As you've probably heard, the fast-food chain Arby's wanted to advertise the fact that it offers more than just roast beef. So it created an ad that showed a giant pile of all its meats turkey, ham, steak, corned beef, brisket, bacon, chicken tenders along with Swiss cheese and cheddar cheese.

According to an Arby's vice president, "People started coming in and asking, 'Can I have that?' " Surprisingly, the answer was not "get out, you're scaring the other customers." So now you can order one, though it doesn't appear on the menu and Arby's can maintain plausible deniability. It's $10, and it's called The Meat Mountain.

[Lots of opinions]

The verdict: Against all odds, it's delicious. And this may surprise you, but it's not subtle. It's salt and fat, with a surprising crunch from the fried chicken and bacon hiding within. Chefs spend a lot of time trying to find the right ingredients. What we know now is all you need to do is use all the ingredients.

I will try it this weekend and report back.

I worked at an Arby's for three months in high school and haven't eaten there since. I know that snopes states it's an urban legend that their beef is a liquid, but I distinctly remember the uncooked gelatinous ooze that firmed up when cooked. Their chicken, turkey and bacon were solid though. Damn, now I want a CBS.

 
1275 calories, 67 grams of fat, 3536 mg of sodium.

While 1,275 calories is nothing to sneeze at, the bigger concern for some Arby’s customers may be the sodium count. At 3,536mg, that’s significantly more than the recommended daily maximums.
At some point, they're going to tell you that salt is good for you for some reason. You know that, right?

I'd do one, w/o the tenders, the turkey is enough poultry.
I'd lose the turkey, if I felt compelled to only go with a single poultry. Crappy fried chicken>>>>>>>>>crappy mechanically separated turkey inspired deli loaf.
Probably, but I'd factor in that it would be easier to eat with the turkey than the tenders.
Yes, the bread will gum up the works of that sandwich unless it's piping-hot fresh. Which I doubt.

My Arby's favorite is their Roast Chicken Club Sandwich.

Arby's Roast Beef comes in Liquid/Paste Form! Video proof!

though from this thread I learned this nugget of info

Arby's sauce FTW. And they're selling it in bottles now, $1 a piece. I drove through yesterday and asked for a lot of Arby's sauce and that's when she told me about the bottles. I bought two.
I'm gonna get a bottle of each later.
 
Is the shark play to buy a bottle of arbys sauce and squirt the deliciousness into your mouth before you take a bite of the mountain or after?

Kinda just looked like raw hamburger.

 
I'll take the meat mountain sandwich, curly fries.. and a diet coke.
So true :lol:
LOL, when I was in High School, I worked at the local movie theater. I can't tell you how many "Large popcorn with extra butter, nachos with extra cheese and large diet soda" orders I took. Hell, sometimes they would ask for the nacho cheese on the popcorn. :doh:
I always get a diet coke. More calories dedicated to the good stuff.

Yup, and they definitely took advantage of that.

I get the :lmao: But it makes sense to me. If my only option is a soft drink or still water I order a diet. Regular soft drinks are just too damned sweet. :yucky:

 
Jon Stewart did a lot of Arby jokes too.

"To see [your show] night after night, serving the same ####, my god, you're the Arby's of news. How can I not be obsessed with the Arby's of news?"
