What the ?!?! are you talking about? That's like saying all of McDonalds burgers suck because they have "special sauce." False statement.

Only one of their salads have grapes and stuff in it. The "Martha's Vineyard" or something. I've been too frightened to even try that salad.

Go for the chicken club salad. Chicken, bacon, egg, cheese, Ranch dressing.... No fruits or nuts. ;) There's a Santa Fe that has beans in it, but I don't know about beans in a salad.

And the wraps don't suck IMO... well, the turkey ranch one isn't that great, but I don't think that's Arby's fault. I just can't eat turkey as a cold cut unless it has a BUNCH of mayo on it.

Arbys does, as a matter of fact, kick fast food azz. I can't get enough of that Arby's sauce either. Mmmm I don't think anyone has even mentioned that yet.

but arby's is awesome nonetheless

i love arby's i worked at quizno's i hate their food to expensive for what you get specially with that new rediculous 6" roll meal deal sandwich thing we where supposed to push to the customer when i finally quit it was horrible, btw if you eat there i would suggest never getting wheat bread (even though it is better for you) b/c its the first bread out of all the bread they sell that gets moldy and they try to keep it for as long as possible until the molds really noticeable.

steak n shake >>>> arby's! D=
plus to those of you complaining about the price for hte big food chains that are franchised to the people that want to run them they set the price the owners so each franchise can have a seperate price b/c the owner of that store sets what they are going to sell an item for and the actual store/join/headquarter place just pulls their flat fee from each item on the menu to make their money, an example would be that at quizno's the real meal deal sandwiches where 2.99 each but only $.60 to make and everything else was profit for the business and the franchiser

Can you say disgruntled employee? all your "inside information" is completely inaccurate and slanderous

Oh.. DUH!!!! I'm sorry. I was thinking you were talking about a SALAD. Because they do have a fru fru salad with chicken called the "Martha's Vineyard."

Yeah... I haven't had the Chicken Salad sandwich. Scared of that too. Due to the raisins and apples and stuff. My wife had one and said it was good.

yeah, I'd rather go spend $6.50 @ Panera Bread or a local deli or bagel shop and eat REALLY good food instead of spending $6.50 on stuff that is still ultimately fast food

even if it were 6 bucks a sandwich that would be $30... no way 5 drinks cost 13.00... you sure it was just sandwiches?

When we've gone, it's usually about $20-$25 for full meals for me, my wife, and our 3 kids.

Now Arby's is great, but if they went 24/7, oh goodness I would go there instead of Taco Bell or Jack in the Box.

Wow, my mouth sure is watering right now.... lunch at arby's sounds good today.

Some around here are 24/7

Arby's rocks. I never knew they were any good till I tried a roast beef sandwich on a whim this past summer. Its probably the best roast beef I've ever had.

Anyway, I've never tried anything else just out of fear of it not living up to the roast beef. Perhaps its time to diversify my tastes.

I love Arby's but it is way too expensive for me. If they had a dollar menu (or even 1.50 menu), that would pwn.

Umm... Yeah. Panera Bread is a bad example. I actually like them fine, but not as much as Arby's and you want to talk about expensive?
