EmotionDetector Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 QUOTE (Ancient Ways @ May 28 2012, 11:07 AM) QUOTE (EmotionDetector @ May 28 2012, 10:37 AM) What the hell is wrong with Subway?!? Man...they must stink in the States, because the Subway's I've been to here in Canada are great. I don't eat out often, and I almost never eat any fast food, but if I eat any 'fast food', it's always Subs. Make note: Never go to Subway in the USA. I think each one is a bit different and quality can be affected greatly by the employees since there is not a lot of supervision. Interesting that there are complaints about the bread since it baked in the restaurant every day, not shipped in. Yeah...I think it's interesting that the bread is part of people's complaints because it always tastes fresh and amazing at the stores I go to. It's one of the reasons I love going to Subway. I guess it truly just comes down to the individual stores, and who's working there. Subs are my only 'fast food' choice...I usually never go anywhere else.

ReflectedLight Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 i haven't had subway in a long time but the only type of hero i ordered from them was the one with nothing but vegetables and a little southwestern dressing, and it wasn't bad at all.

LeaveMyThingAlone Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 I like how Subway always tries to shove it down our throats what a healthy way it is to go to eat it every day. Yeah, it's probably more healthy than your typical fast food crap, but that much bread is far from healthy. I used to eat subway or togo's or quizno's or deli about every day and I was pre-diabetic. I cut out most breads and pastas and it went back to normal and I've lost about 12 pounds. I think people need to be careful with these "healthy alternatives" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 of the 7 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 The two Subways in town here are worlds apart. The one my boyfriend and I go to is clean and the food is fresh, probably because they're busy and there's a fast turnover. You have to be tolerant of the appearance of the two girls who run it - one has pink hair and the other has enough piercings to set off a metal detector - but if you are, no problem. The other one is not as clean, fresh, or busy, doesn't have seafood salad, doesn't take coupons or give you as many points, is more expensive, some of the employees don't speak English, and all are treated badly by the owners.

librarian Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 (edited) Chain restaurants vary from location to location. I've never had a problem with a Subway. There is a WEN in near my town, and its awful, there is another near work and another in the mall that are fine. Don't get me started on DD'ohnuts - where I live - I really don't know how they stay open. They never have anything when you want it and furthermore, living in NYC for years - their bagels don't taste like anything. Nothing! Solid pile of nothing shaped like a bagel. Chew on a sock, it would probably taste better. AND you have to ask for napkins (serviettes for the people across the pond) and sugar or a straw, etc. at the drive thru because it doesn't occur to them that people may need them duh really???idiots.

presto123 Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 I'm too picky with the toppings to eat at Subway very often. I don't get my money's worth so I usually just get the Meatball sub which is defeating the purpose of trying to eat a little lighter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iluvgeddy05 Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 Yucko. I'm not so sure how much "healthier" Subway is either. Just because it's not fried or red (pink slime?) meat does not mean it's healthier. Deli meats in general are processed with a TON of chemicals and salt, including cheese. And that "fresh" bread? )I can't say I have seen Subway employees making putting together fresh yeast in the back, rolling out the dough and baking it. Most likely that bread was frozen and warmed in the ovens you see at the counter, mostly for space and convenience purposes.) Then add the dressings which are loaded with more chemicals and fat - and the "fat free" ones have sugar and salt dumped in to replace the flavor the fat usually adds... Call me a food snob if you want - because its true. Eating out, especially at natioanlly-owned restaurants and chains - is rarely healthy. Sometimes it's not avoidable, of course, but choosing Subway over McDonalds instead of making your own lunch on a regular basis isn't great for you..
