Uuurrrghhh that Arbey's Beef n Cheddar monster looks vile! And I'm talking both photos. I dread to think of the calories in one of those.

For the commercials and advertisements, they must spend an hour just making the one burger look perfect so people will buy it. What they should do is use that bottom pic in their advertisements.
If I owned a fast food chain, I'd use a pic like that and have a slogan like "We don't beef up our beef. Our burgers are messy and sloppy, and we're damn proud!" ;D

For someone that worked at Arbys for over 10 years..that's not what it looks like unless someone smashed the bun,there is 445 calories compared to 670 in a whopper,576 in a Big Mac(no cheese)
