How is it that a fast food chain such as Arby’s run out of curly fries? Is the gas crunch causing shortages with shipments from Idaho?  In Asheville NC, they told us that “the gas doesn’t flow uphill, and therefore has to be trucked in.”  I guess that potatoes don’t roll uphill? It’s just a tragedy that a fast food restaurant could run out of french fries!

Although the drive thru lady was really nice about it, I was really looking forward to some Arby’s curly fries. In fact, I wanted curly fries so freaking bad that I drove 3 miles beyond Burger King, McD’s and Taco Bell JUST to get Arby’s curly fried goodness. But noooooooo, I had to settle with Mozzarella Sticks and Jalapeno Bites dipped in that berry blaster sauce or whatever the hell it’s called. They aren’t so bad, but they are no curly fry caliper material.

While normally I would be upset about something like this for weeks on end, I actually take a bit of comfort knowing that this particular Arbys establishment has been nothing short of impeccable. Service is generally incredibly fast, and food orders always 100% accurate. As testimony to how good this place is, I once asked for a “shitload of Horsey Sauce” and the drive thru chick actually went and filled up an entire BAG full of Horsey! Hell yeah!

So, I think we’ll let Arby’s off the hook with this one. Next time it happens though, all hell shall break loose. :)
