Wow. Domino’s vs. Subway. Add Taco Bell in there, and you have my personal fast food hell.
I like their pastrami and their seafood salad but that’s about it. I won’t make a special trip to get one, though. If I want a sub and have both Subway and Quizno’s nearby, I’m more likely to go to Quizno’s.
You know you can tell them what glop you don’t want on your sub, right? And that you can watch them to make sure they don’t put anything on that you don’t want?
Be careful what you wish for; Subway just might bring back Jared or Jon Lovitz for more commercials.
I really like their Brooklyn style pizza. You don’t see many “really thin, without being -crunchy-” crust options out there.
Jared I don’t mind particularly. He at least says substantively different things. Domino’s is just using several different stupid analogies to communicate the results of the study.
And to those saying I should watch less TV, bear in mind that I saw these several commercials over the process of about a month.
Who the fuck are you people, Jr. Officers of the Surgeon General? Taste and unhealthy don’t necessarily go hand in hand. I’d rather eat 4 Domino’s subs a month than a Subway everyday.
Note that my OP completely ignored the taste and nutritional value of each chain. That said, I think you’re making a rather stupid comparison. Very few people want to eat from the same place every day for a month, no matter what quality food.
What about Jared? If you would follow Jared, you would eat “healthily” at Subway everyday! Joke.
What a Capitalist Pig, Fascist, ploy- to center so called, “Healthy and dieting” synonymns around a Corporate Propaganda legitimizing a sub shop as a Health Food!!
You have to be a hell of a homogenized cynic to ridiculous food delusions to believe that the subway diet is even healthy or safe.
Considering the line that’s always there when I go… no. Not at all. There are very few fast food places I’ll eat and Subway tops the list. Six-inch turkey sandwich with cookies and a lemonade. YUM.
Damn, what did Subway ever do to you?
You’re like my evil doppleganger–I was coming in here to say that Dominos’ thin crust with bacon is the ambrosia of pizzas.
Too late. 
Back in the day, Dominos used to be the only local pizza that 1) I could order from online, 2) had jalapenos as a topping, and 3) Hi, Opal.
Eventually my location changed, as did my taste in 'za. Haven’t ordered from them in years. So, I hear about the sammiches, and… Well, I loves me some sammiches, so I figured I’d order locally- I’d seen a dominos a few blocks away from my new digs. I checked, and they didn’t have online order. Disapointing. I get something else.
A few weeks later I figure I’ll try calling them.
The store doesn’t answer.
It wasn’t until about 3 weeks ago that I learned that the store has been closed for months, but the automatic lights (including the ‘open’ sign) are still functioning. Who the heck is paying the electric bill?
But I digress. I’ve not had the sammiches, would’ve liked to try them… But the media blitz? Yeah. Obnoxious.
I love Domino’s Pizza. I assume it’s basically the same over here (England) as it is over there. The Texas BBQ with a Double Decadence base… drools. I only have it about once every couple of months though. They do make the sandwiches but I’ve never seen one advertised. We only have one Domino’s in this town and it’s on a commercial retail park in the middle of nowhere, not really ideal for workers to pop to for lunch.
I used to buy from a small pizza place which offered curried mixed vegetables as a topping. Yum! They closed down though. We have lots and lots of eastern European takeaways that offer pizza as an afterthought, it’s usually crap.
I also like Subways the few times I’ve been in there. There are 3 (THREE) within 5 minutes walk from my work, one is almost always empty and it’s on the way to the bus station. The meatball sub with cheese and jalapenos is delicious. I don’t eat it any more though. No more bad food until I lose some weight, then I get to put it on again, yay!)
The comparison wasn’t exactly a cheesy grilled sandwich vs a healthful Subway option. It was
"hot, oven baked sandwich from Domino’s or a cold or toasted sandwich from
Subway…
Two sandwich varieties from each company were sampled – Philly Cheese Steak
and Italian."
So, “oven-baked” cheesesteak may be equivalent to “toasted” cheesesteak ??

The fact that worse pizza may exist elsewhere doesn’t make Domino’s pizza good.
The company ought to campaign heavily against the War on Drugs, because if marijuana is ever fully eradicated Domino’s will surely fold.
Actually, I saw a documentary on Jared and his subway weightloss plan. He went from eating almost 10,000 calories a day to eating 3 subs and chips, bringing him in at just about 2,000 calories a day. If anyone on the planet cut their caloric intake by 80% of course they would lose weight no matter what they were eating! It wasn’t the magic of subway that made him lose weight, it was the magic of portion control.
Prison pizza is better? whoda thunk it ?
OP, you’re not related to this guy are you?
Kenneth Noid
In commercials for Domino’s Pizza, the chain’s employees wage a never ending battle against the Noid, a gremlin who delays deliveries and carries a gun that can turn a pizza ice cold. Many viewers are amused by the Noid, Domino’s says, but one of them took the advertising campaign personally. Last week Kenneth Noid, 22, walked into a Domino’s Pizza shop in Chamblee, Ga., with a .357 Magnum revolver and took two employees hostage. When police arrived, he demanded $100,000 in cash, a getaway car and a copy of The Widow’s Son, a 1985 novel about secret societies in an 18th century Parisian prison.
All Noid got was the pizza he ordered. After a five-hour siege, the two employees slipped away and Noid gave himself up. According to police, Noid has “psychological problems” and believes that he has an “ongoing dispute with Tom Monaghan,” the head of the Detroit-based Domino’s chain.
Wait, I don’t like Domino’s and I’m the evil one?
