And they only snap a pic when someone does run one.
To get back on topic, I hate Subway because they always want me to specify the ingredients on the sandwich. I just want to order the sandwich and have it made to a standard recipe.
(Same reason I won’t go to Chipotle.)
You’ve been able to do that for a couple of years now.
I love MY liver. Everybody else’s van just stay right where they belong, detoxifying the bloodstream and secreting a digestive chemical now and then.
And when I say everybody I mean EVERYBODY, including the cows and pigs and chickens.
Aw, naw.
As mentioned, you can order predetermined sandwiches … but there’s nothing on that list I’d want ezzactly as-is.
I’m okay with Subway once in a while (hell, there’s one right across the street, and I friggin’ work at a locally-renowned pizza joint) but I like a “weird” sandwich according to my personal preferences & am grateful to be able to order precisely what my weirdo self wants.
Turkey with just spinach & onion, if you must know.
Sometimes cold, sometimes toasted with cheese.
If cold, mayo. If hot, the sweet onion sauce.
I think I tried the garlic aioli and IIRC was not unhappy with it.
Thanks, O.P. for the inspiration! I’ll throw the one by my work a lil’ bizness this weekend.
I also hate all the choices and the need to specify ingredients.
The last time I went to Subway some months ago I went to meet some friends and I was bouncing all over the place in a state of minor confusion.
One of my friends looked at me in amazement and commented, “How the hell do you survive in a foreign country?”
I see you, and I raise you a canned whole burger.
I’ve read that Sheetz has remarkable food for a gas station/convenience store.
WHY? Why does this even EXIST? What drugs were involved?
At bottom right, you can see a web address ending in “.de” so my theory is that, like so many things German, it is involved in some bizarre kinky shit.
Their food is actually really good and they have quite a variety as well.
I saw some when I was in NC on vacation in 2023, but never did stop. Now I kind of regret that!
now we’re getting into the spreadable meats debate, which is a whole other story. But I’m with you on the Braunschweiger, that stuff is tasty
I generally get the American processed version, like Oscar Meyer, and so the one time I had a chance to eat the real German stuff I braced myself because I knew it wasn’t going to be the same.
It actually wasn’t much different except it was so much better.
As said, Subway has “standard” sandwiches now, that they call the “Subway Series”. I vaguely remember reading someplace that this was tied to their goal of adding drive-thru locations. Their original business model of letting the customer choose each ingredient doesn’t work well for a drive-thru.
And you mentioned not wanting to go to Chipotle because they use the same model. I think you’ll also want to avoid Mod Pizza because they do the same thing but for small personal pizzas.
agreed! we are lucky to have a very well stocked European food import store relatively close by where I can get the real stuff, as well as a nice assortment of bratwurst, weisswurst, and various other bad for your health processed sausages.
I want to check that place out.
I present Cougar Gold.
My wife went to WSU and insists that it’s the best. I’ve never tried it.
Had another Great Canadian Club today for lunch. So good.
That on Ozempic, my stomach gets weirdly dodgy about foods, and I can find that they really, really don’t sit well. For whatever reason, that burger just tasted GOOD and I was able to wolf the whole thing down.
I did, of course, get a Holiday pie. I mean, who can turn down colored sprinkles? The filling, however, was vaguely custard-like. I think apple would have been better.
