Subway franchisees are fed up with Megan Rapinoe’s TV ads

People who eat out are repulsed by people like her. Subway is bland anyway.

I don’t understand advertisers logic on choosing someone like that. Why use someone polarizing to sell your product?

Basically every sandwich they make tastes the same - just like the store smells.

Not many people go out of their way for a $14 sub sandwich that only tastes like the bread it's made on

big ad companies are based on the coasts

they don't see her as polorizing

Any company that would chose Megan Rapinoe as its advertising representative has a corporate culture that is irredeemable. In putting Rapinoe as the face of their company, Subway has shown a willingness to hire someone who expresses contempt for this country and who is so insulting to many Americans and, subsequently, many of its potential customers. The only solution is to discontinue doing business with Subway. It is unfortunate that there are many franchisees linked to a national brand that is so out of touch with (and willing to openly insult) so many of its customers, but the only solution is to hit this brand where it hurts--i.e., in its bottom line.

One alternative: a Subway franchise could post signs clearly disavowing the advertisements of its national corporate office. Supporting a Subway franchisee who does this might be a viable choice.

Quoted for being well said.

I never ate at Subway often.

But given the choice of a burger or subway, I’d usually choose Subway.

Since they started the lesbian soccer player ads, I have not eaten there.

It’s probably not wise to irritate your customers when you have a mediocre product.

You'd think they would have leaned from the Jared fiasco. Would you like chips and a drink to 'make it a meal?' frick subway
