Would you eat...

That "good sandwich culture" is not universal across the US either. I have a lot of food choices, but the only sandwich in walking distance of my girlfriend's house is Subway.

I'm the only one who voted #1?

I love sauce, dressing, mustard, etc.

I guess I'm lucky to live in Southern California, where it seems that a Jersey Mike's is never more than 10 minutes away.

Not that Jersey Mike's is great either, but it's about as good as I think it's possible for a national chain to be, their italian sub never fails to satisfy.

What dose everyone order at subway ?

I only ever get the BMT or Classic chicken with all the salads. I find that the salad adds a lot to the sandwich, and the pickled Jalapenos add a nice bit of heat. Kind of a waste not to add salads.
Apparently BMT are subways best seller, three types of delicious pork !

If it were two sauces, I'd be able to scape one off and leave the other. You are just plain wrong.

If you has some of my homemade honey mustard, you wouldn't want to.

I'm in southern California. To the best of my knowledge there is no Jersey Mike's in Palmdale anywhere. The guy who owns the Subway franchise has been working from a policy of saturation for a long time, and there is literally a Subway on every street corner. I suspect that most commercial developments have a "no competing sandwich chain" agreement with him.

Spicy Italian with Swiss on Italian herb and cheese for me. Light lettuce (if you don't say light they put on way too much), bell pepper, banana peppers, onion, pickles and olives. Usually brown mustard, oil and vinegar, pepper no salt...but I must admit I was inspired by the kid today and had brown mustard AND ranch.

The first mistake was going to a Subway.

Variety. Pizza? Mexican fast food? Hamburger place? Better grade Mexican place? All available, most with a couple choices in walking distance and on the limited cash I had in pocket...but Subway is the only sandwich choice and I just felt like having a sandwich.

I realize that living in the urban northeast I am blessed with a plethora of delicious local options for food, but I have a hard time imagining that there are that many places in America where you can't just go to your local deli for a sandwich.

On the rare occasion that I ate a yoga mat sandwich at the sandwich store that hires pedophile spokespersons, I would only put spicy mustard, oil and vinegar and salt and pepper and usually mayo on the "sandwich" thing being dutifully created for me. These are standard sandwich fare condiments.

My friend told me that in America there are like no Chinese places. Meanwhile where Iam have an endless choice for Asian, Chinese, Korean, Japanese, Vietnamese food. For sandwiches there is only Vietnamese roll or Subway.
Subway is the cheapest for a quick eat though, a footlong is practically two meals.

I mean, Safeway sells better sandwiches than Subway. The problem is they are ubiquitous and quite literally everywhere--there are more Subways than McDonalds.

Your friend is a dirty rotten liar. We invented the fortune cookie for crying out loud. Basically the western "chinese restaurant" menu was developed in America (by Chinese people).

Unless your friend means there are no genuine Chinese chinese restaurants. Which is true. 99% of our Chinese restaurants are the General Tso/Beef & Broccoli type Chinese restaurant, which is not "authentic" Chinese food.

General Tso is NOT Chinese food.
I consider them an insult to Chinese food, you Americans disgust me

Yeah, but regular old delis are also everywhere too.

And American Chinese food rocks. As does "authentic" Chinese food. (American Chinese food is also authentic)

It was Subway, calling it a good sandwich is a bit of a stretch regardless of how the kid ruined it.

Bread still warm from the oven, tasty meat, fresh veggies, oh the horror!

Here in Sydney we dont have any kind of good sandwich culture that the US has. The only sandwich options where I work are Subway or Vietnamese pork roll or Donna kebab. And $7aud for a footlong is a good value for two quick meals.

Was $10 for most footlongs last I checked, which was a week ago when I bought one, which I did because I don't understand this idea that Subway apparently sucks. Maybe the American version sucks, but I don't know what's meant to be so bad about the ones I've been to. It's pretty basic ingredients, so I don't know at what stage they're apparently doing something wrong. It's not like they're using powdered meat or choko instead of carrot. For about the same price you can get a Sumo Salad wrap, which is also great and has better options (e.g. chicken, bacon & avocado), but is quite a bit smaller.

Related, I had a panini the other day that was both the best and most expensive I've bought. $19, but worth it.

I don't like mustard, vinegar or ketchup, I'm not a fan of mayonnaise or added salt and I point-blank will not eat anything spicy, so no, not only would I pass up something that disgusting, I'd probably pass on the sauces altogether.

 

[Kyriakos]

I thought this was going to be more like 'would you eat <soylent green if you knew it was people>' hypotheticals

 

[Farm Boy]

I might eat all of that, if I were seven.

How many made what some people called suicides? Go to the self serve drink station and pour a little bit of everything into one cup. How many of us didn't do that, or similar, as children?

... as children?

There's a subway very close to my work, so I eat there sometimes.. My go to sub is a 6 inch coldcut combo on flatbread, with spinach, tomatoes, cucumbers, and extra onion. For sauces I go with mayo and a dab of sub sauce. (Subway employees don't understand the meaning of the word "a bit", so you have to be creative)

I never get mustard from them, because I'm a mustard snob and their mustard ain't mustard.
