Subway is the only gluten free option fast food in UK. It’s the only place I can reliably eat at and I’ve yet to have a bad experience, staff goes above and beyond to not cross contaminate their food.
A footlong sub (not a meal) is around 13€ here.
I can get a full ass restaurant meal for that
I know this is a shitpost but I’ll never pass an opportunity to shit on subway.
It’s the shit quality ingredients and how they keep changing everything.
I use to eat subway all the time. Then they changed the only fuckin sauce I ever got, then removed it completely. I was fine with other sauces but then they started fucking with them too. This along with the ever increasing drop in overall quality of ingredients I can’t even eat half a 6" without feeling sick.
Signed - Someone who used to fucking love subway ranting about how it’s been completely ruined.
It’s crazy to me how wildly varying Subways can be, all the Subways in my area are fairly decent and I like them.
I particularly like Subway because of the choice of veggies, I literally say “all veggies” at the veggies part and I know damn well I’m not even going to keep a fraction of the veggies at home. I can’t even keep lettuce good for very long before it goes nasty.
Where are you from? I was in Subway after a long break (a few years) and the only thing that changed was that they added vegan options, everything was as fresh and tasty as I remembered it. And expensive. Eastern EU here.
Eastern EU
Yeah that would be why. I live in the states.
If all you have to choose from is shit, you’ll always end up with a shit sandwich.
Don’t buy it then😂
I definitely won’t.
Happy days
I wish I didn’t have to tell the expert artisanal sandwich craftsman how to make the sandwich step by step. “I’d like a number 5”
-What bread? “Whatever’s in the picture for number 5”
-Toasted? “Whatever’s in the picture for number 5”
-What meat? “Whatever’s in the picture for number 5”
-What veggies? “Whatever’s in the picture for number 5”
-What cheese? “Whatever’s in the picture for number 5”
-What sauce? “Whatever’s in the picture for number 5”
Why bother selling meals if each component requires a conversation. The fucking meal option should skip that bulshit unless initially ordered as such. ‘I’d like a number 5 with everything different than advertised’
The meme is correct.
Subway, not unlike Lil Caesars, is soooo good when you ain’t got some bitch in your ear telling you it’s trash.
I don’t recall ordering a piece of plastic in my sandwich on my last trip there years ago. Got it anyway. The blank stare I got when I told the worker said “I have no idea why you care that your sandwich contains plastic” lol
You fool, that was the Plastic Ticket. Due to inflation, some franchises may not have the Golden ones. You could’ve redeemed that for a free tour of Jared Fogle’s house
I was a sandwich artist; the best sandwiches you truly have to make yourself.
My favorite nowadays is a tuna on flat bread, double extra bacon, American cheese, lettuce, spinach, cucumber, tomato, red onion, light on the sweet onion sauce, and a little mayo.
I worked at a Pizza Hut in highscool and the first months of college. I’d never eat there as a civilian but some of the shit were (the workers) made was downright delectable.
There’s a kind of “unofficial” pizza hut menu that employees share around with all kinds of crazy stuff that you could never get just by customizing it online. The “twice-baked Hut Favorite meatball supreme” was my favorite and it took like 20 minutes to make all-in-all. I miss having that metabolism
Can someone explain this, this post doesn’t make sense to me
That smell tho
And at the end of the day it’s just a sandwich, made with fresh ingredients, how can that be even bad?
“Fresh ingredients” is a questionable statement
I cannot speak for all Subways over the world but here where I’m located, and according to my own experience, they seem to be fresh.
I’ve gotten horrendously sick from Subway before. In one particular case, a bout of food poisoning that put me in the hospital.
That honestly sucks, I hope you haven’t had any more negative experiences like that since then (at Subway or elsewhere), nowadays I take home cooking over everything, it’s a lot of work tho.
Thanks, I don’t eat fast food anymore, and opt to cook at home as well. It is more work, but generally I think it’s much healthier and cheaper.
Remember the subway fake chicken controversy?
I am pretty sure that the test was badly done and the whole 50% thing was the result of shitty sampling. Yes, they have soy protein additives but fake chicken is more expensive than real chicken and the tests were never confirmed by a second lab.
A lot of fast food does end up having meat that is significantly lower than 100% meat just by doing seasoning and preservatives. Taco Bell for example has a crazy amount spices and filler ratio which is partially due to the fact that meat volume is reduced as the moisture is cooked out. They are still excessive though.
Subway gets picked on the most both due to how it has the most locations (or did at one point) and it brags about the food quality. Nobody picks on KFC for how fatty their fried chicken is because we know it is fatty. Subway played themselves.
The ingredients are ok. It’s the bread. It smells weird, tastes awful and nowadays I can’t even walk past their stores without holding my nose.
Really? I can understand that. IDK how different Subway is in America (or any other country for that matter) but in here I don’t see any issue with their bread, or at least I haven’t had any so far.
As someone who likes a good subway every once in a while, there are definitely a few things you should refrain from ordering. Chicken comes to mind.
Also, the recipe for bread they use in the US is different from many other countries because in those other countries the American version can’t legally be called bread. (I think it had to do with the sugar content)
Subway also has a history of being pretty hostile towards anyone who speaks against their “healthy fast food” narrative. I mentioned chicken above, well they sued CBC for reporting on a study that found Subway chicken was only about 50% chicken DNA, with the rest being soy protein.
They were also sued a couple years back by someone claiming their tuna wasn’t really tuna, but that case was dismissed by the plaintiff, citing pregnancy complications making it difficult to continue.
I think me not eating meat anymore has a lot to do with the way I perceive Subway, I remember trying their meatball sandwich a couple of times and not liking it, it tasted weird to me but I know people who liked it so I didn’t pay much attention to it. Nowadays I just order a sandwich stuffed with as many vegetables as possible, or their soy protein one.
3 for 3 today for seeing memes previously voiced by Gianni and finding the Gianni link in the comments lol
