:The picture of the Arbys roast beef on the right is not what most look like... they are much more well prepared and look so much more appetizing!

message: On the Wiki page it says the biggest Arbys in the world was built in Colonial Heights and West Richmond Va in 1993.  But I found an article(see below) that says the largest Arbys in the world was built in Tulsa, OK in 1995.  Could someone please clarify which is the largest.  Thanks, Joe

thread_title: Largest Restaurant?

message: I worked as a manger and general manager in North Carolina for an Arby's franchise in the late 60s. Back then we used real inside top rounds instead of the formed beef they use. I also went to "Arby's school" in Ohio and met the Raffel Brothers. I remember when we started selling potato cakes and turnovers, that was a big deal. Before that there were only a small selection of sandwiches. We made our Jamocha syrup from scratch back then too. It sure has changed.

thread_title:  Milkshake size 

message: The article states, "Expansion to other states began in 1968, beginning in...Detroit". There was an Arby's in East Lansing Michigan in 1968. I lived a block away from it. We moved to Arizona in June 1968. I cannot be certain that the East Lansing Arby's was more than 6 months old, but I do remember eating there a lot. I find it unlikely that they could begin outstate franchising in 1968 and get the special purpose build building up and open in time for me to eat there that much and still leave town in June.
The building is still there, but now contains the flagship Biggby Coffee shop.

message: My name is Jason Rollins and I work within the communications and public relations department at Arby’s. I would like to update the products section of the article with the following information about the Arby’s Smokehouse Brisket sandwich. “In October 2013, Arby’s introduced its most successful limited time offer, the Smokehouse Brisket sandwich, consisting of thinly sliced, smoked beef brisket, smoked Gouda cheese, barbecue sauce and crispy onions.” I look forward to hearing your thoughts.

replies: text: That kind of description for what a brisket is wouldn't be necessary, but do you have a reliable source that verifies that it was the "most successful"? - Aoidh (talk) 05:05, 12 March 2014 (UTC)

text: Arby's Smokehouse Brisket sandwich was first introduced and offered in restaurants during the month of October 2013. During that period, Arby's sold an average of 64 Smokehouse Brisket sandwiches, per store, per day, making it the most successful new product in the Brand's 50-year history.

message: I propose that Market Fresh Sandwiches be merged into Arby's. I think that the content in the Market Fresh Sandwiches article fits naturally into the Arby's article. Market Fresh Sandwiches are more easily explained and understood in the context of the Arby's article and the Arby's article is of a reasonable size that the merging of Market Fresh Sandwiches will not cause any problems as far as article size or undue weight is concerned.

message: The "Advertising" section on this article is very small, only mentioning the most recent slogan and current commercial narrator. However, there's so much more to that.
They had many other slogans before "We have the meats", such as "What are you eating today?" and "It's good mood food". The full list of slogans can be found here.
They also had a mascot which was an oven mitt, which was voiced by Tom Arnold.
They have partnered with ELEAGUE at some point in the 2010s, which created a series of commercials involving their food being blown up. Despite it's presence in meme culture, there's little to no information online about the partnership other than the commercials posted. AFluffyMuffin (talk) 21:33, 7 April 2023 (UTC)
