As for Subway corporate, they have perfected screwing the franchisee for decades. And now, in this culture, where every person under 30 is a self-proclaimed "foodie", I have no idea how this franchise survives long-term. Quality-wise, they just aren't even vaguely competitive. They were only competitive because my generation would eat the shite because we didn't know any better in 1997.



they survive on people who just want a quick sandwich (not a burger) and can't afford to be foodies

Your average subway owner that is from and loves Delhi ain't very woke.


When I started reading this thread this is the first thing that came to my mind.

There was a stretch during Covid that the subway next to my office was the only place I could get a quick lunch to take back to the office so I was eating there 1-2x per week. It’s average food but it’s relatively fresh and I get my veggies on my ham. It’s owned by a super nice Indian woman and she must have worked 70 hours per week. It just closed. I can promise that she didn’t GAF about Rapinoes cause - she’s just trying to live the American dream and raise her kids

That’s sad to hear. The only Subway owners I know are in BR and they’re Indian also.

don’t understand advertisers logic on choosing someone like that. Why use someone polarizing to sell your product?
polarizing has stopping power. Here we are discussing Subway on a TD thread.

Subway is pretty disgusting. She’s perfect for pushing that shite food on people. She’s scum.

They need to replace her with Carli Lloyd (who is the better player anyways). She’s likable and isn’t a piece of shite like Rapinoe.


Only one USWNT player didn’t kneel ahead of Olympic soccer match

Star forward, Carli Lloyd has consistently found herself in the minority among the team on the issue of kneeling. US players knelt as the national anthem played ahead of various scrimmages in 2020 and earlier this year. But Lloyd never joined her teammates, opting to stand with her hand on her heart.

At the Tokyo Olympics, all the US players stood during the anthem. Their kneeling came afterward, just before kickoff. Still, Lloyd stood.

Then one thing that gets to me about this bitch is that she doesn't understand basic economics "women athletes should be paid like men athletes". Yeah Megan I agree... If women sports were getting the same attendance and ratings as men sports.

Instead of complaining about how women should make as much as men, how about work on finding away to make your product better in order to increase demand. But of course no one can say this.. Well Draymond Green did and people lost their fricking mind and wanted to "have a conversation" with him, which I think happened and I don't think it convinced him that women should get paid more.. Just because. Because these basic bitches can't understand simple supply & demand.

Their last scandal was when it came out that ingredients in their bread could also be found in the soles of shoes. Europe had already banned it before it came out here.

Nearly all these mega corporate sandwich chains are disgusting, but subway is easily the worst.

If you live in any population center over 50k people, odds are there are many mom and pops churning out far better sandwiches than any major chain. If you’re eating this shite, it should be out if necessity—like an airport monopoly or truck stop or some shite.
