I changed my mind. But I would if I did.
A friend of mine, way back in high school, worked at Long John Silvers for months. Once she quit, she couldn’t even drive by the place without the smell making her ill. We had to take alternate roads to avoid the place.
Subway. Making sandwiches junk food too.
For a Wonder Woman Action Figure/Toy, I just brave the smell.
I prefer Togo’s Avacado and Turkey…ummm good!
Also, Fazoli’s Submarinos are better toasted subs than Quiznos.

I have been having the opposite experience working at [a coffee chain named after a hockey player]. It is insanely clean there. The lady who works at the soup/sandwich station is always taking temp readings on our chili and the “fills” for sandwiches. From what I have seen, she follows procedure to the T. Whoever is put on washroom duty cleans the washrooms every hour, on the hour. We wipe tables down with sanitizer after clearing them. The baking area is always tidy. We really do brew a fresh pot of coffee every 20 minutes (we mark the times on the pots and we throw them out when their time is up, even if they’re still full). I should know, I’ve spent the past two days brewing coffee. Everyone I’ve worked with washes their hands when switching tasks. The manager and owner are eagle-eyed when it comes to checking on whether everyone is following procedures for safe food handling. Ever wonder why we are so careful about using wax paper when we retrieve your donut/tea biscuit/muffin from the case? We are cashiers and money is filthy. Hell, sometimes we wash our hands “just because”.
I feel 100% fine about how clean that place is. I would eat there.
I worked there, as well as D’Angelo’s during my senior year in HS. I didn’t notice any heinous practices, and occasionally someone would tip us with weed. Very impressive at that time in my life!
I still prefer D’Angelo’s especially for the steak subs, (#9), which are actually grilled… At Subway the “steak” is an indistinct, tendony grey mass that comes precooked with onions and peppers already mixed in. Nuke it, and into the steam table it goes. Perhaps that’s heinous.
The worst is the frikkin’ wallpaper. I got sooo tired of looking at that.

Parmesan Oregano bread-that’s it!
Love it.
And the Subways by us always smell good-like Italian dressing and freshly baked bread.
Band name!
Curses! Beaten to the band name!
Oh well, off to make myself a sandwich. (Dry Salami and mustard, btw)
I feel the same way about Burger King. Worked at one for about a month when I was 16; almost four years later, I still can’t walk into one without my eyes watering and my gag reflex ready and waiting in case I’m dumb enough to order something.
Hijack complete, carry on. 
I got a turkey sandwich at Subway once that was pretty much past it’s expiration date, so I took it back.
Me: “This turkey tastes spoiled.”
Subway Guy: “It tastes spoiled?”
I thought that was pretty much English I was speaking.
This thread inspired me to go to Subway last night for my fave BBQ chicken sandwich, loaded with every thing but cukes, and jalapenos. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm-mmmmmmmmm! It was like overstuffed with chicken! And the sandwich artists are very nice, thought the one guy does keep trying to upsell the combo.
What bother me is that I will probably never again see the word “Mephistopholian” used in a sentence during my lifetime.
Clay Henry looks pretty pissed about being on that diet. I think he’s about to snap.
This thread made me go get a Submarina sandwich for lunch, which I’m eating right now.
And it’s good.
That is all.

I love turkey subs from Subway. I’ve never gotten sick there and I have the prissiest, squeamish stomach in the entire world. My first job was at a Captain D’s and we kept that place gleaming. The manager made us scrub every square inch of the place every shift.
I have been cheating on Subway lately with my new love - Schlotzky’s Asian Almond Chicken Wrap. Yummy!
Rhyme: Awful lotta peein’.
Haiku:
Devil sandwiches
Dash all hope of winter’s end
It’s Mephistophelean
(I should get some extra points for including a seasonal allusion as found in the best classical haiku)
