Keep fighting the good fight, Thump. Arby's is good.

But too damn expensive.

I like the buttery, greasy 5 for $5 Rax sandwiches, but now I'm on the other side of town and rarely have reason to go over towards the Rax. Eat Arby's once a week though.

And yes, roast beef slabs look like hell when they're shipped, but it's been boiled & brined to precook, cure and protect the meat from bacteria.

Unless you've seen any cows around back of your local Wendys, McDonalds, Burger King, or whatever, I'd just leave that discussion alone. :wink2:

Big fan of their 5 for $5.95 deal.

Most underrated thing about Arby's is their very fizzy pop. It kicks ass!

Thump,

You do know that Arby's "beef" is shipped as a gelatinous liquid and only becomes solid after it's put in a convection oven?

Never witnessed it myself, so it could be urban legend, but I have heard it for a long time.

Just what I have heard from people who have worked there. Paste was the wrong word to use there, but they say it's like a white mound of clay. I looked it up and found this out from Snopes.com:



Urban Legends Reference Pages: Arby's Liquid Meat


and then..

Thump, I worked in an Arby's for roughly 3 months while in high school. The hunk of meat comes out looking like a solid chunk of puke -- its about 20 pounds and its a light gray/white.

You then put it in the "oven" for a few hours and it turns brown, smells better and tastes yummy.

I eventually had to quit because of the smell of the raw meat as it was cooking. it was the most discusting thing.

Even though knowing what it lookes like raw and the smell, i still eat there on occasion but not very often.

also...

Big Papa;928348; said:
Yeah, but they also mentioned how the use some kind of liquid in the packaging to keep the meat "juicy". I am sure that's what makes the white-ish look.

and again...

Ginn4Heisman;928359; said:
that could be, but it was disgusting, like i said, it smelled horrible.

Also it was packaged up like a deli meat but it was surrounded with liquid. Probably from boiling and the liquid is there to keep it juicy, but again, it was gross.

Whoops, hit enter too soon. the point of this was to say, yes, I think thump is aware by now. :smile:
