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.
