In reply to the discussion: Subway Just as Unhealthy as McDonald’s [View all]fujiyama
(15,185 posts)The whole point of Subway is the option to customize the damn thing. If you like veggies, you have the option to pile them on. If you like tons of mayo, cheese, red meat, and salt - you have that choice too.
While the quality of the meat and veggies isn't always spectacular, it's usually reasonable enough (depending that too on the location) for a quick bite. I'll buy a foot long turkey breast or chicken breast on wheat, with a bunch of veggies and some oil and vinegar and some seasoning. I eat half for lunch and the other a little later in the day for a snack or dinner depending on how hungry I am.
Then again, even McDonalds offers salads. But when it comes down to it, there aren't all that many ways to customize a McD's burger or sandwich and for that reason I rarely go there.
Subway isn't gourmet hi fare dining, but it beats most of the fast food alternatives as far as I'm concerned. And where I work, I don't have a whole lot of options and many days I don't pack lunch, I go to the subway down the street.
