Why is Quiznos so underrated?

Judging by their state of bankruptcy, I'd say they're perfectly rated.

Too expensive when the competition lowballs you with the $5 foot long deal for years. You also need to take into account American incomes have stagnated for decades so cheap wins over good many times in America. That's why newly opened five guys are closing.

Quiznos advertized a lot back in the day, they had those stupid mascots and the slogan "mmmm, toasty!"

100 times better than Subway's

>> No.11421250

>>11420875
They had a brief, brief period of superiority. When their largest size black angus peppercorn (i think they were roughly 10 inch subs) was $8 like 10 years ago, they were godlike. Now, I think that same sub was like $14 lmao

The smallest subs were like $5ish for something like a cold cut/melt, and I remember getting a filling meal there became cost-prohibitive for me quickly.

Their breakfast subs are dry as fuck. At least they do have coffee refill. Still more expensive than Subway.

I liked subway in the 90's into the early 2000's. At first I didn't care for Quizno's but eventually I came to really like it until it closed. Afterwards I went to subway a couple of times and it wasn't as good as Quizno's and it wasn't as good as I remembered.

They're probably one of the more expensive fast food places. Defiantly most expensive of the sandwich shops.

I also heard they had really shotty business practices, like not letting the franchised out places locally source lettuce and tomatoes and forcing them to buy from the main company.

Memes just weren't a powerful enough force back then and so nobody understood the commercials.

They talked people into opening franchises and then overcharged them for supplies to run them into the ground. It was more profitable to pocket the startup costs and fuck over everyone who opened a franchise than to keep them all running. That's why for a while, there were a ton of quiznos opening up right by each other and now there's hardly any.

the pajeets who owned the qiznos in my town closed it down years ago and turned it into the 4th subway in 20 miles. I think I remember them saying quiznos made them buy paper towels from their one supplier.

for some reason the Quizno's logo just screams 80s to me, it looks so dated, thats why i never eat there.

The logo looks like something from the early to mid 2000's. Definitely not 80's.
