It's awesome that during the time where obnoxiously loud TikTok videos are the trend, we have ReviewBrah calmly sitting down and hammering out quality lengthy reviews in a single take. Don't change.
ReviewBruh never fuckin' misses, and if anyone disagrees then come fight me. If there's anyone's honor I'm standing up for, it is this man right here. It's definitely all on Arby's.
Meanwhile, across town, somone is wondering why their Buffalo chicken sandwich has BBQ sauce and no lettuce. I'm betting someone mixed up the meats on two sandwiches.
Incredible that he literally has a notepad with the exact ingredients it's supposed to have listed so that he can make as educated and objective of a review as possible. True journalism.
A normal joe doesn’t apologize for Arby’s mistakes….but this is no ordinary man. Hold your head up high Reviewbrah, you did what you could to salvage the item
The last time I went to arby's we ordered 3 of some kind of "meat mountain" or some such sandwich with three kinds of barbecue on it. They told me it would be 20 minutes because "We only have one microwave" The logistics of Arby's is on another level.
Arby's has always (with no exaggeration) gotten my order wrong, in the very little times over gone I've never gotten what I ordered on the first serving. I am impressed by your ability to improvise and change what it is that you're reviewing on the spot. Great job Mr. Brah, keep up the good work 🤝🏻
This is such a specific customization that i think it was an employees lunch that got swapped with a normal order. I'm happy to hear your rated review for the concoction, in any case. You've saved someone new from thinking it would be a good combination to order.
I agree totally, especially when he refers to this debacle as a "logistical shortfall". In layman's terms, some teenager working there had no clue how to make this new sandwich so just tossed a bunch of random ingredients together. 😃
Going by my 8 years of fast wood work experience. If I had to guess, you got some crew member's lunch lol. Probably wrapped it, slid it into the warmer and went to do something else and a confused employee saw the box and handed out as what you ordered.
I was always confused as to why people hated Arby's so much, but didn't realise how spoiled I was until the one near me closed - It was loaded with seasoned workers and management that actually cared. The other Arby's are like 20+ minutes away and the quality is on par with other fast food places - I think it's still okay, but if you order anything other than beef/beef & cheddar, quality is a roll of the die.
I think I'm lucky to have one of those good Arby's with employees who care. I also didn't get the hate, but now that I think about it, the service and food at my local Arby's is consistently good - even though they're swamped with customers half the time (not a huge variety of fast food restaurants out here - a small city that's just big enough to have lots of people, but not big enough to have the variety of chains to match). Honestly you've made me appreciate them more now. Maybe I'll thank them next time I'm there.
Same. I've had shockingly good luck with the two in my area, but I rarely go to Arby's. I fucking love their milkshakes though, especially the jamocha. The chocolate is good, too. I plan to try the vanilla someday, but it was hard enough for me to say no to the jamocha to finally try the chocolate.
Yep. The price margin between fast food and fast casual has gotten smaller too. It used to be like $5 (at most) for taco bell and $9 for Chipotle, but now its closer to $8 for taco bell and $11 for chipotle. And at least if you order in store at chipotle they can't get the order wrong since they make it right in front of you. Nothing worse than paying $8 for taco bell, waiting 20 minutes in the drive through, only for the order to be wrong and you have to wait another 20 min for them to fix it, if you choose to look at the order before leaving.
@@user82938 This. I hate my job too but I don't take it out on customers or coworkers by not caring and making their lives harder. But if I can find a way to annoy corporate and HR without getting fired I will.
This is what I love about this guy. He could go to these restaurants & have them prepare a proper example of the sandwich but he won't do that. He wants to get what the average customer gets. Therefore, these companies have ONE SHOT to get their products right for a review. He doesn't need to apologize. This represents what a customer will potentially receive.
@@johnstamos5948 great comment to this comment i have to say, people who drop tidbits about themselves in the comment section come off like attention seekers and i was going to leave a comment about all that but then i read your comment and was like, YES! thats the best way to say what im trying to! thank you john stamos! god bless!
Getting the wrong order seems to be more frequent for me after the pandemic. Sometimes I will ask them to fix it but mostly I consider it an adventure and just try what they decided to give me.
🤣🤣🤣 great attitude to have, but I have no idea where everyone is getting their food because I've never seen a mistake happen. I've seen theft, people claiming food they didn't pay for.
@@deadinside8781 I'm lucky - I live in a tiny town where everyone knows everyone. The few "fast food" places we have are two pizza joints, the hot tray at the local grocery store, the semi-premade stuff at the gas station, and a "Mexican" place. I put that in quotes because it's something of a mishmash of Tex-Mex, Ameri-Mex, Mexican, and other South/Central American cuisine. We had a burger joint, but they closed for personal reasons. It's hard to screw up pizza, and the Latino food is delicious no matter how it's thrown together.
@@calanon534 "the Latino food is delicious no matter how it's thrown together" That's is facts, but mostly in the states. Abroad so called "mexican" restaurants are abhorrent, especially in Australia. They somehow managed to screw up Mexican food over there.. at least from my personal experince
Last time I was at Arby’s it was awful. Had one of their signature roast beast sandwiches and it was a soggy, mess and the only thing I tasted was the ridiculous amount of sodium in the “meat” which had that weird non meat color. I remember Arby’s years ago and it was good usually. But even their horsy sauce now tasted bland and is now just mostly cheep tasteless mayo. Overall I think spent about $8 on that mess…..and took them like 20 minutes because they had to deep fry the curly fries that were also disappointing.
Some years back (15-20 years?), Piccadilly, a cafeteria-style restaurant, had bourbon chicken that was actually restaurant quality. After a while, they reverted to cheaper ingredients and it was no longer as good. Over its lifetime, Piccadilly had periods of good food and lackluster food, and our sole location here in Richmond, Va., finally closed.
I used to go to a Piccadilly Cafeteria (now closed) in Nashville Tennessee. I liked their carrot soufflé, and I thought the roast beef was pretty good. I miss the old style cafeterias like Morrison’s and Piccadilly (which I think bought out Morrison’s)
I bet I speak for most of your fans when I say you could review, do, or talk about literally anything and I'll watch it from start to finish multple times. We love ya, bro. I'm totally grateful for your reviews and podcast and the immense body of work you have contributed to the internet. Not to mention your super easy going nature. Being an ordained Dudeist Priest who recognizes the Abiding nature in others, I can say you absolutely shine from the inside out. Take it easy, Dude! And thanks for the cool mystery sandwich review!
I work at Arbys and this sandwich was all kinds of fucked up. Noticed a small mistake on your part, or maybe it was on the Arbys description itself. but it’s Sweet garlic dill pickles. not Sweet garlic, and dill pickles. Sandwich should have a toasted star top bun, bourbon bbq, 2-3 sweet garlic dill pickles on the bottom, 4oz of pork rip and a slice of cheddar cheese heated, and then crispy onion strings on top. Granted, they still only got the Rib, and the cheese correctly… sigh. sounds like one of my annoying stupid 16 year old coworkers got to one of your sandwiches.
I also work at Arby's. It literally looks like the backline person wasn't paying attention and put the rib on top of the Kings Hawaiian Sweet Heat Sandwich. That looks like the Sweet and Spicy sauce.
You can literally watch the decline of quality tasting fast food by watching this guy's videos throughout the years. Failed reviews of takeout are becoming more and more frequent.
To be fair, fast food orders coming out incorrect has always been extremely common. Always check the order to make sure you get what you ordered. Especially if you're doing a review of a particular item.
I disagree that it should be MY job to check the order. Getting what you ordered is supposed a big part of food service. It looks to me like either someone had no idea how to actually make the sandwich, or they didn't have the correct supplies and were just substituting whatever.
@@cheutho Of course the onus is on employee to get your order correct. I'll never argue against that. I'm merely saying, you can save yourself the grief of getting the wrong order by taking the precaution of assuming there's a big chance they got something wrong, and confirming first hand everything is correct. As for what happened in this Arby's review... could have been someone not knowing how to make a sandwich... could have just been handed the wrong bag. It could have been a disgruntled employee that doesn't care and sabotages sandwiches for random customers. It'll always be a mystery. But a simple 20 second inspection could have resolved the issue and saved the review.
@cavezombie83 If you have an Arby's with breakfast, they should still have them. But I agree they need to bring th back to all stores, and the pizza sliders!!!
Fast food is like a box of chocolates… that’s been left out in the hot sun, run over, rummaged thru by some stray animals, and then finally sold to you for $12.99 with a $3 up charge.
"Logistical shortfall" - words that can be used to describe this Arby's concoction - and also the kind of day I've been having today!! But you just made things a whole lot better and you most certainly don't need to apologise. Thank you, young fella 🔥
Whats even funnier about this review is that, every Arby's I've been to or worked at, the buffalo sauce is the ONLY sauce that isn't stored in a squirt bottle. It's in a tin that we'd just dunk the chicken into before slamming the meat on the sandwiches. Whoever did this to you had zero clue what was happening.
In general, I think fast food quality has drastically dropped. Granted, it wasn't the healthiest thing, but now the portions are smaller, they're more expensive, and they honestly don't even taste as good as it used to.
My friend... you could buy a Big Mac and just throw the whole thing away and not give a review and I still would not expect an apology. You bring a lot of joy to my life and many others and no one cares people who are paid to make good food cant do it. You will always make good reviews and for your consistency we always come back!
I Googled to see if they had any other sandwich on the menu to fit the ingredients on your sandwich, but didn't find any rib sandwich from them other than the one you expected to get.
I dieeed when you asked "is that Lettuce? Also, "I think they put Buffalo sauce on it" That whole sandwich is a disaster!! Also, I LOVE watching you! The polite mannerism with dry humor is the best!!
The Arby’s in my neighborhood closed down…I’m assuming due to poor sales and fails like this. The workers there always seemed liked they’d rather be anywhere else but at Arby’s.
There is a conflict in every human heart between the rational and the irrational, between good and evil. The good does not always triumph. Every man has got a breaking point. You and I have. Reviewbrah has reached his. And very obviously, he has gone insane.
The quality of the sandwhich does not in any way take away from the quality of your reviews. Thank you for keeping them honest and for highlighting the quality we are getting after frequent price increases! Aside from the fact that they butchered the sandwhich, I'm still hungry enough that i would try it out if i was actually willing to pay $8 for it, which im definitly not😂
What I liked right on the last one I watched he said on a 17 minute stream at about 2-5 minutes in he says, I won't waste your time it's good if you need to stop watching. Or something like that. This kid is a gem and a true first class act! Keep up the great work
Hey reviewbrah, i don't know if you'll read this and if you do, i don't know what effect will have on you. But it's not necessary to apologise for not getting the item when it's not even your fault. I am from Argentina and i don't even eat fast food, so, like a lot of people, we watch you not becase of the food, but because of you. We don't really know you at all, but even in this parasocial relationship, we really enjoy hearing your eloquent analysis of this kinda stuff, it's really fun and you bring a lot of personality to food made by a soulless company. Life has been grim for the whole world and me, so just getting some nice video from you once a week, it's a bright spot in my life. Hope you don't get discouraged and thanks man.
Let's get one thing perfectly clear. Your reviews are not failures. It's the failures from these fast food restaurants that are motivating people like me to make our own sandwiches at home, which more often than not are actually better than the real thing. All you are doing is looking out for our tastebuds and our bottom dollar, so keep doing your thing and we'll keep enjoying it.
Something very similar happened once to Marcel Proust. His usual order of lime blossom tea was mixed up with a chilled glass of Dr Pepper, and a whole chapter of Swann's Way was lwrecked.
@@axiomist4488 Yeah, the prices at fast food places have made my wife and I cook 9 meals out of 10 at home. Such has helped our budget for sure though so it's a good thing really.
1) Use quality/convenience of product/service to establish brand loyalty 2) Expand your reach as far as possible to become dominant market force 3) Use profits to undercut or buy out as much competition as you can (primarily local/small businesses) 4) Slowly reduce quality/convenience of product/service while raising prices, relying on brand loyalty and market dominance to retain customers We're in stage 4 for a lot of physical and digital industries right now. The stock market demands infinite growth, which is impossible, so corporations fake it by cutting costs to pad their financial reports with new "profits". Workers and customers both suffer for this illusion.
One of my favorite reviews from the gentleman in quite some time, I must say. Some times a little bump in the road leads to a fun ride, even if it wasn’t the exact ride you were expecting. Excellent video, as always.
There is something so beautiful about Reviewbrah eating garbage food so we don’t have to. Some call it madness. Some call it torture. But we call it the ultimate sacrifice to spare us from needless suffering. All hail Reviewbrah.
@@chriscraven9335 Personally I think it is a sacrifice he makes for us because each time he buys food and it turns out to be bad, the more money he wastes on garbage. And food nowadays costs a lot. (Haha sorry, don't mean to bother you as you commented this over 5 months ago so you may think it's weird..)
I feel like it's mostly the customers to blame they create these hostile environments for the workers so the people who make the food just stop caring.
@@Soggywafflecakes nah fuck that, people want edible food for a decent price and these fucking corporations are pushing down the pedal of cutting corners to get in the greedflation post covid
@@SoggywafflecakesThe average customer isn’t some hostile person out to cause problems for the workers. In fact, the average customer isn’t even going to come complain about their food being wrong. They’re just going to silently resolve not to go back to that food place. Fast food workers are falling off because the new blood doesn’t give a damn.
Update, the Arby's that made this sandwich has now closed. They've covered the windows, removed the signs and cut the power to the building. Next week McDonalds will start building their building on the lot
We've all had it happen where you get drive-thru and they forget something or they give you a different item than what you asked for but I don't think I've ever heard of anyone getting an item that wasn't even on the menu
I took a look at the menu. You got a one of a kind custom sandwich! I did see the Bourbon Barbeque listed. I guess it is the one you were supposed to receive.
it's kind of scary how lately many reviews have boiled down to "it'll sustain life but does not make it worth living" this man sacrifices himself to make sure we don't eat garbage
@@theartistcherrypi6454 This refined gentleman has graced us with his presence - it would be a sin not to enjoy every moment we can. Seriously, this man redefines the term "classy," and brings it back to an age when a man was under dressed if he did not wear a suit. His voice and mannerisms reflect that. Instead of saying "we don't deserve him," we should be reaching for that standard as best we can - polite behavior, honourable conduct, snappy dressing. No moping around the house in frumpy clothes, no talking badly about or to others, and no disrespectful attitudes in public. He shows us a better way to be ourselves. He's someone to recognize as a positive role model.
I can say with no hesitation that they have raised their prices but the quality and service has in fact gotten far worse. I travel for work and across the country it's the same sad story.
My experience with Arby’s has been if you order anything to go you NEED to go thru the bag and check EACH item because they will just put any thing in the bag so they can get to the next car/truck/suv, etc in line… it doesn’t seem to matter so much as what you order as to what they have available to put in your sack…..
Hey reviewbrah I’ve been watching you since around 100k subs, you’ve really grown and it’s great to see you thriving! Much love and I’m sorry this review didn’t go as planned. May your journeys be prosperous and your blue chalice overflow with the nectar of Baja blast!
I’m new to your channel and this may be obvious, but I picture myself 100 years ago laying in the floor around a ginormous wooden radio listening to the announcer coming through with crackles. I love every bit of your production!!

In pop culture Arby’s is known for The Simpsons making fun of them.
I think you nailed the fast food experience in 2023:
It's a wonder if you get what you order properly made, let alone get it in the first place.
Paying people less than 15$/hour does wonder...

@@cheutho Of course the onus is on employee to get your order correct. I'll never argue against that.
I'm merely saying, you can save yourself the grief of getting the wrong order by taking the precaution of assuming there's a big chance they got something wrong, and confirming first hand everything is correct.
As for what happened in this Arby's review... could have been someone not knowing how to make a sandwich... could have just been handed the wrong bag. It could have been a disgruntled employee that doesn't care and sabotages sandwiches for random customers. It'll always be a mystery. But a simple 20 second inspection could have resolved the issue and saved the review.
@@wewantthecup Like the Big Mac I got years ago that had everything on the sandwich except the meat.
@@theartistcherrypi6454 Hahaha damn. They gave you a Small Mac
I don't even eat fast food, I just love watching this guy.. I don’t even eat food, I just love watching this guy.
Arbys has failed the last few sandwich attempts. They just need to bring back some items people actually want.
Like the potato cakes.
Exactly, I mean if it wasn't broke, why do they keep trying to screw it up?
@cavezombie83 If you have an Arby's with breakfast, they should still have them. But I agree they need to bring th back to all stores, and the pizza sliders!!!
Agree
The roast beef juniors too
I work at an Arby's and whoever made that did it with the wrong sauce, like a complete idiot. I am sorry, man
Fast food is like a box of chocolates… that’s been left out in the hot sun, run over, rummaged thru by some stray animals, and then finally sold to you for $12.99 with a $3 up charge.
Lol accurate as fuck
That's why 90% of the time I rather eat instant ramen or cup noodles when I have to get food quickly
@@DefinitelyNotEmma never buy premium fast food
The only Buffalo items on Arby's menu appears to be chicken. The chef was evidently dissociating, which, I mean, happens.
"Logistical shortfall" - words that can be used to describe this Arby's concoction - and also the kind of day I've been having today!! But you just made things a whole lot better and you most certainly don't need to apologise. Thank you, young fella 🔥
Whats even funnier about this review is that, every Arby's I've been to or worked at, the buffalo sauce is the ONLY sauce that isn't stored in a squirt bottle. It's in a tin that we'd just dunk the chicken into before slamming the meat on the sandwiches. Whoever did this to you had zero clue what was happening.
In general, I think fast food quality has drastically dropped. Granted, it wasn't the healthiest thing, but now the portions are smaller, they're more expensive, and they honestly don't even taste as good as it used to.
Yeah it’s sad really. I remember going to kfc back in the day with my boys but now it’s just such bad quality and too expensive
BK Whopper, and BK big fish for example.
Who remembers Taco Bell from the 90’s? Anyone?
They can't even put a double hamburger together at McDonald's anymore. All of today's workers are dopes
Gotta love shrinkflation!
My friend... you could buy a Big Mac and just throw the whole thing away and not give a review and I still would not expect an apology. You bring a lot of joy to my life and many others and no one cares people who are paid to make good food cant do it. You will always make good reviews and for your consistency we always come back!
I Googled to see if they had any other sandwich on the menu to fit the ingredients on your sandwich, but didn't find any rib sandwich from them other than the one you expected to get.
WHAT'S INCLUDED:
Country Style Pork Ribs
Natural Cheddar
Crispy Onion Strings
Pickles
Bourbon BBQ Sauce
Toasted Bun
I dieeed when you asked "is that Lettuce? Also, "I think they put Buffalo sauce on it" That whole sandwich is a disaster!! Also, I LOVE watching you! The polite mannerism with dry humor is the best!!
"Unknown sandwich... going in."
You're a legend.
What is you talking about?
The Arby’s in my neighborhood closed down…I’m assuming due to poor sales and fails like this. The workers there always seemed liked they’d rather be anywhere else but at Arby’s.
It's a bit of a surprise that Reviewbrah doesn't use white gloves to handle such "gourmet delicacies".
Im impressed how he spent 12 years reviewing products and didnt go insane, unless he's already insane
By my years of research on ReviewBrah, man has most likely gone insane.
He just provides a different perspective on the concept of sane
He got the best medical care from the 19th century, he's good😁
There is a conflict in every human heart between the rational and the irrational, between good and evil. The good does not always triumph.
Every man has got a breaking point. You and I have. Reviewbrah has reached his. And very obviously, he has gone insane.
He never likes anything 😂
The quality of the sandwhich does not in any way take away from the quality of your reviews. Thank you for keeping them honest and for highlighting the quality we are getting after frequent price increases! Aside from the fact that they butchered the sandwhich, I'm still hungry enough that i would try it out if i was actually willing to pay $8 for it, which im definitly not😂
You're everything that's right in this world. I follow you for your reviews AND your personality/kindness.
That looks like it would be so good with the right sauce. No cheese. No bun. No lettuce. Just a bunch of meat and bbq sauce on a plate.
I imagine everyone of the owners of the companies of fast-food he review sweating so much when they see one of his videos ! 😂
Nah, they still know the public will consume this junk no matter what
this IS your average fast food experience in 2023
Never apologize. It’s truly our honor.
outrageous!... Alexa, get me the commander in chief of The Pentagon
Arby’s definitely has the meats maybe not the brains 😂
They have meat for brains!
I dunno, that seems like something they might have on a “special” menu, along with “long pig.”
What I liked right on the last one I watched he said on a 17 minute stream at about 2-5 minutes in he says, I won't waste your time it's good if you need to stop watching. Or something like that. This kid is a gem and a true first class act!
Keep up the great work
Food-eating Reviewbrah is just one of his manifestations. You haven't really lived if you haven't heard shortwave-radio Reviewbrah.
He's one wild mamma jamma on there.
getting the wrong item and being disappointed about it. what a truly accurate review of the average american fast food experience in 2023
Thank you for steering me away from Arbys for another 15 years. 😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Lol!
Another 40 for me...
What is she talking about?
"From cow...all the way to shark" 🤣 Love it, mate
Gosh you are so unique .
I do not even consume Fast Food here in Germany but it is pure joy and fun to watch your masterpieces .
Ty ❤😂
"My disappointment is immeasurable, and my day is ruined."
Hey reviewbrah, i don't know if you'll read this and if you do, i don't know what effect will have on you. But it's not necessary to apologise for not getting the item when it's not even your fault. I am from Argentina and i don't even eat fast food, so, like a lot of people, we watch you not becase of the food, but because of you. We don't really know you at all, but even in this parasocial relationship, we really enjoy hearing your eloquent analysis of this kinda stuff, it's really fun and you bring a lot of personality to food made by a soulless company.
Life has been grim for the whole world and me, so just getting some nice video from you once a week, it's a bright spot in my life. Hope you don't get discouraged and thanks man.
Let's get one thing perfectly clear. Your reviews are not failures. It's the failures from these fast food restaurants that are motivating people like me to make our own sandwiches at home, which more often than not are actually better than the real thing. All you are doing is looking out for our tastebuds and our bottom dollar, so keep doing your thing and we'll keep enjoying it.
Something very similar happened once to Marcel Proust. His usual order of lime blossom tea was mixed up with a chilled glass of Dr Pepper, and a whole chapter of Swann's Way was lwrecked.
Very underrated comment
Well done!! You always handle everything with class and finesse!
Hello Sir John !!! You are looking well and nicely groomed, as usual. Hope all is well and thank you for always being YOU. !!
What i appreciate about this channel is he does his research prior, takes notes and is genuinely trying to give an accurate description and review.
Disappointment: Immeasurable
Day: RUINED.
" must have been a logistical shortfall " such a nice way of saying they fully messed up. Such a good dude.
Boy it seems like these days every industries quality is taking a nose dive
Yeah, and the steepness of the dive is inversely proportional to the increase in price !
@@axiomist4488 Yeah, the prices at fast food places have made my wife and I cook 9 meals out of 10 at home. Such has helped our budget for sure though so it's a good thing really.
Welcome to the Apocalaughs
Military industrial complex: bonjour
1) Use quality/convenience of product/service to establish brand loyalty
2) Expand your reach as far as possible to become dominant market force
3) Use profits to undercut or buy out as much competition as you can (primarily local/small businesses)
4) Slowly reduce quality/convenience of product/service while raising prices, relying on brand loyalty and market dominance to retain customers
We're in stage 4 for a lot of physical and digital industries right now. The stock market demands infinite growth, which is impossible, so corporations fake it by cutting costs to pad their financial reports with new "profits". Workers and customers both suffer for this illusion.
One of my favorite reviews from the gentleman in quite some time, I must say. Some times a little bump in the road leads to a fun ride, even if it wasn’t the exact ride you were expecting.
Excellent video, as always.
There is something so beautiful about Reviewbrah eating garbage food so we don’t have to. Some call it madness. Some call it torture. But we call it the ultimate sacrifice to spare us from needless suffering. All hail Reviewbrah.
I wouldn't say he necessarily does that. Taking a few bites of trash food is not eating it. But, he IS taste testing that shit for us.
@@chriscraven9335 Personally I think it is a sacrifice he makes for us because each time he buys food and it turns out to be bad, the more money he wastes on garbage. And food nowadays costs a lot. (Haha sorry, don't mean to bother you as you commented this over 5 months ago so you may think it's weird..)
Not only did they get his order wrong completely, it was also total expensive shite.
No apology needed! I love watching you no matter what! ❤️
Bring back the in car reviews so you can get the right item and get it fresh vs slow delivery
Fast Food companies have never been the paragon of food service, but 2023 tops ANYTHING I've ever experienced before.
I feel like it's mostly the customers to blame they create these hostile environments for the workers so the people who make the food just stop caring.
@@Soggywafflecakes nah fuck that, people want edible food for a decent price and these fucking corporations are pushing down the pedal of cutting corners to get in the greedflation post covid
@@Soggywafflecakes that's the dumbest thing I've heard today. CONGRATS!
@@SoggywafflecakesThe average customer isn’t some hostile person out to cause problems for the workers. In fact, the average customer isn’t even going to come complain about their food being wrong. They’re just going to silently resolve not to go back to that food place. Fast food workers are falling off because the new blood doesn’t give a damn.
@@Soggywafflecakes BWA HA HA HA HA!....customers are way more accommodating now than 20-30 years ago. Your thesis fails hard.
It's supposed to have country style pork ribs, natural cheddar, crispy onion strings, pickles, BOURBON BBQ sauce, all on a toasted bun. 😅
Of course they screwed it up😢 that’s why I don’t even bother with fast food anymore it’s never right🤷♂️
Update, the Arby's that made this sandwich has now closed. They've covered the windows, removed the signs and cut the power to the building. Next week McDonalds will start building their building on the lot
Ambiance is looking especially Lovecraftian today!
We've all had it happen where you get drive-thru and they forget something or they give you a different item than what you asked for but I don't think I've ever heard of anyone getting an item that wasn't even on the menu
Ironically, the food f ups are the most entertaining videos to me. I've had the worst service from Arby's.
I took a look at the menu. You got a one of a kind custom sandwich! I did see the Bourbon Barbeque listed. I guess it is the one you were supposed to receive.
The review wasn’t a failure, the sandwich was.
This item is called the "Screw Up", it's served at every fast food.
it's kind of scary how lately many reviews have boiled down to "it'll sustain life but does not make it worth living"
this man sacrifices himself to make sure we don't eat garbage
you put it so beautifully
We don’t deserve him 😩
@@theartistcherrypi6454 This refined gentleman has graced us with his presence - it would be a sin not to enjoy every moment we can. Seriously, this man redefines the term "classy," and brings it back to an age when a man was under dressed if he did not wear a suit. His voice and mannerisms reflect that. Instead of saying "we don't deserve him," we should be reaching for that standard as best we can - polite behavior, honourable conduct, snappy dressing. No moping around the house in frumpy clothes, no talking badly about or to others, and no disrespectful attitudes in public.
He shows us a better way to be ourselves. He's someone to recognize as a positive role model.
I would return the unused portion for a refund. 8 Bucks WTF.
I love how fast food has raised their prices, but kept the same low quality and service.
I can say with no hesitation that they have raised their prices but the quality and service has in fact gotten far worse. I travel for work and across the country it's the same sad story.
@@notimportant3394 it's only gonna get worse...
My experience with Arby’s has been if you order anything to go you NEED to go thru the bag and check EACH item because they will just put any thing in the bag so they can get to the next car/truck/suv, etc in line… it doesn’t seem to matter so much as what you order as to what they have available to put in your sack…..
Where did you buy your RV. I want one
@@Policy503 Hi, I'm not sure I understand your question - could you clarify the question please.
Hey reviewbrah I’ve been watching you since around 100k subs, you’ve really grown and it’s great to see you thriving! Much love and I’m sorry this review didn’t go as planned. May your journeys be prosperous and your blue chalice overflow with the nectar of Baja blast!
I’m new to your channel and this may be obvious, but I picture myself 100 years ago laying in the floor around a ginormous wooden radio listening to the announcer coming through with crackles. I love every bit of your production!!
If these companies were smart, one of them would bring on reviewbruh and make a limited meal with him. Forget niki Minaj or whomever
Facts 💯
Would be the best collab in history
I want a happy meal that looks like a tuxedo lol
@TheReportOfTheWeek, if you go to the Netherlands by any chance ever in your life I would love to introduce you to some typical Dutch fast food snacks. Would love to see you review those.
Maybe they should add a 'Surprise me' item for the people who don't know what they want to eat.
you gotta get the orange cream shake during the summer!! I love them
Looking extra sharp today man 👌
im glad you still release the content even when the product is wrong
