Comment on I ate: Arby's Steak Nuggets

Re: Regular vs. Curly fries.
Clearly, this debate sparks from a deep cultural ignorance of what it truly means to eat at an Arby’s.
Although this practice was interrupted for a while by an episode of sheer corporate madness, the only proper potato-based side dish is potato cakes that have been set upon the wrapper of a large beef and cheddar to catch the excess cheese and sauce that falls from the sandwich.
Only once they have been drizzled in a combo of surplus liquid cheddar, horsey, and Arby’s sauce can you truly appreciate what potatoes were meant to be.
Much like eating an Ortolan, it’s best to cover your head with a handkerchief while indulging, so as to hide the shame of such a decadent meal from God.

I did peep the potato cakes on the menu, and almost chose them as my side, but the aforementioned gnawing hunger required me to select a known quantity side order.

Imagine if angels performed a miracle that allowed a tater tot and a McDonald’s hashbrown to produce a child, after which someone found the least expensive way to replicate that product by mundane and industrial means.
Hearty, weighty, and substantial, yet still crispy on the outside while soft on the inside.
I like to use the sauce packets to draw little designs on them, elevating an already divine side dish into the perfect amuse-bouche.

The hash browns that they sell at Trader Joe’s are like that, arguably even better.

The potato cakes are so damn good. Like a thick hashbrown from McDonald’s or Jack In The Box.

Try the ones from Trader Joe’s. Same genre.
