You can see what comes on subs by default. Click customize and it will tell you that subs like blt, club, and supreme all come with mayo by default.

Go to italian and hit customize and you can see it's the 1 sub that doesn't.

Repeating yourself still doesn't make you right.

"The authentic sub sandwich, served Mike’s Way with onions, lettuce, tomatoes, olive oil blend, red wine vinegar and spices"


or

"Northeast-style cold sub sandwiches sliced fresh in front of you. Prepared Mike's Way® with Onions, Lettuce, Tomatoes, Vinegar, Oil and Spices"

 
I think their Stubborn soda (from the fountain, not can or bottle) is the best commercially-available root beer on the market right now.

Okay? I guess my point is saying "Mike's Way" doesn't negate if they will/won't put mayo on it. If you order a club supreme, BLT, or club sandwich there - regardless of you saying Mike's Way - it will have Mayo on it unless you specifically say "No Mayo"

I have never, in my life, been to a sub shop that doesn't specifically ask for mayo first. Anyone that does that without asking me first is going to be making a new sandwich for me. It doesn't matter what the style of sandwich is, mayo is only ever a request/permission only thing.

Either you just aren't paying attention when you order sandwiches at these places, or you're making this up to defend yet another indefensible claim.

Did you know that both the CIA and KGB would always administer a Mayo Test for all new potential Recruits? "Hold the Mayo" was instant rejection, because they knew that Mayo belongs on Sandwiches and people who don't eat Mayo are untrustworthy.

Facts....

I think it was probably due to the mayo haters being more discerning, and unwilling to blindly follow orders, which is essential in a bureaucracy. So yes, that could be considered "untrustworthy", but in all the right ways ;^)

We know you can't admit you are wrong. No need to keep telling us you won't.
 
Every Jersey Mike's I've been to has a literal sign telling you what Mike's way is, and there is no mayo. Lettuce, tomato, onions, oil blend, vinegar, spices. Sure a couple sandwiches come with mayo on them but that's not Mike's way.

I always ask for Mike's way plus mayo, with extra onions, sometimes plus banana peppers.
 
well see, that's why I don't eat anything that is x__meat "salad" because it just means mayo mixed with some fucking meat.

mayo is the problem.

--and yeah, all of these dishes are actually made without mayo, properly. fucking without it, but lazy bitches with no palate don't know that. Cole Slaw? That is not made with Mayo. It just fucking isn't. "Cat Food salad?" I mean ...seriously, though, who eats tuna out of a can and thinks they're eating tuna anyway? that's already a problem.....

but back to mayo: remove it from earth. ALL the problems solved.

the end.

😀

Mayo is mostly just oil, eggs and vinegar. It has its place even if I'm not wanting it on an Italian sandwich. On a burger or steak sandwich I definitely want some mayo.

I had one with my sub yesterday, too much vanilla. Its not bad but not my favorite. This is my favorite right now.

your sandwich saved my life tonight, jersey mikes
he almost had his truck in me, what a fright
he nearly had me wrecked and burned
but now I'm hoagie-bound
hypnotized
sweet toppings whispered in my ear
you're a seven inch
and hearty bread is made to eat
you're full of meat, nom nom

Thats beautiful im adding that to my sig.

It definitely has its place. On a good italian sub you don't want mayo, but I'm talking like at a real italian deli like you find here in the NYC metro area. Jersey Mike's sandwiches are great, but their Italian sub is nothing like the real deal. So mayo is fine on anything at Jersey Mike's.
 
I don't know if this has already been said but are you sure it was JM's who saved your life that day? What would have happened if your wife had not eaten a late lunch that day and then not texted you about it? Perhaps you owe your wife a thank you?

As far as the great mayo debate goes because this is what ATOT does with threads like this. If you don't want mayo on your sub then you're a barbarian. It's the way God intended them to be so accept it.

We ate Jersey Mike's a couple of times over the past few months because they had a promotion for enough free points for a giant sub and I think free delivery through the app. Won't be eating there much otherwise because their prices are fucking stupid, and their food just isn't worth that. Don't get me wrong its solid sub (but nothing to lose your shit over like apparently ATOT does). Its definitely better than Firehouse which is similarly overpriced.

yeah, Jersey Mike's is horribly expensive, and they've been the most expensive as long as I can remember. I still prefer Potbelly overall, because their sandwiches are great and much cheaper for what you get...but I think Jersey Mike's is the best overall quality for chain shops; just not best value.
 
I can't afford Jersey Mike. I eat Publix subs. Same with fried chicken. I can't afford Popeyes so I eat Publix fried chicken.

Maybe if you just reduce your monthly Hermes purchases to 4 instead of 6 scarves, you could afford to eat non-grocery store food?

(granted, Publix has the best sandwiches and fried chicken of any grocery store that I've tried)

I spoil my wife rotten. Like past 2 weeks, I bought her Chanel compact wallet, 2 different Hermes Silk'In compact wallets, and Hermes Picotin Lock 18 bag. And today, FedEx delivered the Apple Watch Hermes Series 6 that I ordered for her.

For an Italian/ham based sub I like oil+vinegar, for roast beef/turkey based subs I like mayo, agree on one thing though, people making food need to pay the fuck attention. I've had McDonald's completely forget to pack a sandwich (only 3 total in order) and have to drive all the way back, bacon cheeseburgers with zero bacon, pizza not completely cooked. It's to the point now where I will hold up the entire drive threw to check my order first. Jersey Mikes does have fantastic roast beef though, the best around.

One of the local fish shacks went to Stubborn last year. I haven't tried their root beer, but every other one of their sodas was terrible.

I wish Jersey Mike's delivered. I'm only about 75 miles from the closest store...
 
OMG, an Hermes Apple Watch? Could there not be a douchier product on the planet?

😀
haha. I ordered one for myself too. 😀

Mine is delayed and going to ship later next month. I was little hesitant to order it because I knew I would receive crap from you guys. But I liked the look of the watch and Hermes makes the best leather. And while $1,500 is expensive for Apple Watch, it's the least expensive Hermes watch and one of the cheapest Hermes item you can buy. So it's a bargain when viewed from Hermes customer perspective and expensive from Apple customer perspective. I justified the purchase because I'm going to use this watch daily for the next 2-3 years. So I should get my money's worth in use and personal enjoyment.
