Arby's Potato Cakes

Way back in college I got tired of opening the little packets. In those days they had big bottles on the dine-in tables and 1 somehow appeared in our apartment

Pretty simple, they streamlined their menu to compensate for the increased wages and lack of employees. McDonalds did it last year when they cut the 24hr breakfast. It won't be long till all we get is Brawndo for the electrolites.

The potato cakes were 2 to 3 times as thick as the hockey pucks served at McDonalds. Tasted more like tots

Lots of places still offer tater tots!

Wife and I found out about this a day before they pulled them. The manager told us Arby's doesn't want to pay the inflated prices for ham and potato cakes, so they're pulling them. Wife bought the last (all three) potato cakes since they were her favorite part too.

True and when I have to eat at a Sonic I order them. Problem is the cakes and plain roast beef were my bad stomach food. Even my doc said they were good for something like a stomach virus. The plain roast beef is gentle on your stomach while the potato cakes and bun soaked up acids, etc. I guess we could hit two drive thru but when that sick one is pushing it. I remember that virus that went around a few years back we had to get the daughter to make food and TP runs for us. Man that was a rough one.

McDonalds hash browns are a by product from making french fries
no cost for the product, just production costs

Pretty much everything at McDonalds is a by product.
