Yesterday I treated myself, and honestly? Zero regrets.
I found out Arby’s has a $7.99 deal box that’s surprisingly reasonable for a once-in-a-while splurge.
You get:
*A regular-sized sandwich (roast beef or crispy chicken — not the giant one)
*Two mozzarella sticks
*Fries or potato cakes
*A small drink
*peach cobbler roll (about the size of an egg roll)
Everything comes neatly packed in one box, which honestly helps with portion control all by itself.
Is it “health food”? Nope.
Is it a massive calorie bomb? Also nope.
It’s one of those treats where you get to enjoy a few “naughty” bites — fries, cheese, something sweet — without going totally off the rails. Small portions, lots of flavor, very satisfying.
For me, that’s the sweet spot: enjoying food, not feeling deprived, and not turning a treat into a spiral.
Very tasty, very reasonable, and totally fine as an occasional indulgence. My husband was happy too. It was a cheap date and he got mozzarella sticks with marinara – his favorite.
