God Bless Arby's

Can I get an amen?



ATLANTA, July 7, 2015 /PRNewswire/ — Dear Vegetarians;

We respect you. We respect your life decisions. With that in mind, we want it to be abundantly clear that this letter is not meant to sway or convert you. We’re sharing this to offer our support.

Nearly a year ago, we embarked on a journey to tell America about our meats. By now, you’ve likely heard the Arby’s tagline: We Have The Meats®. It’s tough to hear, but it is what it is. We have many meats. And we have quality meats.

It is understandable that you disapprove of our meat-bravado. Your voices have been heard. Letters, emails, voicemails, Tweets and Facebook comments – we hear you. We love our meats, but realize they’re not for everyone.

Then on Sunday, June 28, we launched a meat innovation that has likely tempted you: Brown Sugar Bacon. It’s our pepper bacon, glazed in-restaurant with brown sugar and then cooked to perfection. It may be hard to resist…even for you. Hardcore vegetarians likely won’t budge, but for those of you who are on the fringe or new to the game, avoidance can’t be easy.

We, at Arby’s, have created this temptation. So, we’d like to help.

We’re giving you a number to call: 1-855-MEAT-HLP. This is a Vegetarian Support Hotline. When your nose betrays you and alerts the rest of your senses to find and devour this sweet meat, please call 1-855-MEAT-HLP. You will receive the support you need to resist this gateway meat and get tips on how to avoid temptation. Delicious. Sizzling. Temptation.

Be strong. We’re here for you.

Sincerely,
Arby’s
Pappy

Preach on brother!!!!

We ate at the local Arbys this weekend.  They had this huge poster for their new BLT.  It is the sandwich in the center of this photo.  Mmmmmm bacon..... (anybody see any L or T in that thing?).

I remember Arby's when they used real beef in their sandwiches. They went to some kind of composite and I went the other way.

They had this huge poster for their new BLT.
If anyone has one, I'd like to see a photo of the actual sandwich instead of the Madison Avenue version.

I do enjoy Arby's market fresh sandwiches I have to admit. And now they have super pig bacon :P

Amen!

Very clever marketing campaign. I also like their Market Fresh sandwiches.

I just saw a the facility that smokes Arby's briskets on TV.
I believe the show is called food factory. They smoke the briskets at 167 degrees then freeze and ship out to Arby's.

Amen!  Somehow, sliced tofu smoked with some brown sugar on it just doesn't compare.  As Emeril once said, "Its a pig fat thing".
