If I have to choose between the sub shops that I have been to I would rank them as follows.

Jimmy Johns
Jersey Mike's
Firehouse
Quiznos
Subway

Ehhh, it's a sandwich from a sandwich shop chain. It's probably my favorite sub shop right now, but it is just a sandwich. Not that profound.

I always get the #43.

It's similar to Blimpie if you've had that

I'll get downvoted by all the fatties, but all the sub chains are disgusting processed meat.

JMs is always good, perhaps a bit overrated.

As little as I frequent sub shops I’m usually just gonna go for my favorite. The loaded Italian from potbelly’s. Enough sodium, fat and carbs to stay me for a while.

since when is a sandwich chain considered overrated or underrated

you know what you are gonna get going to a chain sandwich place, it is what it is

it's not trying to be a 5 star restaurant

I was with you until the Subway part

JM is fine, but I don't understand why it is so beloved. But Subway is gross.

Subway is your favorite and you also discuss flavorless ingredients? Is that what you like? Lack of flavor? Jersey Mike's is very far above Subway.

I feel the same way about Capriotti’s. All of their hot subs are legit, favorite was their pastrami.

One is allowed to think Jersey Mike's is overrated, I personally don't but whatever

However, thinking Subway of all places is better is an interesting take

Well not literally. It’s in a strip mall next to my apartment complex entrance. I guess living in an apartment is trashy.

Quiznos
Jersey Mike’s

Firehouse
Subway
Jimmy John’s

The demise of Quiznos is a sore spot with me. I’ll go out of my way on road trips to go to one.

I love Jersey Mike's because it's a quality product, and it's consistent. Of all the times I've gone, at different locations throughout the country, I've never had a complaint. Subway, on the other hand, is an absolute joke. I placed a mobile for a meatball sub from Subway the other day for my son, and they cancelled it because they were out of meatballs. WTF

Jersey Mike's is simply a good sub shop. It's not life-changing!

However, Subway is f'n disgusting!

I stopped at the Subway in Diamondhead once going to the beach, and they were out of bread. Stopped again coming back and the fresh mozzarellaamold on it.

Even Blimpies (RIP Baton Ruch location) was better than Subway trash

JM and Potbelly are top tier sandwich shops

Firehouse, Quiznos, schlotzkys and Jimmy John’s are tier 2

Subway is bottom tier
