Glad we have Firehouse subs here! 2000 times better anyway.

[SoFloFreeper]

They just lost my business. Forever. And I *was* a good.customer.

[JaguarXKE]

Firehouse is much better anyway!

Agreed better, but about twice as expensive. Publix deli makes pretty good subs too.

I am with you. I cut ties with any business that partners with her or him.

[Secret Agent Man]

i think mooch’s real campaign she’s been on for 50 years isn’t “let’s move”, it’s “let’s eat”.

[Herosmith]

Wife and I get the same! Alas, I will no longer be patronizing it though. Figure they will lose ~$400/ year.

Sad.

A large hunk of fat with a hint of arugula and tasteless dressing, and big buns.

Wrapped in a copy of Pravda.

[JaguarXKE]

Agree about Publix. Don’t have where I live but tried them while on business trip to Cape Canaveral.

[ClearBlueSky]

Actually, she’s the perfect shill. Subway food isn’t what it is advertised to be, and she is as duplicitous as they come. Public picture-vs-reality; they’re both selling one thing and giving you another.
Too bad-Subway tastes good, it just isn’t what it’s advertised to be.

[dalereed]

I’ll never eat another one of their sandwiches!!!!

[ClearBlueSky]

Hey, I’m in the land of the 12 inch messy, roast beef po boy and the fried shrimp and oyster ‘peacemaker’ po boy !!. No one here really NEEDS Subway.

[Manic_Episode]

Sent them this: “If I ever see Michelle Obama doing Subway ads my family will never eat Subway again, which is a shame because we love Subway. Have a nice day.”

[Rebelbase]

On crusty french bread too. Lucky you.

[bytesmith]

I was just getting ready to head to Subway.
Think I’ll skip it, now.

Permanently.

Same here. What are the Subway execs thinking?

[rllngrk33]

I used to go into Subway on rare occasions just to remind me why I don’t eat there any more. Their bread tastes like it’s not done, too soft and squishy.

Best Comment nominee:

“Michelle wants a $5 foot-long”

“So does Barry”

[SWAMPSNIPER]

Subway’s Facebook page has gone totally bonkers, lol. It will be interesting to see if they respond.

[Tallguy]

They’ll have to shoot these spots in between Michelle’s busy vacation travel schedule.

[SWAMPSNIPER]

They operate in a near vacuum and have no clue about the people in flyover country.
