I really can't understand the hate Arby's gets. I unironically believe it's one of the best fast food places out there. Their roast beef is delicious, especially with their cheddar sauce, their BBQ sauce is one of the best (out of fast food ones, it doesn't stand up as well when you expand the comparison to all sauces out there), and their horsey sauce is great, too. And their seasoned curly fries taste great on their own and their shape makes them pick up dilling sauce very well.

Or maybe their Canadian locations that I've been to were just outliers and way better quality than their average?

    US chains outside the US tend to be better because food regulations in general are better. rest of the world considers US meat unfit for human consumption

    rest of the world considers US meat unfit for human consumption

    That's... Not even remotely true. The US is one of the largest food and meat exporters in the world. There's a few notable cases of differing regulations resulting in trade issues but for the most part those are about local industry trade protection. Like, the US doesn't forbid washing poultry in the processing plant with a dilute bleach solution, and the EU says you can't do that. Ignoring that the US primarily uses other things, that the same substance is mandated for use by the EU for certain classes of seafood and vegetable, and that nearly every food service establishment on the planet uses it to clean nearly everything, where it's mandated for use by the EU, and documented as entirely harmless by their advisory health officials.
    But it does result in the EU buying poultry for moderately higher prices from member nations.

    Fast food is better outside the US because the chains are less established as options, so they need to try harder.

    I order the Roast Beef sandwiches with a SLICE of Natural Cheddar, rather than the Cheddar Goo.

    I'm totally addicted to the Horsey Sauce. Addicted.
