Arby’s Is Offering a Vegetarian Menu on Leap Day, Including a Toasted Bun with Nothing on It

Arby’s will be offering its first vegetarian menu for Leap Day on Monday, supposedly as a way to reach out to the vegetarian community, but they’re really just making FUN of them.

 

They didn’t actually change anything, it’s just their regular menu, minus the meat.  So the veggie version of their Junior Bacon Cheddar Melt is just a bun with cheddar cheese sauce.

 

They posted a photo of their Vegetarian Roast Beef Sandwich, which is JUST A BUN, but costs the same as the regular version.

 

It’s the regular menu, minus the meat.

On February 29, Arby’s will have no meats.

According to the press release, they plan to bring back the vegetarian menu on February 29 every year if the promotion goes well.  But obviously that date only happens once every four years.

 

And it doesn’t matter anyway, because you could order all the stuff on the new menu whenever you WANT, just ask for it without meat.

 

In other words, they’re not going out of their way to cater to vegetarians at all, and their regular artery-clogging menu will also still be available.
