I didn't even know there were non-mall Panda Expresses. I've only seen them in the mall and haven't eaten at one since probably high school.
Neither did I until one was built in the middle of one of our supermarket grocery store's parking lot. Now I feel I must give it a try.

I get roast beef with bacon and cheddar at our work's deli all the time. Its good shit.
I'll have to try - I'm going to try after McCheese giving it a thumbs up. My main worry is texturally it seems off unless the bacon is kept reasonably tender. Nice crispy bacon w/ super soft roast beef on a super soft Hawaiian bun - sounds odd. But again, will try - just need to be near Arby's side of town to.

Do you like Nacho Cheese Doritos but wish they were nacho cheesier and a little lighter and crispier?

I wouldn't say they're better than the Doritos, they lack that hefty crunch that makes them so satisfying, but they were good. I mean, as far as shitty cheesy tortilla chips go and all.

It was really crispy bacon, but really crumbly, too. It wasn't cracking and breaking when I bit into it, but rather just kind of crumbled off. I assume that's because of the brown sugar coating it had. Then again, when it comes to bacon, fast food joints tend to be hit-or-miss with how they cook it. YMMV.

I don't get the point of them. They only have like 4 less calories. If you hate Oreo filling then you're a heathen that doesn't deserve to live.

I had the Arby's BLT today which is just an assload of their new brown sugar bacon with lettuce/tomato/mayo on the bun. The picture looked amazing but sadly I did not enjoy it. There was just WAY too much brown sugar on that bacon and it totally overpowered everything else. I felt like I was eating a candy sandwich. The dog wound up eating the last 3rd of it. Would have been delicious without all that sugar. Might have been better if you dumped a bunch of salt on it to even out the sweetness but either way the bacon was totally wasted.

This. The whole point of the oreo is the filling, the cookie themselves are not all that good(I cant even eat the cookie parts without milk).

I've always like the vanilla better then chocolate oreos. But not made by Nabisco, just the off brands are fine.

Never been a big fan of oreos, the cookie it too overpowering.

When you're eating 2 packages at a time McCheese style those calories add up!

They supposedly have 20 fewer calories per 4 cookies than the regular version has per 3. Obviously though they're both made from the same ingredients, so the calories by weight are exactly the same.

And the wafers are thinner as well joeboo. The ratio of filling to cookie is unchanged.

Their structural integrity after being soaked in milk is a critical concern. I must test them side by side, for science.

I love when bits of cookies get soggy and fall into the glass of milk during the dipping process. After you've polished off the cookies you get that final, sweet, semi-cookie-flavored milk to drink. Soooo good.
