This is basically how I interpreted it.

Hmmm

$12 foot long from subway?

Or $16 monster sub from Jersey Mike's that can be had for 2 meals....

Jersey Mike's it is.

I can buy a sub from the local co-op For $12, and it's three meals. A perfect pair to soup.

yea its changed over the years tho. I remember it was better in the early 00s or maybe just nostalgia.

Oh. I actually like it more now than it used to be. I remember it used to be a lot more dense (at least in the early 2010s, don't really recall earlier.)

@LeoRavus
Most predicted companies would raise their prices.

It trickles down to the consumer regardless if wages rise or not. So what's your point?

I wonder if there is any sort of data out there of the raise in prices over the years, as I feel like we'd be here at this point regardless, it's just corporations have something they can point to this time and blame rather than just doing it and hoping no one noticed last time.

i actually like subway's bread. D:

The smell of it actually makes me feel ill. I cant imagine eating it because the smell of it baking turns me off so much.

I would have to try and not breathe passing by the Subway at the entrance to my local Walmart. So glad when the Subway closed.

"We have to raise prices in order to pay for higher wages" is corporate for "Blame the peons for our greed and ignore how much profit we make nickle and diming you all".

Restaurants are still expensive as fuck despite being able to pay servers below minimum.

Subway fucking suck. They charge 3 bucks for a bag of chips that Walmart literally sells for 50 cents.

They sell cokes, which cost like 15 cents including the cup.

They sell shit cookies at 10000% markup.

They run their entire locations with 2 workers during lunch rush.

Fuck subway. We'd all be better off without it. At least other fast food tastes good. Subway tastes like shit and it's bad for you.
All fast food tastes like shit and is bad for you

I'm saying when certain wages double over a 3 year period you'd have to be brain dead to think greedy corporations won't adjust the prices accordingly. In a perfect world, they wouldn't. Increasing profits is their #1 priority.

Man, you're so close to identifying the actual issue.

Wages and prices skyrocketed since covid and never came back down. The wage hikes were to get people to actually work. At my former job they went from hiring grunts at close to minimum wage to $20 just to walk in the door. Local subway began hiring at $16 an hour in a rural town. Of course they're related.

but they actually arent. Its amazing what you find when you look at the financials themselves instead of drawing conclusions based on arbitrary price hikes

Yeah it was a bunch of bullshit. They tested cooked tuna which destroys DNA. They never tried to actually test raw tuna.

Neither.

I have 2 local sandwich places in my middle of nowhere south carolina town that completely blows jersery mike's, firehouse subs, jimmy john's, and especially subway completely out of the water in every single way (taste, sheer size, and most importantly price).

https://i.imgur.com/CJSf6hs.jpg
That sandwich is called the palmetto special...ham, turkey, salami, bologna, cappicola, pepperoni and cheese. I also added bacon to it, lol. Like 13 dollars, and its big enough to fill you up just eating half.

https://i.imgur.com/Qa1mPRL.jpg
That one is a turkey, bacon and cheese grinder from a local Italian spot. I also added mushrooms to it. 11.37

Never hurts to take a look at doordash, grub hub, uber eats etc. not to actually use those services but to discover local restaurants that you did not know existed. There is a 99 percent chance a local sandwich shop is going to be better than any chain in sandwich size and price.
