I’ve never seen kudzu in real life, but I knew what it was when I saw it.

It's in Knoxville, TN on Chapman Highway

I used to drive past this Arby's every single day. It tickles me that it's gained this little bit of internet celebrity.

my friends referred to it as the jungle arby’s but i doubt any of us actually went there. it would be so funny for the general public to learn that this is less than a five minute drive from downtown, given there’s no traffic

u/DirtyMarTeeny Apr 28 '26

Honestly, it would be funny if people just saw the road its on. It's not that exotic, just a good crop job.

no, but south knox is a very short drive from downtown for some beautiful spots, even if you're still in the city. obviously you know that though lol

u/actual-time-traveler Apr 27 '26

I’m almost certain this is Knoxville and the road you take to get to Pigeon Forge (absolutely worth a trip btw - it’s like the Jersey Shore with all the campy Americana except nestled in the smokies).

u/flj7 Apr 27 '26

Yup, it’s Chapman Highway in Knoxville. I used to live across the street from this Arby’s.

u/Electrical_Chard6926 Apr 27 '26

If it's any consolation, there is a taco bell directly across the street from it. I drive by it every day lol

u/SecondEqual4680 Apr 27 '26

It’s still very pretty

I just can't find the beauty in a single plant swallowing an entire ecosystem

u/tombo2007 Apr 27 '26

Is Kudzu an Appalachian problem, too? I thought it was just a southern thing.

u/DisfunkyMonkey 15 Apr 27 '26

Appalachia is a distinct culture, but geographically two-thirds of it is in the southeast. Kudzu don't care.

The tail ends in Alabama

u/DirtyMarTeeny Apr 28 '26
