Your thoughts on Subway restaurants?


I stopped eating their subs awhile ago. I find it makes my stomach feel weird, and I feel bad & gross afterwards. Maybe it's because I'm in my 30s now, and my metabolism isn't what it used to be when I was younger?

Years ago I thought Subway was good, taking price into consideration. But it was always my least favorite sandwich chain. Two main problems--their Italian bread is mediocre, and pre-sliced meat. Places that slice the meat right there in front of you just tastes better.

With so many better choices out there, why bother.

And the tomato never looks fresh .

I still like them once in a while. I like the chicken teriyaki, the ham&cheese with everything they got, and the meatball sub.
I think the reason I still like them is because I remember eating these as kid in jr high. So it's a nostalgia thing.

Their chicken looks gross. It looks rubber-like. I've never had it though. I hate they microwave it though.

Yeah, I try not to think about it too much. Just enjoy the taste.

These days they give you an option of having your sandwich toasted or not.

The whole concept of Subway was you'd get a quick sandwich at a way lower cost of other sandwich restaurants - so I'd grab it to save a few bucks. At some point they raised their prices enough that the cost of their sandwiches was inching closer to other sandwich places, yet the quality didn't change. I can't remember the last time I ate there...

Stopped going years ago.

The sandwiches suck, they put stuff through the broiler to disguise how stale the bread is, and their meatless options suck. I make better sandwiches at home.

And their mascot turned out to be a pedo.

I've only ever had them once. It was 1994 (I only know that because I remember which school trip it was on). Got it to go. Back at the hotel I took a bite and the lettuce was brown and slimy. I will never forget how that tasted. I've never set foot in a Subway again.

I love their sandwiches :P My favorites are the Cold Cut Combo and the Italian B.M.T. My dad likes the Philly Cheese-steak (with jalapeƱos), my brother likes the meatball sandwiches, and mom likes the BLT's.
