"Meat"ball.

Plus, anyplace that calls a hoagie a sub, is a nonstarter for me. I'm looking at you New Jersey.

A grinder is not a cold sandwich like a hoagie or a......grrrr......sub. A grinder is put in the oven. Kind of like quiznos if quiznos was good.

You would starve in a Boston area ‘sub’ shop if you asked for a grinder or hoagie. Sangwich is an acceptable alternative!

BIG difference to me is EVERY time I eat at Jersey Mike's I wake up at 3am dying of thirst and have to drink a full bottle of water Very high sodium content. Subway never bothered. Which is better Jersey Mikes but Subway is more healthy option.

However, I will point out that the Subway footlong is 50 percent larger than the Jersey Mike's regular size, which is only 8 inches long. Both cost about the same price. Is the Jersey Mike's sandwich really worth the same price for 50 percent less food?
They are both terrible. Publix is better and they should buy out Subway and rename it Pubway!
I also like Firehouse Subs but there are none close by….

It wasn't a filler, it was a dough conditioner chemical. They removed it from their recipe in 2014, ten years ago.

McDonald’s, Chick-fil-A, Wendy’s, White Castle, and Jack in the Box all used the chemical in their breads in 2014 and eventually removed it from their recipes as well.

I usually get the special of the week. 12 inch sub as low as $6.99. Plenty to share with another. Always fresh and the taste can't be beat.

Schlotzsky's? Sounds like a Russian disease. Like, "I ate that sandwich and now I've got the schlotskies". Ewww!

Crazy how combinations of letters bring thoughts and images to the mind isn't it?

Like - fdpaq = fud pack = something that would get me banned for vulgarity.
