They actually have Subways in Thailand, but I wouldn't eat in such a place even in the USA.

Turkey breast, if any, but I prefer other sub places if I have to get a sub.

I don't blame you.  The food station at the one up the street from my house looks like a bomb went off in it half the time.  Ick.

I don't see the appeal of Subway. I can make myself a sandwich for far cheaper than $5. Doesn't even involve any cooking. Just bread, meat, whatever. It takes 30 seconds to take the ingredients out of the fridge and assemble.

The quality of the bread and meat seemed abysmal to me.

If I'm going to get a sub I'd rather go to Firehouse Subs.

Ten in my ZIP code.  Count 'em, ten.  One is only about an 800-meter walk from my crib.

For the uninitiated, here's some info:  http://www.subway.com/subwayroot/default.aspx

I usually get the Tuna.  I have them put copious amounts of mayonnaise on both sides of the bread.  They don't like to do it since they have this conveyor-belt system set up and the mayonnaise is at the end.  They're a bit like the Soup Nazi in that regard, but I always make 'em put the mayonnaise on the bread.  Then I have them throw down the tuna and then put provolone cheese on top of that.  Then I have them put peperoncinos, pickles, olives, tomato, purple onion, jalapeņos, a few more jalapeņos, okay can I get a few more jalapeņos.  Now, can you dribble some mustard, oil, and vinegar over the top and a little hot sauce?  Thanks.  Do you want that toasted?  Hell, no.  Would you like to make it a meal?  No, just the sandwich, thankyou.

My son likes the chicken teriyaki, and he likes his toasted.  Also, he has an aversion to cheese.  I'd say we eat at Subway more than all the other fast food restaurants combined.  Not that we eat fast food often, maybe once a month, but in any given year that probably amounts to six times at subway and six times at all the Burger Kings, Wendy's, Carl's Jr, etc., combined.  

I'm considering having a subway footlong tonight.  I don't want FebruANY to pass by without my ordering at least one Five Dollar Footlong.

I do really miss a proper sandwich - obviously there are no good sandwiches in Thailand.  But Subway is not good.

Over here I do get the very rare sandwich fix in Laos and Cambodia:

I enjoy Subway.  I like it better than, say, Quiznos.  Of the list above, I generally get Turkey and Black Forest Ham.

Italian BMT all the way with spinach, onions and black olives with a little mayonase. However nobody there knows what the phrase "a little mayo" is so you have to watch them pretty close. I want one very small line of mayo, not to just squeeze half the bottle going back and forth about 5 times. God forbid if I asked them for a lot of mayo, would they dip the whole sandwhich in a vat of it or something?

I don't care for quiznos either.  

Can't comment on the pig's ear and pig liver sandwich since I haven't yet had one.

It scares me how long the tuna has been sitting there in improper temperatures.  But with the sh**t you put on it, it's likely all the ick is offset. Tongue

Since I don't order any of their "regular" subs, my hunch is that they take the base cost of five dollars, add the total cost of the sub ingredients itself, and that's how I end up with a sub that's $7.42. My picky eating habits should be helping me save money, not lose it. Tongue

You can get the Bahn Mi in the Bad Place. I get them from time to time here in Memphis, so certainly they're available in any city.

hahaha.  I do like tuna.  I like the smell of it.  I like the taste of it.  I like it sauteed in butter.  I like it fried in oil.  I like big steaks of tuna on the barbeque, and I like it from a can.  I have it on sandwiches or in pasta, or even raw and wrapped in rice and seaweed and doused with sweet vinegar and sesame seeds.  I even drink the fluids when I open the can, rather than waste it by pouring it down the sink the way some folks do.  You can't really go wrong with tuna.  Anyway, I always wash my dinner down with enough ethanol to prevent any opportunistic single-celled organisms from presenting a problem.
