@toddrunion2 26 дней назад

Where I live in NH there are 12 Subways close by. Most owned by the same owner and all are terrible. I used to spend a lot of time traveling locally in my job and ate at most of the 12 at some point. If you like a Lettuce Sub, then these places cant be beat. All cold cuts and cheeses were of the see thru variety. I stopped wasting my money and found all the decent mom'n pop sub shops to be vastly superior. I did stop at a Subway 1 time up in a teeny tiny beautiful town in Maine. I was hungry and my options were limited to Dunkin's or Subway. I got a 6" Italian. Just the standard 6" sub with oil and vinegar. I was shocked. It was packed with meat and cheese. Loaded. At that point I hadn't been in a subway in years. A few weeks later I thought I would try 1 of the local shops close to my home. Same story as before, see thru meat and cheese. I haven't been back in a Subway in over 8 years.

Yeah, the Coke machine at my local store in the UK was really disappointing. The Pepsi machine was a touchscreen with plenty of options (two or three kinds of Pepsi, 7up, Tango orange and Tango apple I think, Lipton peach iced tea, and a Robinson's juice). The Coke machine was the old style and only had four choices. And there was no ice machine 😮

The Series subs are largely a way to trick you into paying for more add-ons (e.g. double cheese, pepperoni on a meatball sub, bacon, etc.). Even though they say double cheese, I don’t think they’ve ever given me more than on a classic sub. And I think they got rid of the classic Italian to only have the Series option.

@barrymanriver4493 23 дня назад

19:35 As someone unfortunate enough to have to work there for a year, I can confirm that's exactly how they did it. Pick a bag of (probably stale because they were kept on top of the warm meatball cabinet) Doritos, chuck a spoonful of sauce (I think it was marinara sauce from the meatballs), a pitiful handful of grated cheese (you got a stern talking to if you used too much), and chuck it in the microwave for a minute. I don't know why they didn't use the industrial toasters. To this day it baffles me that anyone would pay for that torture in a box.

@traceypotter7669 25 дней назад

UK Subway meatball marinara just tastes of sage now. Used to enjoy them, but the overwhelming taste of sage is horrid. Also, when my daughter was around 3, she used to love quavers! So did my brother in law. Until him and my sister took her out for the day. She put quavers into my brother in laws coffee, and he didn't realise until he took a big swig 😂

@nighttimedaytime1192 26 дней назад

As food and drink seems to go wrong by the time you get it back to your studio.. cheese congeals, slush drinks melt etc... why not do this ? as your set is just a white background and a table, why not get a truck or a van or something, put your set in there, and park it right in the parking lot of the places you eating from ? that way you could get shooting right away and enjoy the products as they are supposed to be enjoyed....
