Sandwich Shop Blues

The big national sandwich chains can eat a cock. Quizno’s is just plain fucked up and isn’t worth a dime. Toasted and sub do not belong in the same sentence. Subway hires morons who fuck everything up every time. Togo’s used to actually be okay, but I was in one recently and thought I was in a Subway. The #16 (the Italian) always came on an Italian roll, now they are asking me to choose from a selection of Subway-eque squishy shit bread. What the fuck? I can see why a fast food burger would suck compared to a real one, but a sandwich is easy. They have all of the ingredients (except the bread) right, so why do they fuck it up so badly? It’s a lack of passion and the trend toward offering too many choices.

Sure, if someone wants too alter an existing sandwich to meet their quirks I am down with it, but leave every choice to the consumer? The reason people go out to eat is to be served, not to do it themselves. I have been ordering the same sandwich from Subway for years and every fucking time I go through the same shit. I say “I’ll have a BMT on wheat, with American cheese and everything. Make sure you put both kinds of peppers on it. Thanks.” Then the bitch behind the counter asks me what kind of bread I want, what kind of cheese and I have too nod furiously as she asks me about S&P, oil & vinegar and so on. I fucking hate that shit.

Of course I could just go to a real deli where they will get it right, except they hardly exist anymore and the cost has become ridiculous. Fuck ‘em, I’ll do it myself.
