1 foot long, a large bag of chips, a couple of chocolate cookies, and a gallon of fizzy drink!
Whats the problem?

A number of the Villages' area Subways went under during the Corona Virus 19 shut downs.

We used to stop and buy one when traveling and just eat in our car to save time.

Than we found out there were many better options out there and Subway lost its attraction.

I've been eating Subway subs since - pretty much forever. Their HQ is in Milford CT, their first store is in Bridgeport, opened in 1965, their first franchise store is in Wallingford, opened in 1975. I've lived between those locations most of my life. I don't know of anyone from Connecticut who hasn't ever had one or doesn't consider it a normal option when it's take-out night.

Default UnSubs

I've never had a Subway sub that looks good as the one in the ad or on the poster. So much for truth in advertising.

The truth is, someone DID really make that perfect sandwich, and that perfect sandwich really CAN be made. It's 100% true.

You can always ask them to make it look just like that picture, if you really want them to do it. They're pretty accommodating people, as long as there's no line behind you.

A Subway is like a bread sandwich. Not much better. Jersey Mike's is an improvement. Best is Publix with "extra meat & cheese."

I am sure that all knows, as with most youtube videos, this is actually a spoof and is from a satire website called onion. So often we see on here folks actually quoting ONION....which is something scary.

Well spotted!
Fooled me, but now I looked again, it does look very 'spoofy!'

We will go to a free standing Subway store.
In our opinion and experience, the ones that are located in gas stops or other shared facilities just do not measure up on cleanliness and care.
