The meme is correct.
Subway, not unlike Lil Caesars, is soooo good when you ain’t got some bitch in your ear telling you it’s trash.
I also actually do like Subway.
It’s it the best thing ever? No. But when I have the choice between McDonald’s, some bread bun with maybe a single slice of salad and subway, the choice is very clear. All their options come with good amounts of veggies, they had decent vegetarian options quite early, their cookies rock and they were one of the few offering free refills.
I dunno what the snobbism is always about. I love it when I need to wait for a train and Subway is an option.
I have negative feelings about subway because when Quiznos first started, their sandwiches were amazing but subway responded with the $5 footlong deal, after which Quiznos quality went down when they cut costs to compete.
And today Quiznos sucks if they even have a place open in the area and subway is still the same but certainly not offering footlongs for $5 anymore (and I question whether they were selling them at a loss even back in the 00s when they did it).
Plus subway had Jared, who was annoying even before his extra curricular activities came out.
At least Firehouse Subs are filling the niche Quiznos briefly filled now, which isn’t even subway’s niche, even if they both make submarine sandwiches.
Well, this was my perspective from Germany. We don’t have and never had a real competing chain. We have McDonald’s, Burger King, KFC as big fast food chains. So this is what they compete against here
