I go to Arby's for lunch today. Chicken fingers with ranch dressing and curly fries. They don't have ranch dipping sause, so they always give me a regular packet of salad dressing. Awesome stuff, BTW. Anyway, I get my food, and turn around to the fountain soda area, and all the red Coca Cola stickers are gone, and there are blue Pepsi stickers there instead! WTF?!? The teenager behind the counter told me they just switched yesterday. Did they get bought out or what? I have never seen an Arby's serve anything but Coke. I freakin hate Pepsi. I guess I'll just have to use the drive thru from now on and get a coke at the corner mart.
I never thought about this before, but have you ever noticed that Coke labels are red and Pepsi labels are blue. Just like states. Is Coca-Cola a Republican beverage, and Pepsi a Democrat? Hmmmmm.... Something to think about. |
|
The only places I see that use Pepsi are Yum companies. Did Yum buy out Arbys?
|
|
Pissed me off to, I pulled up to the drive through and the menu looked totally different. So then I see Pepsi signs around but coke is still on the menu so I order a coke and they read it back as Pepsi...
MMmmmm...Arbys, now im hungry you asshole... |
|
The Arbys by my house has used Pepsi as long as I've lived here(since 2000)
Mmmm...the official fast food place of pirates ARRRRRRRBY's. I'm hungry now. Thanks efpeter. |

|
You're kidding....right? Bastards! |
|
|
I always get the unsweet iced tea anyway, haven't had a Coke or Pepsi in a long time.
|
|
I never liked Arby's to begin with.
and Pepsi is far superior to Coke |
|
arbys around here has always been pepsi..
ontime i went to a bugerking while i was traveling.. they had both pepsi and coke... |
|
Proving once again that Florida isn't part of the South. |
|
|
Coke taste like hillbilly piss.
Pepsi isn't much better. Dr. Pepper. Nectar of the gods it is. |

What's the big deal? As most southeners know Pepsi is a kind of coke.
|
|
I hope you're not one of those ignorant motherfuckers that refer to every non-beer carbonated beverage as "Coke" Redneck lexicon: Coke=Coke Pepsi=Coke Sprite=Coke Mountain Dew=Coke Orange Soda=Coke That's the most retarded shit ever! I've seen retards call LEMONADE Coke because it came out of the same soda fountain as a coke. When I go into a resturaunt and order a "Coke" i sure as shit don't want to be asked "what kind" unless they're refering to the diet abomination |

Arby's used to always be pepsi. One of the few fast food joints I could find mt dew on tap.
|
|
Screw that asshole. He acts all high and mighty just because he got his phD. I'm a Mr. Pibb fan! |
|
|
No potato cakes???? This is some kind of communist plot! |
|
|
How do you sleep at night you monster? |
|
|
Pepsi is ALOT less expensive to have in a restaurant than Coke. That's why alot of companies are now switching over to Pepsi.
I hate Pepsi. |
|
Especially knowing the fact that a Dr. Pepper is nothing but a cheap imitation of a Cherry Coke. |
||
|
And you're not risking a good thrashing with a samurai sword...stick with pepsi...you'll be glad you did... |
|
|
I just wish fast food restaurants would serve beer. I love Chipotle for this reason, also giant burritos are awesome.

Arby's(R) Restaurants Chooses Pepsi; Also Adds Dr Pepper To Beverage Selection For the first time in the brand's 40 year history, Arby's is aligning its restaurants with a national soft drink beverage program. Arby's has signed agreements to serve PepsiCo (Nachrichten/Aktienkurs) products, including Pepsi, Diet Pepsi, Mountain Dew, Sierra Mist, Mug Root Beer, and Tropicana Lemonade as well as Cadbury Schweppes Americas Beverages products, Dr Pepper and Diet Dr Pepper, in its nearly 3,500 Arby's restaurants. "PepsiCo's extensive portfolio of popular beverage brands, coupled with the opportunities available serving salty snacks, creates a mutually beneficial relationship," said Doug Benham, President&CEO of Arby's Restaurant Group, Inc. "The Pepsi team offers Arby's innovation expertise and a compelling service program. Dr Pepper offers a distinctive beverage choice that's as unique as our brand. These agreements mark the start of an exciting new chapter for Arby's." "Pepsi brings a wealth of marketing leverage and consumer insights in support of the growing Arby's brand," said Debbie Pike, Chief Marketing Officer of Arby's. "We felt creative synergy from the start, and look forward to offering our customers even more reasons to visit Arby's." "Arby's is a unique brand with a strong commitment to innovation. From their signature roast beef sandwiches to their Market Fresh(TM) sandwiches, wraps and salads, Arby's offers craveable tastes for a broad variety of consumers," said Dawn Hudson, President and CEO, Pepsi-Cola North America. "We have enjoyed great relationships with individual Arby's franchisees for years and through this agreement we look forward to collaborating with the entire Arby's system." |

Now how could that be considering that Dr. Pepper was the first soda ever made? |
|||
|
Cherry Coke does NOT taste like Dr. Pepper.
Dr. Pepper tastes nasty. |
|
I don't blame arbys. I used to work in a resteraunt and coke treats resteraunt owners like shit. They charge more than pepsi did for syrup and if it is a new resteraunt pepsi will gladly supply you with a fountain and coke will not. Pepsi has its act together when it comes to dealing with its resteraunt customers. We just kept a couple of twelve packs of coke in the fridge if someone was going to cry because we did not have coke. In the end the resteraunt is better off cost wise going with pepsi.

|
Soft drink order of greatness goes like this:
1. Dr. Pepper 2. Pepsi 3. Mt. Dew 4. Pepsi One 5. Cheerwine |
|
Yep, it all boils down to who's giving them the better deal, and for right now, evidently it's Pepsi. |
|
|
The ones around here still serve them. |
|
|
The one thing I will give pepsi is MUG Rootbeer.
That's the best gosh damn store bought rootbeer moeny can buy. Viva La Coke. |
|
ju gut pwn3d |

Not really, unless you wanna claim that where you live is not part of the South as well. |
||
|
And I'm VERY sure that Arby's will pass that savings on to the customer. Soda's will now cost .10 cents. Which is a 50 percent markup over their cost. Yes, I'm sure they will do that. |
||
|
I knew somebody would jump on it pretty quick |
|||||
|
Ummm.. No. Henry Weinhard Rootbeer is the best storebought rootbeer. That shit is good. |
|
|
Why yes I am! Well, me and 9 out of the other 10 people here in Georgia. |
|
|
Thay are still on the menu of the Arby's web site. |
||
|
We still get potato cakes in Denver and Arby's has always served Pepsi & Mtn Dew in Colorado. It must be a regional change. It might even be a franchise change. You might want to check other Arby's in the area. |
|
|
I can't believe this is even an issue. Pepsi or Coke, Arby's still SUCKS.
