I always use the comment section for any other customizations. I don’t like a lot of lettuce on cold subs, especially if I’m not going to eat it all the first day. Gets kind of wilted the 2nd or 3rd day.
We only have sub chains in my neighborhood. Panera, Subway, Jersey Mike’s. I’d love to have an independent one nearby. I’ve gotten some decent sandwiches at an Italian place in central Scottsdale, but it’s way out of my normal stomping grounds. You should be glad you’ve got other good options! |

I tried Jersey Mike's yesterday. The sub was good, although I was disappointed that, when ordering online, customization options were minimal. Likewise, while good, the value was lacking. I can get a sub of close to the same quality, in a larger size, for a similar price, at a local pizza place.

Its true, Jersey Mike's isn't cheap but, I think they're better quality than other sandwich chain alternatives. The staff seem friendlier too.

Why gross? Ever heard of a refrigerator? You eat half one day, and the rest a day or two or three later. Why be wasteful and throw it away?
In particular, I find their cold subs to still taste great even a few days later. About the only ones that I would have issue with are those with guac on them. Those can generally only last a few hours even with the acidic component in them. After that the colouring and taste often go. |

Personally I don't see anything wrong with this. If the pricing was linear, fine. But often it isn't, so as Jaimito, you put half in the fridge for later. When you want it, take it out and depending on type, maybe reheat it.

That’s why I only get a little lettuce on my cold subs as I find it degrades pretty quickly. I find a hot cheesesteak warms up well, too.

I can save some for the next day but even then it gets all soggy. Maybe you get yours dry but I like it "mike's way" (tomato, lettuce, oil & vinegar) and also mayo.

Maybe it's just me. But standard ordering for me is to have less sauce, no tomatoes or spinach (whole leaves tend to hold pockets of liquid). Edges do come out of the fridge dried... and the internals tend to be a little damp, but still serviceable. I suspect I keep the fridge too cold as when I put rice in there, it definitely dries up and needs a bit of water when I reheat...

I used to get my typical sub with red wine vinegar, but now I just get them dry and add what I want at home. Sometimes it is vinegar of some sort (occasionally balsamic), sometimes it's mustard or hot sauce, and often I just don't add anything.
-J. That said, I have been trying different sauces with dim sum when I make it. Definitely an acquired taste for some of them... |

I usually buy two footlong subs if I ever go to Subway, and half of one sub is a meal for me. So I'll be eating on them for 2-3 days at the minimum. However I wouldn't eat one after three days, especially if it is poultry based, as mine often are.

From today's NumLock News
A U.S. District Court judge has said that Subway will indeed have to go to court over the proposed class-action lawsuit alleging that it deceived consumers about their tuna. The sandwich shop has been on a blistering PR counteroffensive amid claims from a plaintiff that DNA tests carried out by UCLA’s Barber Lab purportedly found 19 out of 20 samples of Subway’s tuna contained no detectable tuna DNA; while all 20 had chicken DNA, 11 had pork DNA and seven had cattle DNA. Subway argued that the presence of non-tuna DNA was because of eggs in mayonnaise and possible cross-contact, and that the suit should be thrown out, though the judge decided to let this one play out.
