Sorry to hear of your culinary shortcomings. I hope that some day you

Yes, but it is still second rate. No, third rate. I've been to probably
100+ bakeries over the years that are far superior to the soft stuff at
Subway. Want good Italian? go to Veccione, DiNofa, Esposito, or many
others. Want real rye or pumpernickel? Widoff's or Sepvula's are my first
choices, but there are others.

I actually had one about 5 years ago and it was disgusting. The bread
fell apart and the sauce sucked. The meatballs were made from total
shit. Even their normal subs sucks. If you think that's good bread
you really need to stay away from your computer and go out into the
world.

Howdy Ed. I have one souce only for Italian bread and I don't know where
they get it from. It's brought in daily to the store and it is placed in
wrapper
sleeves after it gets there. (It arrives naked). And to agree with you,
Subway
isn't even close to the Itailian bread that I buy at Cacciaore Bros Mkt.
Nor
can I buy similar bread at any of the big box supermarkets, even those that
bake their own bread.

IMO, i tis worth the extra step or miles to find good bread. Fast food in
this country is rather sad in many cases. Sure, some is tolerable and
MdDonald's fries are a tasty snack at times, but most sandwiches are really
second rate or worse. What saddens me is the fact that people accept this
poor quality as being good. They've never had the quality ingredients and
accept this stuff as normal.

If you travel in Italy, the sandwiches on the Autostrade (turnpike) rest
stops are fantastic. Crusty bread, good meats and cheeses. Last time I ate
a meatball in a US sandwich shop was 45+ years ago. That was from a shop
across from the grocery store that I worked in after school and we supplied
the ground beef for them.

1 tablespoon dry bread crumbs

Makes 2 cups, enough for 4 sandwiches

I called and verified. They have their own facilities (commissary)
where the meatballs and the sauce are pre-made. Everything proprietary
to Subway is made corporate in house in their own facilities. Things
like mayo and mustard are wholesaled in.

Mass market efficiency.

I can't argue with what someone finds appealing. Heck, the forceps might

'taste' centers of the brain. My GAWD, man, look at the things the french

I never said it was first rate. All I said was, to disagree with Ed, is
that it's REAL bread. Which is proved by teh fact they bake it right there

So, if they baked horse-shit in front of you and called it bread, then that
makes it bread? Bread has a few specific definitions, of which 'they bake it
right there in front of you' is not one.

Actually, they don't bake it in front of you. They bake it in advance
and then cool it before they serve it to you. If you watched it bake
before you ate it, you would be there a couple hours. Maybe you
consider it worth your time, I don't. And the employees would be
whigged out by you watching all that time, nothing else to do.

Idiot, baking it in front of you proves it's BREAD and not horse-shit. If
they were baking horse shit, you could SEE that it's shit irregardless what
they call it.

Well, thanks for proving my point, Jabba. The shit that they bake in front
of you ISN'T bread, despite what they, or you, wish to call it.

Sure as fuck looks tastes and smells like bread to me. On top of all
that, they CALL it bread, also.

Thank you for providing a calibration standard by which to judge the
recommendations you make based on your five senses.

I was particularly "taken" by an episode of Anthony Bourdain's show in
which he went to a Korean restaurant where they served live octopus
squirming on a hot skillet plate. Yum!

Pretty sure all bread arrives at subway in frozen sticks, there are two bead types, defrosted before having the tops dunked into a mix eg. Italian herbs and cheese... And then put into mesh like trays to form their shape. All veggies are cut elsewhere and sent to subway in airtight bags, as is the same as sauces andmeats unless shop can't afford to..then they order whole veggies and get staff to cut. Meat and sauce are all in these stupid, easy spill bags.

I don't like the meatballs. Taste like something canned. Sauce is ok.
