Who needs a foot long anyway?

I understand the old, you should get what you pay for and this is what was advertised yadda, yadda etc. But they also tell you that Jarred lost 5000 pounds or more eating only their sandwich.

I would be more concerned about the quality of that average of 11.75 inch sandwich than the length of the carb enriched chunk of dough.

I know you, of all DUers, remember what it was like when we all laughed our asses off in the lounge.
It was a place to forget, to be happy for a moment.

I'm gonna take a bit of heat for it but I intend to bring real smiles, nay, hardy chuckles
to this place if it's the last thing I ever do.

On a good day, it's as advertised, but there's not need to break out the measuring tape.

Not two. and not four.

However, the subject of footlongs is getting me hungry. I think there's a coney dog in my near future ...

I had TWO coney dogs. Yes, with chili, onions, yellow mustard, and just a little hot sauce. Way too much chili to pick the things up, so I used a knife and fork. Yeah, it's wimpy.

Ice tea to wash it down.

But I have a weight loss plan. I'm going to give blood this afternoon. I expect to lose one pound.
