That's what she said. Yah, had to go there!

But hey maybe they meant foot long as in they are as long someone whose foot is 11 inches long. Blame the lawyers I say.

LOL..they are all doing it. That lb can of coffee is not a lb anymore although it looks the same.
Everything is smaller yet the price is the same as the previously larger size.

I hope they win and Subway has to change to "almost foot long sandwich".
They get away with too much and it's time people called them out for what they are doing.

What ???? I guess their "hour" deal is about those reading glasses you can pick up in any store
