Well, they already had this. Appropriately named the 'meat mountain'. I assume the name is because you have to take a break halfway through before you can reach the summit.

I am determined to try and conquer one of those in my lifetime.

Won't make sense still. Here is why.

They already have the Max sandwich which is 7 ounces for $5.


They also have 3 regular roast beef sandwiches on constant sale for $5.25 (probably varies a bit in different areas but it's about that).

Each regular roast beef sandwich is SUPPOSED to have 3 ounces.

It doesn't always though, but we'll go with 3 ounces anyway.

Obviously it's better to get 3 regular then 1 max.

It has the additional advantage of having the smaller buns, so you can take the roast beef from the 3rd sandwich and split it between the other two, giving you almost 5 ounces on each regular bun (much better bun to roast beef ratio then the Max.)

So yeah, half a pound, 8 ounces, is one more ounce then the current max AND one less ounce then the current 3 regulars for $5 deal.

If they charge more then $5 you would be crazy to purchase it.

Also, they are sorta forced to be at least close to the 3 ounces on a regular (although they have been known to put as little as 2 ounces on it). The larger the sandwich the more wiggle room they have, meaning they could easily give you 6 ounces on a half pound sandwich instead of 8 and it would be hard to tell.

If they give you 2 ounces instead of 3, you can tell pretty easily on a regular.

So yeah, not really anything new here, the max was already pretty much the same thing, for $5, but wasn't a good deal anyway.

Btw, while they still have the deal, your best bet is actually the Arby's Beef Gyro.

This comes with the same amount of roast beef as a Max sandwich (7 ounces), along with lettuce and tomatoes (and sauce and onions but I never get them on mine).

Btw, extra tomatoes are 45 cents, although honestly just buy a Roma Tomoto from the store for $1.50 and cut it up between your two sandwiches, you'll get way more tomatoes and it'll be spread out more).

But that is off topic.

Also the pita bread is soft and yummy.

Currently with the deal, you can get 2 for $6, which means 14 ounces of roast beef for $6 (along with the toppings).

It's a yummy meal, and you can always save the second one for later (unless your REALLY hungry).

Doubt they will have this deal forever, but they have had it for over 2 months now.

It blows everything else away as far as money to beef ratio.

The max is $5 for 7 ounces, the Gyro is currently $6 for 14 ounces. Even the 3 for 5.25$ deal is almost 6$ for 9 ounces.

It's not even close.
