Who cares LOL and I work there. Old news BTW. I actually had a guy last year who said if he had his measuring tape with him he would have measured the sub. He was not joking. I believe it's 11 inches.
This doesn't supprize me. They are known to be "cheap" and stingy at Subway. Cripes, they measure and weigh EVERYTHING!! Suppose somebody got 1/16th of an ounce too much meat, cheese.....etc
Oh dear GOD!!
Bankruptcy!
You've obviously never run a low margin food based business before.
I'm not a big Subway fan FYI I buy from local delis.
Also I believe there is an option to buy extra meat and cheese.
Maybe the founder's foot is only 11 inches long. Or hey - maybe he wears a size 9, but is being generous by making his foot-long subs LONGER than his feet. The ads don't say 12-inch subs. They say foot-long. MY foot is only 9.25 inches long, from heel to big toe. I just measured it. Be glad they don't specify whose foot, and accept 11 inches of bread with a smile.
Additionally, they're not skimping on the fillings - they don't measure those by "how much will fit on a 12-foot sub." They measure them by weight. Except the extra toppings like lettuce and tomato and banana peppers - they'll give you as much as they can stuff onto the sub, if you want them to, no extra charge.
And John, you're the one who posted this back in 2013, not the news wire you got the lawsuit article from.

The last time I went they didnt. They were skimpy on the lettuce, didn't even cover the entire sandwich, and when I asked for more I was told it would be 50 cents for each topping I wanted extra of. 50 cents for extra lettuce?! I can a whole head of lettuce for that price.

50 cents extra for lettuce??? Not in NY or at least not in the 2 locations my boss owns. That's ludicrous. Extra meat and cheese is a charge but not extra veggies.
