I think some people have gotten cynical, to the point that they see things in very simple terms - either healthy or unhealthy. It doesn't work that way for a lot of things.
McDonald's restaurants also have much higher penetration in Australia and New Zealand than they do into United Kingdom or other countries in Europe.
McDonald's has a difficult time in Mexico where the chain is often viewed as an assault on their culture. McDonald's are frequently picketed, although to be fair the culture does picket a lot.
Subway is generally healthy. The bread wouldn't be much different from most bread rolls and a bit of processed meat doesn't mean you're going to drop dead. There's loads of salad, and everything is optional anyway.

It's just the calories in the food. Subway involves either something very bland or something with more calories than your average McD's burger.
If I have to get subway, it'd be the vegie one only.
There are plenty of sandwich shops in Australia, which are just as fast & better product
I know its not good for me, but I'd rather have a meat pie, lamb shank pie.. yum. Or a hot dog.
Funny a friend from Sydney introduced me to NY hot dogs. All the years I lived in NY I refused to buy street food (Except water or a Coke). I meet Miss fancy Mosman girl at her suite at Waldorf and she walks to the first street vendor and buys a hot dog loaded. She ate at least 2-3 a day and got me to try my first NYC street vendor hot dog. It was good. Much better than Subway or Maccas or xxx... but a toss up between meat pie as best unhealthy food.
Thats why I like the veggie delite. No shiny ham BCC. I wear my rainbow on the inside. naw..
