The Subway sub shop gripe thread

Does Subway serve ‘Braaaaains’?

I have no complaint with Subway. They entered Thailand 10 or 15 years ago. Some of them are open 24 hours, handy for when I’m out wandering in the wee hours. Love the foot-long Steak and Cheese with extra meat and extra cheese. Mmmmm.

Thank you, Subway.

McDonald’s killed the local hamburger joint. They still exist, but they are few and far between.

But, for some reason. Subway has NOT killed the local sub shop. Almost every town has at least a couple of local, independent, shops that produce a waaaay better sandwich.

I will only eat at Subway if I’m with someone who insists on it for mysterious reasons.

…I don’t quite get it. Doesn’t this sound exactly like the McDonalds/Burger joint situation? Unless you live somewhere with A LOT of sub places. I feel like it’s pretty equal.

I never miss a chance to gripe about Subway. I think its the nastiest sandwiches I’ve ever had and every time I eat there I get diarrhea. First of all, they are completley inept when it comes to making a turkey sandwhich with ranch and mayo. They always want to put the ranch on AFTER toasting the sandwich. Wtf? Are you just going to put the ranch on cold while the sandwich is toasted? You’ve got to be kidding me. Sauces/Dressings go on FIRST, everyone knows that. Also the ranch tastes like crap. Don’t know why, but it’s nasty. They’re attempt at toasting their sandwiches is pathetic. They come out barely warmed up and pretty much still cold. It’s all pathetic. They have nothing on Quiznos, the best sandwiches on this planet.

I’ve eaten at Quiznos before (the first time was when I visited my nephew in Cedar Rapids, IA in 2009), and I thought they were pretty good, but I personally favor Firehouse Subs, because there, it comes hot and stays hot. Even when you get it to go, they pack it in such a manner as to where it stays hot and doesn’t lose any of the flavor. Firehouse therefore gets my personal two thumbs up.
