Love the sprouts at Jimmy John's!

I also like Jimmy John's and Jersey Mike's better than Subway. I think it is generally agreed on that both of those chains have higher quality meat and ingredients than Subway does.

If I had to pick one, however, I would choose Jersey Mike's. My wife would pick Jimmy John's.

Subway is the low tier sub sandwich place. I very rarely eat at Subway. I only eat there sometimes if the Italian BMT is on sale. Which I think it's usually not.

Not too many sub chains where I am. But Subway by far my favorite. Just dont know how to make a good sandwich if you dislike Subway. All options are available so its on you. Granted the roast beef can be hit or miss.

Yup, people just don't know what they like on their sandwiches. Subway has the best everything and if you don't think it's good, then you just don't know how to make a good sandwich.

Wait...that's not how that works...

Idk. I feel like I get more choice at Subway to add and change stuff in my sub. Where at the other places, there's not much you can do to change the sub to fit your taste... Like only having cold subs or not 1 cheese...

Subway may have more cheeses, but none of them are very good. They just have bottom tier ingredients in general. The veggies are by far the worst, but the cheeses are all bad too and the only meats that are passable are the BMT ones. Their hot meats like the chicken and meatballs are just awful. Bread isn't terrible I guess, but it's got a weird texture and the other chains still beat it on bread too.

I do eat veggies. Just not on my subs. It does good well with it. And I drink water, but only when there's nothing else. I rather drink something that taste good.

As for the cheeses, like pizza, I'm not a snob when it comes to that. As long as it taste like the cheese, I'm usually pretty good...

Because their bread and ingredients are higher quality than Subway.

Also the main thing I hate about subway is that the menu doesnt just say what is supposed to go on the sandwiches. I hate having to guess what is supposed to go on the sandwich to get the ideal one listed on the menu.

You could ask. And certain ones do have the ingredients in the menu under the sub. It's small, but there at some chains...

Yes it does. Subway has a lot of cheese choices. If you don't like any of them, it means one of two things:

1: You hate cheese.
2: You're a cheese snob.

Being the worst doesn't mean bad, though. But that's if it is the worst... I've been to restaurant where they had the best ingredients. Then go to a different restaurant of the same chain and it's horrible. Maybe your Subways, or the ones you have been to have been mostly crap. Mine isn't bad, though...

Someone who refuses to debase themselves by eating ordinary grocery cheese--about the level of Subway cheese--is a cheese snob. Refusing to eat American cheese specifically, I can let that slide. Refusing to eat basic cheese, period... sorry. Cheese snob.

I never said anything about not eating there. I'll eat Subway (mostly a convenience/price thing), but I can still think it sucks. And I don't know what you're smoking about grocery store cheese, most of it is fine and better than Subway.

Don't think I've been to Blimpie, but I've heard other people say they suck, so you might be right. Subway is definitely at the bottom of what I've had, which is most of the national chains.

cheese is goddamn cheese

if it's provolone, it's provolone. it's going to taste like provolone it's going to melt like provolone it's going to have the texture of provolone and why is it going to do that? because it's provolone

replace provolone with any and all cheeses

I got your back on this one. Subway has the worse quality ingredients of any sub place I've ever been to. You're not being a snob for calling out a place with low quality ingredients for having low quality ingredients. Which Subway has.

And yes, cheese can be low quality, just like any other food.

It seems like any local sub shop or even a subway has better food but there are like 2 Jimmy John's locations within a mile of where I work, with 2 sub shops and a Subway. The Jimmy John's seems to be the more popular place.

My small town of < 5,000 population has 3 Subways, and I'd have to travel pretty far to see a Jimmy John's.

The closest Subway is shit. Always running out of bread. I think the good one is in Walmart.

I taste some difference between brand of cheeses, but most cheeses from anywhere taste fine to me... so, I don't know. Anyway, it doesn't really matter. I m'd rather go to subway to get a sub I want rather than settle for something else that might be probably ok. And also cold... Jimmy John's is still at the bottom of my list. Jersey Mike's like the middle. And Sunway the top. I haven't had Firehouse, but I might someday soon. I heard it's pretty good.

Subway makes the best bread. I'd buy it if they sold it stores. But I don't care much for the actual selection of subs available.
