Quiznos: A Cut Above... Your Fat Ass

The first time I had ever eaten here, it was a shitty experience. The menu was okay, I suppose, but lacked a certain level of personalization. It was off to a bad start because almost every sub had something on it that I didn't agree with. This would have been okay, but they don't let you choose your toppings like Subway or Mr. Sub.


So I ordered a favorite sandwich of mine; Montreal Smoked Meat. I was excited, until I bit into its toasty "goodness." The sauce of the thing was repulsive to me. I gave it the benefit of the doubt and went in for a second bite, but scrapped the sub after that.


From that point on, I decided that Subway was my submarine shop, as everything that went onto my sandwich was my choice; not to mention it's about $2 cheaper too. So a couple years have passed with me not attending lunch at Quiznos.


Then, about a month or two ago, my sister offered to take me out for lunch there because she had a coupon from my parents and could get a free sub. I almost didn't go, but when I considered how my tastes have changed in the past few years, decided to give them another shot, and I had a free lunch.


I had no idea what I was going to order, but when I saw the menu, I just knew. They had a Beef & Swiss Melt on for a limited time. After reading the toppings of such a sandwich, I couldn't say no.


I bit into it and almost wet my pants in excitement as my mouth orgasmed. This had to the single greatest sandwich that has ever made contact with my mouth. I come back for another one at a later date. Next time Lmack joins me and we sing its praise. We go back several more times for this sub, and most recently, I had one today for lunch. I don't know what triggered it, but as I sat at work eating, I decided to look up the nutritional information on it. I don't have a lot of luck, but I do come across this.


If you didn't click on the link & read that blog post, stop now, and go read it. It's short and will completely change the way you view Quiznos.


Done reading? Okay, good. Now, what the fuck it that?! Taste like that apparently comes at ridicules costs. I mean, I personally am not on any type of diet, but they have subs that are an entire days worth of food. And even though that’s about right for what you pay, one sub does not hold me for a day.


What really shocks me is how they hide the facts. And I couldn't even find the nutritional information for my feature sub! It’s hard to imagine that a Big Mac is "better for you" than a sub. I guess I'm slowly and deliciously turning myself into a fat bastard.
