Subway

When I say Subway sucks, I mean its quality seems to have fallen off significantly over the past 5ish years at least near me. The bread is now super dry and the produce doesn't taste fresh either

Sure, but the attached image's sandwich sucking is mostly down to the customer's choices not the ingredient quality

I can't judge. I like sliced Tomato and a double order of Olives on my footlong Meatball.

With other things right?

Nope just a 12 inch long ball of meat with sliced tomatoes and double olives.

Do you like olive pizxa?

My favorite pizza is olive and mushroom with garlic parmesian sauce.

I know. I'm weird.

That's not weird. I always have olives and mushrooms on my pizza.

My favorite pizza is hard to get in the United States. It's corn and onions.

Aw, I remember coworkers had gotten corn and onion pizzas as a treat the first time I visited my remote office in Taipei (from Pizza Hut). I believe there were also shrimp pizzas, I felt very special 😊

But yes, alas it seems rare here in the US!

I would almost guarantee that's like a staple of pizza places out in the Midwest.

Funny, my first time trying it was while visiting the Middle East

That just sounds like a very Midwestern US thing. Corn and root vegetables? That's all the way Midwestern.

I haven't seen anything like that on a pizza since I moved to the midwest. They do seem obsessed with pickles though.

Double olives at Subway now get you like three of them. Employees be acting like they deduct each olive directly out of their paycheck.

I don't see how that's similar, it would only be applicable if you ordered a footling with ONLY tomatoes and olives, nothing else.

I mean.. what she is doing wrong is going to subway.

Does Lemmy have hailcorporate yet? Really seems like an ideal fit around here.

Fuck Subway, and fuck your dumbass sandwich. Which you obviously didn’t get a picture of from “the worker.”

fuck r/hailcorporate. at first I joined it thinking it was going to be about stealth ads. oh my god, you can't even allude to a brand in a critical manner before some asshole accuses you of advertising. even bigger cancer than r/theyknew

Seriously. That sub made me so angry I had to cool off with a refreshing Pepsi.

Fuck Pepsi. Kids today know the only drink that gets you turnt is an ice cold Coors Light. Dont be mid kids, drink Coors

He better go wash his hands again after handling his phone.

Nah, it's cool. Can't you see he's wearing a thin plastic glove on the other hand?

And holding the glove he was wearing on the hand he's holding the phone with?

Fuck subway.

What's wrong with Subway? Is this another chain I have to avoid now?

I don't know if anything really bad. It's expensive and low quality, but that's about it.

Out of all the mainstream fast food places, it's probably my top pick. Especially if you manage to get their buy one get one free footlong deals.

Their meat and veggies come in big soup cans. It's legit gross it just seems less like it because there's veggies involved.

They absolutely don't come in cans, they always came in bags when I worked there

Except tomatoes, onions, bell peppers, and avocadoes, we did those fresh cut every morning

Ours came in big subway branded cans around 2001.

We never fresh cut our veggies, ever.

Probably a regional supplier/franchise thing. I worked in one during college and we cut tomatoes, bell peppers, cucumbers.

There's a John Oliver episode about it. Been a while since I've seen it, but the jist of it was how scummy they are with their franchisees. To the point where it reminded me of time shares.

Should have just gotten a sandwich with a pretty large pickle in it.

I really like sandwich with a pretty large pickle in it. One of my faves.

Give me a pickle sandwich with a little cheese and mustard and I could die happy.

If I could have a very long pickle to cover my entire sandwich, I think I'd die happy. Just one long cucumber pickled and sliced long ways.

I mean if that’s what you like, and they specifically ask you what you want on it… I’m sure subway employees have put together far worse science projects than that.

Wheres the sauce you fucking demon, like even the worst sauce they have is better than no sauce. Id take a sauce i hate over no sauce... and its toasted so that "bread" is dry af... Put some sauce on and be fucking normal.

They're not at that part yet. Clearly in the veggie stage.

The sauce stage is after the veggie stage, I bet he asked what sauce they want, they said no sauce and that's how we got here.

The other day. The guy behind me ordered a pizza sub with just sauce and cheese. There was a pizza place across the street but whatever I guess

He would probably go to the pizza place and order a pizza with just sauce and cheese. What’s wrong with that? I think it’s called a cheese pizza.

Well that's what I mean if you just want a cheese pizza just go across the street

That's another sandwich I would still vote for president before Trump.

I wouldn't eat it and I would barely even wipe my ass with it and with it covered in shit I'd still vote for it over trump

Say what you will but this would be a very cool "this is how we met" story that they could tell their kids down the line

Damn you could at least spread out the veggies a bit more before taking a picture to shame the person ordering this abomination

No, you should stop at this point and handle your phone, your car keys, your wallet, fish around in your pocket and belly button lint, scratch your asshole, then continue to handle food.

That's an easy way to get reprimanded and have your bosses hands tied by corporate.

Sir,,, this is a shitpost and your comment is very logical

True. I just swear I've seen a story about something similar happening.

This is just an ad for subway

I would think that an ad for something would paint that thing in a favorable light, not make it look gross and weird and unappealing.

Gross and unappealing is the new hot ad strategy! They're going for the "I only eat there ironically."

Should have just ordered a salad somewhere but I like the ingredients, everything bar the bread and cheese.
