unformed 0 #4 April 27, 2005 yeah, cuz the people who prep the sandwich put it on the metal "secret" tray, and then put it in the toaster, and then it comes out and somebody else either puts it in a bag or on a plastic tray. this way they don't get confused and do the wrong thing. the metal tray holds the secret communication.This ad space for sale.

AggieDave 6 #5 April 27, 2005 Quotehey're a fancier subway....with a toaster! Naw, they're a more expensive subway with crappy sammiches. Subway has toasters now, but try to explain to the high school dropout behind the counter how to cut your bread the "old way" and that you want a Pizza Sub. No its not on the menu, but yes you can make it... Ever want to climb over the glass and do it yourself?--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

Ashtanga 0 #8 April 27, 2005 Do you remember their old commercials with the hamster looking creatures with their eyes going around in circles? That song..."New quiznos subs...they are tasty they are crunchy they are warm because we toast them....we got a pepper bar!" What is the hell were they thinking?

skydiver30960 0 #10 April 27, 2005 WE LOVE THESE SUBS! CAUSE THEY ARE GOOD TO EAT! Those commercials are probably my alltime FAVORITE commercials. Don't pretend you hated them, you know you dig 'em... Elvisio "mmm... toasty" Rodriguez Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkiD_PL8 0 #11 April 27, 2005 No, I genuinely hated those commercials. The volume went up quite a bit when they came on and the high pitched annoying voices of those things drove me nuts. Greenie in training. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

divnswoop 0 #13 April 27, 2005 Quote What is the hell were they thinking? Smartest marketing move I've ever seen!! They were just starting to go nationwide and needed some help... Those ad's gave them a TON of extra exposer on other TV and radio shows. Now whether they meant to have such an obnoxious commercial that everybody hated and would talk about, I don't know.....but it worked!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DTOXX 0 #15 April 27, 2005 My son and I eat at a Subway last Sunday and I was reprimanded for calling the women behind the counter "Ma’am". (It should be noted that she was obviously NOT a teenager) She went on to say that she was only 27 and that means she is not a Ma'am. She then asked my age (39) and that as I am older I should NOT be calling he Ma;am. I then turned to my son who is 14 and said "Get her Matt!", at which point he looked at her and said "Yes Ma'am". ------- D.T. Holder SIMstudy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pilotdave 0 #17 April 27, 2005 OMG subway isn't even in the same league as quiznos. Toasters do help at subway, but it's just nowhere near as good. I never leave subway saying "MMMM TOASTY!" like every time I leave quiznos! And at subway I get funny looks when I only want the bread and cheese toasted and not the whole damn sangwich. As for rounded/square corners, I don't even wanna know. It tastes great either way. Dave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kelel01 1 #18 April 27, 2005 Thank goodness someone said it. Quizno's is the bomb diggity, and Subway sucks donkey balls. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pilotdave 0 #19 April 27, 2005 I used to like subway. Before I discovered that subs at freaking Wawa convenience stores are better. I miss Wawa... none north of PA. I used to give subway the finger every time I drove by just because I was embarrased that they sucked so much compared to Wawa. But then when Quiznos reached MD while I was in college, OMG... heaven.

Hooknswoop 19 #22 April 28, 2005 Quote Agreed. Subway can't touch the Chicken Carbanara sub at Quizzno's have they brout the Carbanara back? It was a special for a while and then they took them off the menu. I stopped going to Quiznos when they took it off the menu. Derek Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kris 0 #23 April 28, 2005 It's not on the menu here either, but when I've asked for it at two local restaurants they've always made it for me.Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
