Try Jimmy Johns, where the meats actually all taste different rather than alike, as do the toppings. To me everything at Subway tastes bland and has a "refrigerator-flavor"...

LOL! "A refrigerator-flavor"? That's about silly!

I think Subway is gross, too. I'm not big on cold meat sandwiches, but if I'm gonna eat one, it's coming from Jimmy John's, not Subway.

last week i went to Subway to take advantage of the special (anytober) the key word being any.

I asked for meatball, sorry sir we ran out of meatball, OK I'll take a Philly Cheese Steak, sorry sir that's considered a premium sub and is not a $5 sub.

Huh?

I settled on a steak and cheese, double meat. and it was good.

Not really, it's as if things aren't covered. Flavors transfer in the refrigerator when uncovered.

I agree.....that described Subway ingredients quite well.

I will admit to eating at all three places. But Subway, is pretty low on my list. I would rather not eat if Subway is my only choice.

I gave up on Subway several years ago. Between them trying to serve me tuna fish that was a week past its date and had turned brown, and the "roast beef" that's grey with a rainbow sheen, ugh. The bread used to have a nice texture, now it is just mush. I started going to my local supermarket (Publix) and getting a sub from the deli. Much better bread, Boar's head meats and cheeses, fresh toppings, and friendly staff. I've only been back to Subway once (with a co-worker, his choice) and it was just as bad as I remembered it. Blech.

I noticed when I was in high school that the smell of our vacuum-packed, plasticized fetal pigs that were used in human anatomy & physiology for dissection purposes closely resembled the scent that hits you when you walk into Subway. That pretty much did it for me.

The Subways here in my area are all A-1 excellent in every way. (My area is near West Palm Beach, Florida)
