Will try them out. Think there is one off the interstate commute. Fairly sure I had some years back.
It’s the best fast food by far. Nothing I get is fried. Cold Cut combo and water is affordable.
After they slammed homeschooling and ran advertising in Germany making fun of the US military, I have refused to darken their door.
The last time I ate at Subway was about five years ago and I had to cover the sandwich in mustard just to give it taste, it was that bland.
The fresh-baked bread smell at Subways always smelled too much like dirty socks to me, but now they don’t smell like that any more. I wonder why?
It is hard to live up to the “fresh” brand promise when you are making subs in a gas station store.
I’ve seen the Firehouse Subs ads on TV, but we have none around here (central NY state). There’s one near Albany where my oldest son lives. I’ve gone to DiBella’s Old Fashioned Submarines shops, but again, the closest one to me is near Albany...about 90 miles east of me. Subway is actually the only sub shop we have here.
Their meats are ALL hallal, which frosts it for me! Hallal meats are processed by ragheads, wipe their butts with their bare hands and DO NOT have any federal or any other sanitary regulations. Welcome to Sharia, baby! I haven ‘t been to Subway since hallal was announced a year or more ago. No thanks. Not THAT hungry!
I stopped going to subway when they made the Mooch their spokesperson.
+1 on that! The local store we go to on Academy in Albuquerque has great staff and good sandwiches at reasonable prices. The manager (Lucas) is a vet, and he and his and several of his staff know us by name (we go about once a week). Always good flavor.
It's a little more expensive than Subway, but the price is made up for in meat/cheese, not bread. One of the medium (about 7-8 inches) subs at Firehouse has more meat and cheese than a foot-long Subway.
This thread is making me hungry - and I just had lunch!
There’s a Subway nearby. Ate there once, got cramps! Two doors down is a quick Chinese place. Much better food, and it only takes a couple of minutes.
Their tuna is ok if you order double “meat”. The pictures of their sandwiches have meat that is rolled and folded nicely making for a sandwich with a nice looking texture. In reality, they use pre-packaged slices of flat meat and lay it across the bread flatter than a sheet of cardboard and about as tasty. It makes for a very unappealing sandwich. Their warm cookies at 3 for-a-buck can be very good when fresh.
I like the Oven Roasted Chicken on Italian Cheese bread. I ask for ALL the vegetables except Cucumber because my husband does not like that. I get the foot long and split it with him. Very economical meal.
One of Subway’s problems (IMO) is that they’ve saturated many of their local markets. There are three Subways within a 1.5 mile radius of my house, and if you double the distance, so does the number of their outlets.
At one time, Subway was notorious for selling a franchise to a local owner, and (if the location proved successful), opening a company-owned restaurant a few blocks away so they could get in on the action as well.
I like their food, and it’s much healthier than most fast food joints. But I think the world could survive—and they could be just as profitable—with fewer stores.
Bacon is halal? Ham is halal?
That was good cheese.
When Moochelle became part of their advertising campaign, I stopped being part of their customer base.
Subway in USA is not halal. A small percentage in UK are.
