idunno why but that unflattering sandwich looks really good to me rn

>>19413579
It's fresh, thin-sliced pig brick and provalone on fresh bread. It aint bad. Just not $15 good.

but i already paid when i ordered

>>19413572
>needing Cheetos along with the sub
you fat piece of shit

>>19413591
Hows life in your shithole country going? Eating ze bugs yet?

>>19413587
Did I fucking stutter?

>>19413593
Yes the United States is at a crossroads right now. I enjoy being less heavy than you though.

>>19413572
If it's an Italian it's an acceptable price. Have you never made a proper Italian sub at home? Just the prosciutto and gabagool are over $1/ounce even for the garbage you get at Walmart. A proper Italian sub will run you around $20 in ingredients made at home if you want a good one. If you're paying that much for a tuna sub or a cheesesteak though you're probably retarded.

>>19413596
i didn't order a gun

>>19413602
lots of small dicks do though

>>19413598
That $15 is just for the ham and cheese. The Italian is just about he only sandwich that benefits from provolone cheese. Another reason why I hate Jersey Mikes, because they use it as their main cheese. But an Italian is my go-to sammich. I get one from Publix all the time.

>>19413572
For less than the cost of a Jersey Mike’s sub and a Coke, you can buy a loaf of bread and some fairly decent baloney which you will enjoy half as much but will be cheap as shit

>>19413586
that's a shame but at least it's decent food, could be worse

>>19413621
>fairly decent baloney
those three words have never ever been chanted ever

>>19413632
fried baloney is kino

>>19413618
If you're going to Jersey mikes for anything but an Italian you're doing it wrong. Objectively.

>>19413658
kino but creepy

>>19413621
I'm actually making grilled bologna tonight. Any tips? Chips or no chips?

>>19413691
Yes. Stop being less trashy I guess.

>>19413699
Toast the bread in the pan or nah?

>>19413602

>>19413602
you ordered a 9mm bullet pizza. the only difference is they might be on your pizza, or they might be in the gn

>>19413579
I fucking love sandwiches bros.

>>19413835
I moved from the North American Cradle of Sanwichization (New England) to a Australia which is a sandwich desert, at least in terms of subs/grinders/hoagies (literally nothing exists except Subway and as shitty as Subway is Australian Subway is even worse), and sandwiches in general are not popular and not good. Shitload of burger places though but fuck burgers.

>>19413856
>I moved from the North American Cradle of Sanwichization (New England) to a Australia which is a sandwich desert,
That's putting it mildly. They call all sandwiches "burgers" because they can't pronounce "sandwich" due to their abhorrent accents.

>>19413835
I am not supposed to eat them anymore but I got a veal Parm sub today

>>19413856
what is your opinion on the full aussie burger with beets and toppings and stuff? Im a mutt but I would like to try an aussie burger. depending on how the meat is treated

>>19413907
How can you have any pudding if you don't treat your meat?

>>19413913
i dont get it

>>19413923
Stand still laddie.

>>19413923
lets keep your sex life out of this pal

>>19413907
I don't much care for eggs on my burgers but beetroot is fucking amazing on a burger and should be more popular. The rest is fairly standard in terms of lettuce, pickles, etc. A lot of places don't use melty burger cheese singles (those literally only started to exist in this country in the last 10 years or so), so a lot of places use other cheeses or even a slice of tasty cheese (cheddar). Which is nice.

>>19413572
Jersey Mikes is decent, they slice the meat with a deli slicer from a big piece of meat right when they make the sandwich but I do miss the prices from the prepandemic times. Back in the day, it was $15 for the giant size and the regular was a little over half the cost. The economy is really fucked man, a sandwich shouldn't cost that much as good as Jersey Mikes is

>>19413572
If I'm paying $15 it's for forty ounces of rum. I'll stick to eating dirt and grass

>>19413618
>they use it as their main cheese
ironically they don't even let you put it on a cheesesteak. if you ask for provolone on the cheesesteak instead of white american they say no. they won't even upcharge you or anything just flat out no.

>>19413691
> chips
Those are crisps mate.

>>19413572
That’s a fucking joke- I live in a pretty normal sized city (not NY or LA) and a sando+ chips w/ no drink comes out to like $18.79, or around $21.99 w/ a drink.
I fucking hate everything dudes.
I’ve lived through the permanent decline of the US dollar.
>inb4 inflation is constant
Yeah, I know it is, but this is pretty fucking bad.
Now I just get angry when I’m grocery shopping and I don’t eat out at all anymore.

Side note can anyone point me to a board where I can just shitpost about my life and talk to other anons?

>>19413866
veal parm sandwich? fuck you.

>>19414743
Silly bong, don’t you know to keep quiet while the first world countries are posting?

>>19414743
not that anon but just wanted to vent my frustration about this. I'm born and bred American but have lived in Aus just shy of 18 years now and especially in the last 10 years I have found so many Australianisms eroding and it perturbs me. In 2005 nobody said "chips" unless they were talking about french fried potatoes, and yes crispy potato snacks were always "crisps". Now I swear most Aussies talk American and call them fries and chips. Also in 2005 you couldn't find anyone wearing a fucking ballcap, ever. Now there's a goddamn Lids in the local shopping centre.

I know this is first world annoyance but I feel sad seeing all this go and what's going to disappear next? Pretty soon the pub will be a bar and not a pub or hotel and there'll be underpaid single mother waitresses desperate for ttips. I don't want it bros, I don't want that at all.

>>19414757
I’m this faggot and I would like to add that I do fuck with pubsubs.
After every shitty chain jacked their prices astronomically at the very same time the US dollar chose to bend over backwards and fuck it’s own ass, pubsubs always held it down.
Same prices (I get the Italian or chicken tender sub when they’re on sale), and I don’t mind physically ordering a sando to pay a literal 1/3 of the cost of a shitty chain sub.
So I guess I got that going for me.

>>19413572
This was $20

>>19414800
that is an expensive treat but I must say that looks amazing. Meth is also expensive but people buy it over and over again because life is short.

>>19414802
It is good. I go once a month or so.

>>19413579
infected gut brain

>>19414865
what are you saying

>>19413632
guess i found me a new ritualistic chant, thanks fellas

>>19413586
the sandwich is only 9.99 nobody forced you to buy cheetos and a drink. not to imply that the sandwich is worth 10 dollars either though.

>>19415255
not him but see
>>19414757
That anon described it pretty well. Where the fuck do you live that a sandwich is ACTUALLY $9.99?
Just the sando is $12+ literally anywhere m80. Economy’s fucked.

For 15 dollars you could buy bread loaf, sliced meat, tomatoes, onion, lettuce. Maybe have enough for salted air (chips). Forgo to goyjuice.

>>19415314
the jersey mikes is in a town of 1000 in northeast Pennsylvania

>>19414743
since your best "crisps" maker went out of business due to poor sales you no longer have a right to tell others what to call them

>>19415628
I literally never heard of this brand thoughever

East coasties rain about Jersey Mike's like it's the second coming of Christ. They of course have no taste buds.

>>19415430
Ya’ll got junkies everywhere up there or nah

>>19413572
I just get a giant and eat the other half later.

>>19415691
sort of. like 3 people within 100 meters of my house ODd in the last 5 years.

>>19413572
I just spent $120 to get Buffalo Wild Wings delivered to me lol

New Jersey sucks, why would you name your restaurant after a landfill?

>>19413691
>Any tips?
you could stop being fat

>>19415628
>https://inews.co.uk/inews-lifestyle/food-and-drink/brannigans-crisps-discontinued-pub-classic-britons-mourning-657852

I've never even heard of them. I assume our most popular Crisps are walkers

>>19415989
>I just spent $120 to get Buffalo Wild Wings delivered to me lol
Damn. How much did the food cost?
$120 in delivery fees and tips is mad crazy fr fr

>>19413621
Damn, this post just convinced me to go buy some baloney and white bread
Any brand recommendations?

>>19413572
Why don't you make it yourself for less than a quarter?

>>19413572
They get you with the chips and soda.

>>19415314
Subway will send out coupons once in a while that include 3 footlongs for $18.
I'm sure they have coupons on the app.

>>19416083
80 for food
20 for fees
20 for tip

>>19413572
>>19415255
>>19414757
>>19415398
If you want to make your own sandwich or sub, it's probably just as expensive.
Kroger and Safeway have Hillshire meats for $6/9oz and their store brand ham for $6/lb. Even Walmart sells store brand sliced ham for $4.50/lb.
I guess you could buy Budding, FUD, or S Bar for a bit cheaper.

>>19416202
and you can make 3 or 4 sandwiches out of that

>>19416209
I'm thinking of thick sandwiches like these that are $20. They don't seem to post the weight of the sandwich or meat, but I'm sure it's a lot.

>>19413572
just had mikes for the first time not impressed desu

>>19414763
>shopping centre
It's "center". Get it right. Did it ever occur to you that you retards hanging out on American websites consuming American media and products might have consequences? Just stay in your little shithole corners and do whatever it is you do if you don't want to become discount Americans. Fuck.

>>19416262
That sammich looks like she's ready to settle down.

>>19416446
I'm not having trouble with the HOW anon, I just was expressing regret about it.

>>19416737
Nobody cares. Start a blog.

>>19416737
I feel you man. Being the oldest of millennials I got to live my youth in a world without the internet. The thing that hurts the most for me is the loss of nationwide cultural touchstones. Back in the 80s, 90s pop culture was a joint experience. There's no such thing as someone that lived through the 80s that hasn't seen "Aliens" and "Terminator" or heard/seen Michael Jacksons "Thriller". Now that everyone has become insular in their own digital echo chambers, while we're all still surrounded by pop culture, it's customized to each person's taste so it's no longer shared. Yes, you can likely find someone to talk about "Stranger Things" with, but they're also equally likely to have never even heard of it. I know this is essentially moaning about vapid consumerism, but it was a legitimately important part of America. Now if there's any bit of culture/news/opinions that someone disagrees with they just tune it out/don't go to that site/block that person. Everyone, including little old ladies, has become a cult member of their own design. Memes are all that remain now of anyone's pop culture.

>>19416765
lol

>>19413790
It's been disproved to be linked to heart disease and high blood pressure. You've been denying yourself the pleasures of a fuckload of salt because some asshole who didn't know anything spouted nonsense.

>>19416765
What a shitshow that game was, virtually unplayable past a certain point if you didn't have the relevant Nintendo Power issue. Lesson learned: ALWAYS RENT FIRST even if you have to wait a few weeks, especially because buying games was proportionally more expensive back then. Killer soundtrack though, classic.

>>19416765
The flip side is that once you got past the mainstream, niche cultures existed, but were INCREDIBLY more insular without online communities. I do understand your point that it was important to have more cohesion/intersection between culture and physical/local communities. That's a loss. I would further add that the spread of online communities is responsible for harmful and mentally ill ideologies gaining undue prominence, due to an illusion of greater representation and thus "support". But if you were somewhere in the middle, just a little weird, a little outside the mainstream without being toxic, then the virtual world was indeed the boon that was promised.

>>19413660
Their grilled steak and cheese is solid. But all the toppings getting wilted and gross in the summer humidity gross me out

>>19416108
My three favorite bolognas
1. Wunderbar (beef)
2. Boar’s Head
3. Sahlen’s

Jersey mikes's just for flyover and west coasters

>>19413593
>Eating ze bugs yet?

anon you really need to stop relying on phrases like this to fight all your battles.

>>19413856
>>19413864
Australia’s favorite sandwich is a sausage served on a slice of bread with ketchup and sometimes onions. They don’t really have any other sandwiches so they never use the word “sandwich” they just say “burger” because they do have some decent hamburgers

This on a baguette with red onion and grey mustard

>>19413593
Yes lot's of them, so delicious

>>19416765
>Memes are all that remain

>>19417214
What is a meme? A miserable little pile of secrets.

>>19415871
Do you agree that it’s crazy that that answer would’ve put you in the top 10 shittiest cities in the world circa 2005, but now that’s an acceptable norm?
Roxies did a motherfucking number on this country.

>>19417134
>>19417200
Boar's Head has the best "junk" meat products. Their bologna and hotdogs are both top-tier.

>>19417209
That's a lobster roll. You can't have a po boy without breaded & fried seafood or chicken.

>>19417482
You have no idea what you're talking about. Roast beef is the most traditional of all po boys and boiled shrimp po' boys can be had at any shop in the French quarter that sells po boys.

>>19417510
That's a roast beef sandwich and a shrimp roll respectively. Stop deluding the meaning of proper terms, anon.

>>19417510
po boys are for poors. how is beef food for poors? real poors eat ze bugs (shrimpadizzles), because they own nothing and are happy, like slaves

>>19417510
>google po boy
>nothing but fried meats
Fuck off with your "elevated" cuisine, redditor. Just because you are in denial that it's fundamentally good tasting poverty food and poor people like fried stuff and sammiches, doesn't mean you're right.

>>19417522
>Fuck off with your "elevated" cuisine, redditor. Just because you are in denial that it's fundamentally good tasting poverty food and poor people like fried stuff and sammiches, doesn't mean you're right.
Literally nothing you wrote proves that anything you said was right and that anything he said was wrong.

Come on down to the French quarter. Hurricanes and roast beef po boys on me. Get you laid.

I'm not eating at a gay bar and I don't care about your experimental fusion sandwiches, fag. Leave it to your kind to have to swoop in just because it's got "boy" in the name.

>>19417558
>flyover
samefag is same. Also, you're desperately grasping at straws. We have great cuban sandwiches in Florida and pretty decent shrimp/lobster/crab rolls (which is what you're posting). Even beef rolls.

>>19417285
I was poor most of my life and lived in the lowest income neighborhoods so I think living near 2 or 3 drug addicts is one of the nicest neighborhoods I've ever lived in. I also dont even live in a city. I live in a Borough of like 300 and it's a 12 minute drive at 55 mph just to reach the nearest town of 1000.

Despite living in essentially the middle of nowhere I can still walk to 2 gas stations, a restaurant, a meat market, 2 banks, a post office, and occasionally a food truck in the summer. Its a typical rust belt place that used to be a genuine town but now is mostly residential with sparse businesses dotting the area.

It's not a big deal but it does peen me a bit. For some reason I don't know why, everyone started saying "search it up" instead of "look it up". Saying "search it up" instead of look it up or looking something up just makes less sense and sounds better than "searching it up".

>>19416176
Might as well just do pickup that's insane. 1/3 of the bill solely for service.

The drinks and chips are what kill me. There is no reason inflation should have hit them the way they did. It's 100% Obama "legacy" planned price increases. We let them do this shit to cigarette manufacturers and now they're doing it to "junk" food. Chips, sodas and candies will be ridiculously expensive and behind the counters in a few years.

I’m all for a sin tax on junk food, honestly.
I just wish we’d actually put the accrued resources towards public infrastructure (because I know we’ll never get socialized healthcare, haha).

your quotations around “junk” food is fucking sending my sides lol

How much do you weigh?

>>19419536
What country are you from? (They never want to say)

Don't get chips and a drink like a dumb ass.

It's Joever

Americans need high food prices (see: normal prices in every other developed nation) to discourage their overconsumption

Makes sense. Sounds like something I would do.
