<< my friends who work there say DO NOT EAT THERE. they do nasty things, especially the one in sun lakes in chandler, az. but i eat there anyway because they have good meatball sandwiches. >>

Find anybody who has worked at a fast food joint and can honestly say that they were not filthy and I'll give you $10 :)
>>



i know this is unusual but my sister works at in and out and she says its totally clean and good and she eats there all the time, but again i know it is about the only clean fast food place around.
>>



I used to work at Subway and I honestly saw nothing wrong with the place. There's no way I'd recommend people not to eat there and I still do. Probably the cleanest place I've ever seen and no grease. :)

I agree. Subway is one of my favorite places to eat. Italian BMT on Italian bread.... nothing like it.

Dammit man use them! I remember in the gold old days when instead of 8 stamps you'd need only 6 for a 6 incher and you didn't even have to buy a drink either.

I think i'mg oing now to get one bye bye

They've come a long way recently with the new bread and new sandwiches and stuff but after my first visit to Quiznos, I haven't been back.

Man. You guys are such Subway slackers!!!


My friends and I went there every day during my senior year of high school for lunch. We were on a first name basis with the people in there and a few of the other regular customers. Anyway, I'd get a footlong sandwich every Monday-Thursday and get a free sandwich on Friday. What a deal that was. The best thing about the whole deal was that at the end of the year, for our last day of school, the Subway employees gave us (me and my 2 friends) a free six foot party sub just for the hell of it. Man did we eat well that last day. I swear, I have never eaten so much sandwich before that day. Fear not though for none of the sandwich went to waste. The three of us polished that bad boy off right quick.


Ah Subway. Whatever would I do without you? :D

I used to be a Subway addict last summer when I worked full-time in UBC campus.

It was the best food I could find other than sushi, so I went after it everyday. There were 2 chains of Subway on the same campus (no idea why; they're 3 mins apart by walk) and all employees knew me well. They even guessed the kinds of sandwich I want for the day.:eek:

Now I'm sick of Subway. Can't stand it.

The guy today for the first time actually said hi. He always gave me knowing glances but this time it was a definite familiar "hi" not just the "hi" everyone gets :D:D:D

If you think too much of Subway is bad, then consider what I used to eat for lunch everyday. 4-for-$1 chili dogs(when I'm feeling "good", I'd spend $2 :Q), and 2 bottles of Dew. It took me a few years to shed the chili dog pounds. Since 1996 I've avoided hot dogs like the Black Plague.

Mmmm.... Schlotsky's. I'm from Texas and love it. There's none here in Chicago though. Funny thing though is that there's one in freakin' BERLIN, GERMANY! Right across the street from the Checkpoint Charlie museum. And it was PERFECT! Exactly like in the U.S. And also, it was the only restaurant I went to the whole time I was in Germany, where refills were free, and they had a nice, big vat of iced tea, with REAL ICE! The whole experience was totally surreal. Ice, Tea, Free Refills, Exactly the same food as in America, actually cheaper than in America, and mere yards away from where the Berlin Wall once stood. And we can't get one in Chicago. DAMN I wish they had them here.

Mmmm... Jimmy Johns. Good stuff. From Chicago. Not as good as Schlotsky's good.

Mmmm... Quizno's. I don't know if there's any here. Probably, but I haven't seen any.

I used to love Subway, but the one here in my neighborhood is nasty and even good Subways don't compare to Quizno's, Schlotsky's, or Jimmy John's.

My 4 cents on the fast-food sandwich chains :)

We have Schlotsky's down here in Champaign and Bloomington IL. I'm shocked there are none in Chicago.

I personally can't stand them, but that's me.
