because i dont like spending 9 bucks on a sub and get nothing but a paper thin slice of meat and a mouth full of bread, there needs to be a balance of the two. JJ does it because bread is cheap, meat expensive so cut back on meat, charge more for bread = profit. i understand that and why i feel like im getting ripped off.

But we already know you're wrong because 1) a JJ sandwich is 6 bucks, and 2) the bread to meat ratio is SIGNIFICANTLY better than Subway. America has been duped by the $5 (or more) footlong. A footlong of sandwich doesn't mean shit when it's all bread. Or keep quoting me while deleting the actual point I'm making. How to win an internet argument 101.
 
I've got Jimmy John's, Firehouse, and Which Wich 5 minutes from the house. I like all three, but go to Jimmy John's more often because they have a drive through and I'm lazy. Unfortunately, the nearest Potbelly is ~20 minutes away.
 
Haven't been to a firehouse subs before.

My order (excluding local places, which are at the top obviously):

1. Quiznos (Honey Bacon Club is ridiculous)
2. Jersey Mikes / Potbelly / JJ
3. Sandwich I found on the ground
4. Subway

I reordered your list for better accuracy.
(I would put Firehouse pretty much at Subway level. same sandwiches, a bit more expensive)

He has to validate his NFL linebacker legs (lol) and his crappy paycheck.

If I can get out of lunch for $10 I am happy.

Nothing beats a home made sandwich.

I have had many crappy home made sandwiches. People think they have it down. Same with grilling, BBQing, cooking and baking.

Local delis are everywhere, the franchise market caters to the road warrior that just wants what they are used to.

That said when I am on the road I am searching up the best restaurant/brewery type of place. Fuck a sub on the road.

Many can't spend that dough so they want to make sure their money is well spent rather than a wasted meal.
 
I have no interest in paying close to $10 bucks for a mediocre sandwich. All franchise sub shops have disgusting or skimped meats. Subways veggie delight or BLT suits me just fine.
 
My wife likes the engineer and I like the smokehouse beef and cheddar brisket. I get their turkey bacon ranch sub when I want something different from there.

My favorite sub shop is the Lenny's by my house.
