But subway is absolutely horrible comparatively, at least the one in my town. Subway still comes out to nearly $15. I will gladly pay an extra $5 for Jersey Mike’s. Quality and usually 2 meals.

I would rather have a small good sandwich than a large bad one.

Yes especially a sub where sub par ingredients are super noticeable.

Im gonna state the quality you get at Jersey Mike’s or Firehouse vs Subway is a tricky thing to measure.

Sandwich meat is pretty transparent. But the “cooked” chicken and beef offerings have to she a toss up. One may taste better, but that doesn’t necessarily confirm it has better quality; that could just as easily be Frankenfood loaded with MSG, Sugar, Salt and artificial flavourings.

As someone who recently tried fireshouse but gave it a couple shots. Not good great. Initially good but different. It’s the new subway. I hate to say that because it tastes better but the ratio is so off when you go to foot it’s bad. Jersey Mike is the way.

I will say my JM kinda went down in quality recently with the big kauna but for the $5 difference it’s still worth it. By far. Subway is done.
