Reallllly? Jimmy John’s is super fast and their bread tastes delicious. Jersey Mike’s tastes amazing and fresh. Subway doesn’t taste fresh. It tastes like prepackaged deli meat, old veggies, and their bread is mediocre. So as far as sandwiches go, its s pretty lackluster affair.
I’d probably say: jersey Mike’s, Jimmy John’s, then waaaaaay down I’d put subway.
The new sandwiches became available Tuesday, though customers can still make substitutions or create their own sandwiches.
If you walked into a store and ordered the classic black forest ham, by default it basically comes plain and you’re expected to pick out your own preferred toppings. But if you go in and order the new grand slam ham instead, it by default comes with a reasonable set of default toppings. You’re still allowed to customize but now a lot of people won’t need to.
And all this is moot for online ordering since the website does include default toppings for the classic sandwiches.
Cheaper to just make a PB&J then. A lot cheaper. Fast food is unreasonably priced now anyway.
Besides, I was more addressing the weird loyalty people have to chains, not them using it. People arguing over which chain sub shop is the best when they’re all about the same is weird.
I am so lucky to live in a redneck shithole that is also weirdly ethnically diverse since it means I can get damn near any food I want. Real shame I will just get a smashed potato bowl from KFC for the 3rd time in a row, atleast its real fucken cheap.
Subway sandwiches are pretty damn disappointing. People commonly say that for a real reason.
I say this as someone who used to work in a part of town that had two walkable options for lunch. 1) the office refrigerator, or 2) subway. I ate a lot of subway when I was too lazy to brown bag it. Having sampled that entire shitty menu, I can confidently say that place makes the saddest sandwich in town.
I’m only snarking them because they chose to live in America (bad mistake) and they said they’re in LA (they have options). They’re not a victim of circumstance, they’re a garbage seeking intercontinental shithead.
You think nobody thought of that, Jared? Why didn’t they find fish DNA in the tuna sandwiches? They can’t even legally call their bread “bread” in places with normal food laws.
It’s bad food, but as each new historical crime against humanity teaches us, you truly can get used to anything.
Subway must be stoked. They don’t have to raise pay, and Panera is getting all the heat.
Anyone that voluntarily eats at Subway was probably a lost cause to begin with.
Their build your own sub thing is pretty neat (if insanely expensive) Honestly between them, Jimmy Johns, and Jersey Mikes, I think they win.

To be honest, anyone taking a ‘snobbish’ approach to fast food sandwiches is probably a lost cause to begin with.
Subway wins because they have the best deals. Usually, there’s a code you can enter to get BOGO footlongs.
But you’re probably too proud to get ripped off to realize that.
I thought they stopped this build your own thing? I recall there was a backlash over it.
That would be silly. It’s like chipotle, everything is behind glass in the front and you tell em what you want while they make it.

Here is the source. Maybe they backtracked this stupid decision.
That article also says:

If those are the choices, it doesn’t matter who “wins”, we all lose.
You know there are independently owned delis right?
You know not all of us are single hipsters who work from home in IT? Some of us just need a sandwich of known quality for a reasonable price quickly.

I live in NJ, so I also have plenty of real options. I will still eat at Wawa, but I’m not proud of it. The Wawa vs QuickChek bros are cringe.
Nice meme.
I can tell you can think for yourself.

Yeah, it’s because most people can’t think for themselves and just want to fit in with others.
I see it all the time.
If my dog could talk, this is what she would tell me after she ate cat shit.
Good job.
You fit in.
I guess that just means more turds for you.
Is this Jared Fogles’ prison account or something?
Do you just say nonsense as if you have a point?
I’m just saying that the way you are hyping up a bland sandwich corporation reminds me of a certain someone, is all.
Nice sarcasm. I can tell you have a favourite subway sandwich.
Hey, lots of people have a favorite subway sandwich. It’s whatever one is regularly least disappointing! Sometimes it’s the only option for lunch :')

I’d like to shove a 6" honey-oat turkey breast and ham with lettuce, light mayo and black olives into your sarcastic mouth son
