Census 2020 estimate for population

I recently was on a cross-continental road trip and was BLOWN AWAY that Arby's is absolutely thriving in the Heartland.

Some of us actually like the food. It's expensive for what you get, but it's the only fast food place that offers French dips.

Idk why it gets looked down on. It's super tasty and is always running deals like 2 for 6$ making it pretty affordable.

The French dip sandwich is great. I love curly fries too and they are the only major chain in my area that has them

What about McAlister's and Penn Station?

Arby's was around in the 1970s and 1980s, though I admit things were different then. Chains like Penn Station didn't exist when Arby's was getting established, or else weren't chains yet, and in my area, Arby's has a numerical advantage (more franchised sites). I don't think of Penn Station as fast food (or else think of it as sub shop) and don't think I have seen McAlister's in my metro area.

That makes sense. And mcalisters might just be a regional thing and is fairly recent.
