Went way out of my way to stop at an Arbys yesterday to try the spicy brisket and chicken sandwiches and they didn't even have them anymore. The articles say through Feb. 6th. I got Pizza Huts spicy pizza on Monday. It was actually pretty good and unlike most ff spicy offerings it actually had some kick to it.

Ok I've been whatever on 5guys (good burger, lots of fries, pricey) but in comparison with Habit burger?

Habit $12 double char combo

Vs

5G cheeseburger and little fries 10.29 + 4.19 $14.50 (No drink)

Ok last time I went to 5g I don't recall there being a little vs reg fries. Looking at calorie count, for $1 more reg you get 90% more fries

Since I have an air fryer excess fries aka bag fries are never wasted.

However the nearest 5g is 35 mins away in Seattle traffic, vs 10 mins for Habit.

May have to experiment with Habit burger plus MCD fries.

Eagerly awaiting your TR! I hate to say it, but I gotta lay off the FF for awhile. Taco pass had me wildin'. Luckily, I can still live through this thread.

Kinda lame that this "experience" is basically two tacos. But whatevs, only thing that matters is the build-your-own box.

Anyone else miss the Arby-Q? I always enjoyed it when they had them.

Now that I'm in the Columbus, OH area, I am debating trying Skyline Chili. I hear you either love it or hate it. ��*♂️

Had forgotten about the Arby-Q. I loved them.

I'm in no man's land on Skyline. The hint of cinnamon kind of throws me off, but I like it as a change of pace chili. Give it a try.

Yeah, i plan on at least trying the chili once. I'm usually open to trying anything. It's just surprising how polarizing the opinions seem to be. Everyone I've talked to about it either loves it or hates it. There's no in between here.

Because their supply costs are so much more due to inflation and supply chain problems restaurants have the choice of either raising prices or cutting the lower priced items, special offers, and menu deals.

Been doing this awful Taco Bell move where I buy a couple beefy burritos and have them at the ready in the fridge. Did it last night coming home from office late, and also had a free 5-layer in my app, so ate the 5-layer last night and will probably have the other two today.

It was 90% of yesterday's cals and I was well under my 1700ish, but yah not the most healthy move. On the bright side I got ~50 fire sauces with the order, so my home stash doth overflow.

My TB taco pass expired today. It stopped right before I left to grab my last taco. Oh well, that was fun.

I'm guessing I got ~15 tacos.

RIP Taco Pass

We hardly knew thee

15 tacos is pretty salad. Not showing off. Not lagging behind. Right in the middle.

You can still purchase a Taco Pass. It's at least sticking around through this next experience.

My final tally was 16 tacos. Pretty unreal value, considering I paid $5 for mine (kudos to Mark!).

I won't be getting it again soon, but would definitely recommend it to anyone at $10.
