I've only had Subway once or twice in my life, years ago.
The bread was disgusting both times.

Our lettuce is pretty decent, but expensive at about $5 for iceberg, not much bigger than a baseball.

I hadn't heard that, but somehow I'm not surprised.
It tasted rather like a polycarbonate rubber or oil-based product.
Smelled like it too.
I'm not joking - I'm hypersensitive and overanalyse things.

Pretty sure Subway makes the franchisees buy products from the main company, that's a big part of how they make money, as well as ensure consistency.

Nothing, at least not inherently. It no longer has ADA in it.

It's just that it's cake.

As for ADA:

Quote:

As a food additive, azodicarbonamide is used as a flour bleaching agent and a dough conditioner. It reacts with moist flour as an oxidizing agent. The main reaction product is biurea, which is stable during baking. Secondary reaction products include semicarbazide and ethyl carbamate.

It's a big oversimplification to just say they have gym mats in them. :nerdy:

I seem to remember it had a hole in the middle too?
The bun was hollowed out or something?
It was just wrong.

Give me Mr. Sub any day, but not Subway or Quiznos.

In Ireland, subway bread was ruled to be a confection, as it contains too much sugar to be called bread.

^dont know if someone already said that^
Cant be arsed reading the whole thread, I have fields to herbicide.

Which is to say exactly like Wonder Bread. :mrgreen:

Here's a list of breads that contain the chemical and some of them are actually decent tasting:
