Arby's Cheese Cake Poppers

Most here disagree, but I love some Arby's so I would think they would be good. Beef and Cheddar Combo with a large order of potato cakes is tough to beat IMO

Dunno, I went to Arby's the other day because of the irrepressible siren song of the recently returned Arby-Q and saw a picture for these in the door. It just seems like one of those things that's way better in theory than in practice, like Libertarianism.

they cook 'em in the same grease as the fries, so they taste like these big potato globs of crap. They even forgot my sauce (drive-thru) so I called and told them how much they sucked. Ship the coupon for free Arby's meal.

These things look terrible, but this thread did make me visit the Arbys website, I haven't had Arbys in almost at least 15 years. I used to love there stuff, but I thought they all closed down in the NY area. Just found out there is one in the Manhattan Mall and will check out in the next week or so, trip report to follow.

Sounds like a good idea with poor execution.

I don't want to derail your thread, but how about the fried macaroni and cheese bites from Sonic? I think they look utterly disgusting, but my roommate and a friend maintain their awesomeness.

Slight hijack-

Has anyone tried the Burger King cheesy tots?

FWIW I have heard very good things about both the macaroni cheese bites from Sonic and the BK cheesy tots. I have managed to avoid them, however. Barely.

I'm gonna have to go against the cheese cake naysayers on this one. I went against Gobbomoms advice and got them anyway. I was pleasantly surprised. I think this location must have new oil or at least hadn't cooked many fries today because they were quite good and the raspberry sauce is a nice complement. All in all, with my french dip sub I would rate the meal a 4.5 out of 5.
