Good for you! (Although I must say I loved Boston Market's chicken salad and
creamed spinach, as well as Coldstone Creamery...)

For a while I had a job in a location right next to an Arby's, so we ended
up buying food there occasionally. I never tried any of their beef things,
but there were two good items on the menu: the "fresh market" chicken or
turkey caesar sandwich and the Jamoca shake. The sandwich actually contained
real ingredients and came on good bread. The coffee shake was a guilty
pleasure.
