Ever notice how no matter what you order from Subway it always tastes exactly the same..... so gross.

I think Subway destroys Mr.Sub and I like both. Mr.Sub has no selection for sauces as well. I eat both, but if you count out of 50 trips, 49 are to Subway.

I've known a few people who had a Mr.Sub and either sold it or it shut down. Everybody I know who has a Subway is thriving (Obviously location matters as well).

I'm also one of those people who like convenience. If Mr.Sub was close to my house and Subway was 3X further, I would probably go to Mr.Sub. Same distance, it's Subway all the way.

Dude, your life is WAY too focused on crappy fast food franchises.

My fridge beats subway anyday, hands down (whatever that means).

I try everything though. I don't just eat at "chains". If I like a chain, why not eat there. Expanding a business and having the quality go down isn't always a given.

Everybody likes different things.

On the flipside of this thread, who else is still POed that Blimpie's closed.

That place >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>every other sub chain

Still mourning Krispy Kreme. Damn you Calgary for letting it die so young.

Im not debating your comment but would be curious if any others know of people whom own subway franchises. I heard that they are a very tough chain to make it in and that they change hands quite a bit.

$8.99 for whatever you can dream up, and the equivelant of 2 to 3 Subway subs for weight/volume. And the use real cheese, and quality meats:

Safeway Lumberjack Sub. The sub they make in A LOAF, not a bun.

Me! There used to be at least 3 in town - the last one (in Deer Run) closed about a year ago.

1. The University of Calgary Subway is disgusting. I got a sub there a few weeks ago and counted four terrible violations of food safety in the two minutes it took the lady to make my sub. I'm lucky I didn't get e-coli.

2. I'm going to Safeway right now to get a lumberjack sandwich.

Soooo good. I could live off those forever. Even a decent deal if you can get them for $1 or $2 off. Great sub; really wish they made other varieties.

[MRCboicgy]

what I don't like about safeway subs is the fact they put mayo and/or mustard on their subs - two of few list of things that don't go in my body

Random question...

The Kal Tire that's in the SW corner of Chinook - did that used to be a Fountain Tire?

Just go to the counter and get one custom made....

My favorite concoction is:

Turkey breast
Cranberry
Provalone
Pepper
Lettuce
Tomato
Cucumber
Mayo (optional)

Ask them to make it lumberjack size, and they will charge you 10 bucks for it.

Safeway Subs are amazing, unfortunately I usually don't have two hours to waste as the random deli employee stumbles their way through my lunch.

They make lots of varieties. Go to the deli. It's better than Subway, and therefore, MUCH better than Quiznos or crappy Mr. Sub.

Edit* Just make sure to get there before 1130 or else don't be in a rush, as per MMF's point.
