I never understood why they bother with the fake grill marks on the chicken.
Subway - "Those aren't grill marks. They're flavor stripes."
I never understood this either, when you grill chicken it has a specific taste. When I think of subway chicken, I think of the times I boiled chicken breasts to feed to my dog. A flavor so bland you don't believe it's actually chicken.
What is the reverse of the baker's dozen....a subway footlong.

Makes sense. The chicken tastes watered down.

Of hundreds and hundreds of environmental chemicals and food stuffs that were looked at in that study, only one was not regarded as carcinogenic. Even their air we breath is slightly carcinogenic.
Nobody is going to stop me eating chorizo and jamon.

I don't really have a problem with this, if I'm ordering chicken on my sandwhich I want low fat protein, soy fits that bill. Sounds like a non-problem to me.
Lol, acting like they didn't know.
I mean, you can tell the shit is fake as fuck if you take the time to actually examine it.
Yeah, it's definitely not a problem to mislead your customers into eating a different product than the one you are advertising.

Just switch all the way to soy already.
To some here, killing more animals is preferrable to "false advertising." Interesting moral scale, that.

I assume subway in the us is trash vonsidering eveyone giving it shit. It's pretty great here in Sweden. McDonalds is still trash here though.
Subway has been garbage for a while. It is crazy how effective marketing is that people think they are a healthy alternative in terms of fast food, now it seems like their chicken is just soy filler. By the time you add any cheese, sauce, things like mayo your healthy sub is probably upwards of 700-1100 calories.
Jimmy Johns, you guys.
Much better bread. Fresh-sliced, high-quality meat. Tuna Salad made from scratch daily. Fresh cut veggies. Simple, delicious.
I used to work at one for like a year and I can tell you these things from experience. And you are getting an 8-inch sandwhich for $5, the quality trumps the quantity.
Plus, Jimmy pickles, cookies and chips are all really good.

Maybe Cory Booker was right about not importing drugs from Canada. If their chicken isn't made of chicken then their pills are probably just sugar pills!

Ask me about the moon landing or the temperature at which jet fuel burns. You may be surprised at what you learn.
If we dont keep the animal population in check they'll eat all the vegetation.

The other 50% is made from: I can't believe its not chicken

That's not true at all. The ingredients list is organized from greatest ingredient to least ingredient, but being close to each other isn't indicative of being similar in total proportions.
For example, if you had this ingredient list:
Chicken, water, salt
It could be 97% chicken, 2% water, and 1% salt... Or 49% chicken, 48% water, and 3% salt. What you're describing is scenario #2, but scenario #1 could also be true.

yankees go home. build the wall.
Chicken is also low fat protein. I'd rather have chicken when I order chicken.
I liked subway back when cut the bread into a wedge, so that was the 90s.
Fucking lol.
Their allergen information menu has all the chicken listed as including the following for soybeans.
*Only contains highly refined oil from this ingredient. FDA exempts labeling refined oils as allergens since they can be safely consumed by food-allergic individuals.
I dunno if i'd believe that upwards of 50% of an oven roasted chicken is just soybean oil. Seems shady as fuck.

It was the FoodBabe and her moronic shitposting.
I stopped eating Sibway when they got rid of the $5 footlong. Two meals out of it.

Why is it legal to advertise a meat as said meat if it is less than 50% meat? How does that work?
What did he mean by this?

People still go to Subway after they protected Jared?
I don't think it is unless you specifically label with the percentages.
Usually instead of calling it "Chicken" it would be called "Chicken Product" or something.

The rare occasion I eat at Subway, this is what I get and I still like them.
Bread isn't nearly as good as it used to be and the cheese tastes really processed, but load on the veggies and sauce and it's not terrible.

It's a sandwich that contains chicken still, I guess. Not selling the chicken by itself is probably enough of a distinction that they can label it the way they do.
