I wish the nearest Subway would close and a Jersey Mikes would appear there.
Yeah, never had Jersey Mike’s until they moved near a mall a few miles away. It could be called their Italian, but they have quite a few that just have a slight variation in meats. Its the option with the most meats on it. I was surprised that my 9 year old loves it.
I ate a lot of Subway sandwiches while at my limited college dorm experience, in the mid 80’s. I thought they were great, then. Anytime I’ve eaten Subway in the last decade, I was pretty disappointed. I’m sure there are other good subs out there, but it’s just not in my normal Mexican/Italian/Sushi/CFA/Pizza places that I go to.
