I used to work near an Arby’s Roast Beef place, so frequently patronized it. I noticed that they always weighed the shaved beef before plopping it onto the bun, so I presume there are a standard set of weights for the various sandwiches…but I asked three of the clerks (on different occasions, naturally) and none of them would blab as to what they are.

So, tell me: how much roast beef do you get in a regular vs. a junior and so forth?

If nothing else, you might be able to estimate how much is in the sandwiches by using Arby’s [nutrition chart](http://www.arbys.com/arb06.html)

The regular as 3 oz. of meat.

Joke answer to your thread title: based on the one I go to, no. Take my order already!

Of course, you need to read my first line with a Cockney accent.
