What school?
No kidding. I wonder if that's where Cane's got their idea from.
Guess it’s good it wasn’t McDonald’s. We’d have to hear about the merger of a Big Mac and a Hot ‘n Juicy.
“All your Wendy’s are belong to us”
I think most of the 99 cent menus are going to disappear soon....there was an article in the Wall Street Journal about how much the industry is losing with them.
George Mason University.
Good but pricey.
I was figuring HS crew. What year?
That is great news about Roy Rogers Roast Beef still available in Maryland, I confess to not having been back to that socialist paradise in more than 10 years, having grown up in Wheaton/Silver Spring.
Another great burger franchise that has sadly gone off into the shadows of history is noneother than Little Tavern, i.e. ‘Buy ‘em by the bag!’
Rest in Peace Harry Duncan! (founder, Little Tavern)
We’re on the same page FRiend! Of all the various sauces and condiments, I think Arby’s Sauce is probably the best of them all!
I’m with ya FRiend, and a big Euro-cross-bar on the Kentucky Fried Rat! LOL
Wendy’s hamburgers are a lot better than McDonald’s.
I’m hearing that Roy Rogers may NOT be gone (at least in the Washington Metro area?), and that is good news.
Is O’Brien’s Real Pit Barbeque still in business around there?
They used to have the most fabulous food when I was there back in the 80’s...
Hook a dynamo up to O'l Dave's grave, free energy for everyone.
Years ago associates and myself were stuck in the office at lunchtime, and somebody went to get us all something to eat. Arby’s is what they brought back to us. Starving I ate it. Never been to an Arby’s since.
I noticed the one near us is gone now, but that location had been a Burger King before it was Arby’s, and it also closed. Probably just a lousey location.
If we eat out at all we only go to the local chain called “Farmer Boys”. It’s great. Otherwise we eat at the best place in town known to us as the Rockin’ QS Ranch, it’s absolutely the best.
Graduated 1998.
True. That's why I'm glad that I don't live too close to one, and only get the chance to go there every six weeks or so. Seven bucks is a lot to pay for a fast food combo, but everything is perfect -- chicken, fries, Texas Toast, that amazing sauce. If one was open right now, I'd go drive the 20 minutes to Metairie to get some.
Was that the A-Hole that changed the recipe on the Old Timer with Cheese? I stopped going there when they did that. Wheat bun and Cheddar.. Just wasn't the same.
I'm afraid you're right. Wendy's is the only fast burger joint with a burger that still tastes somewhat like a real hamburger, and some of th chicken sandwiches are good as well.
Arby's roast beef sandwich was pretty good 25 years or so ago when it still used actual roast beef, and the mocha shakes were very good. But then later on they started serving the slimy, gooey, gelatinous, foul smelling slop they now call roast beef and it's downright awful. I stopped by an Arby's a couple of years ago when the neighbors who were with me at the time decided they wanted something from there. The slop they put on my bun looked and smelled much more like canned dog food than roast beef. Hungry as I was, it stunk so bad I just couldn't eat it. I pretended to eat the crap so as to not insult the neighbor's who paid for everything and seemed to like the stuff, but I wrapped up most of it and sneaked it back into the bag which ended up in my garbage can at home. Yuk, never again even if the neighbors pay for it.
