meat lost a lot of flavor. I don’t know how they managed that but they did.

Try their reuben sandwich.
It’s every bit as good as the $11 one at our local deli.

[Buckeye McFrog]

Very interesting, particularly given that I’ve read Arbys gives a substantial amount of money to Democrats.

[Marko413]

Wow, there’s a challenge! How often when you do order out do you have to walk out of the restaurant when you find out they serve Pepsi products? I’d suspect you are cutting yourself out of at least 60% of all restaurants in the US.

For some strange reason, this new computer won't display photo properties, so I can no longer post pics.....but suggest do an image search for "Culver City Meat truck" for a great logo.

Looks like obamas logo

“Try their reuben sandwich.”

I agree. It is good.
