The name does set expectations pretty high. Maybe they should change the name to “Adequate Rib”. The meal comes, and one thinks, “Well, this isn’t all that bad”, and before you know it, another satisfied customer.
Funny thing that “labeling” one never sees “past prime” or “old prime”.. 3 day prime. Like fish… you never see old fish.. always fresh or frozen.. and yet, it must get old. Perhaps they freeze it when it gets old.
I remember asking the guy at the grocery store meat counter what “aged beef” was, because if it wasn’t cooked or frozen in three days, it spoiled just like not aged beef. He didn’t know.
I wouldn’t eat it either. It’s brown, which means it’s overcooked and went right past it’s prime level of cooking. I might eat mine way more rare than most people would prefer, but that one resembles a shoe to me. Still, he’s rude, as usual.
When I lived in Japan, had a friend who wanted their steak cooked very rare. 20 seconds on each side. Meat was so bloody it mixed with everything on the plate. Course he was a doctor and I think he had some sort of a phobia.

Not true sir. When our beef is past its prime we put it through the grinder, fry it, and serve it in our hamburgers.

I recall a funny Snuffy Jenkins song “I Want My Rib”, about Adam wanting his rib back after spending some time with Eve.

It usually is when it’s a hunk of dead meat. However, If the waiter is smart, he better make it right with him……

It must be terrible going through life for Veeblefester, never being satisfied with anything or anybody.

Does Arbys serve real beef? Can’t eat out—too much fat and salt in fast foods including some restaurants.
