Chipotle has a new vegan burrito? So what. Subway has a new vegan felafel. And sandwiches taste better than burritos. Period.

It's been available at select locations for years. Not sure why they've added it to some DC locations, but it may be for some regional reason rather than as a trial or prep for national rollout.

Just because theres a lot of them doesn't mean its good. All their sandwiches taste the same which falls into the "good enough" category for nearly all people. Other sandwich places taste better but they don't appeal to the lowest common denominator like Subway so they appeal only to certain people.

Subway is in walking distance from my office. I pretty much live off of it some weeks when I am too lazy to make lunch.

When you go to Quiznos, Firehouse, or even the local deli down the street and order one of their SPECIALTY SUBS which is designed in advanced to be made with certain ingredients they make the sandwich for you.

When you go to Subway and order one of their SPECIALTY SUBS which is again, designed in a corporate lab with specific ingredients already selected all they know to give you is the meat.

The Tuscan Chicken Melt is advertised as being "topped with a tangy balsamic vinaigrette". When I order one I shouldn't have to specifically tell them that I want the vinaigrette as specified and advertised and not mayonnaise and mustard.

because the stoned faggot will probably recommend mayonnaise, mustard, and avocado.

I realize there are certain ingredients, i.e. the vegetables, that the company leaves open but if I order a sandwich that's advertised as having something specific I shouldn't have to specifically ask for its inclusion. If I order a "sweet onion teriyaki" I want the sweet onion sauce. I don't mind if they ask me if I want it, but I shouldn't have to ask for it.

Then that person probably shouldn't have ordered a Tuscan Chicken Melt which states that the balsamic sauce is one of the ingredients.

No other sandwich chain seems to have the issue you imply is so significant. Does Subway specifically cater to illiterates or something?

>>4888566
>Kind of like, um, what's it called...oh yeah, every other fast food franchise in America?

No, because most fast-food franchises allow their franchisees to buy things like toilet paper and cleaning supplies outside of the corporation and offer competitive prices on such items. That's why Subway, Firehouse, etc. haven't been repeatedly sued by franchisees for their practices like Quiznos has.
