| - This is my second time at any Potbelly, but my first time at a stand-alone shop. My very first time at a Potbelly was at an airport location, and I could've sworn it was in SLC, but I could be wrong. The guy who took my order here said that I may have been at Chicago's Midway airport, but I always use O'Hare/ORD, so who knows? And you're probably saying "who cares?," right? So on to the food...
Ordered the Buffalo chicken sandwich with the special hot sauce. And this sauce is truly special, because it only contains peppers and other seasonings, maybe water. That's it. No cornstarch, corn syrup, or other corn derivatives, or even mustard, or tomato sauce. Nothing to keep me from ordering the sandwich. And am I glad I tried it! Had it on a whole grain whole wheat roll, and it came with blue cheese crumbles, as well. Very delicious! I also tried an oat-chocolate chip cookie that had only one questionable ingredient, which is palm oil. No corn syrup, cornstarch, or baking powder! Still very warm and full of semi-melted and gooey chocolate chips- HEAVEN! The package says it contains 420 calories... I had a couple of bites and was good. I suggest sharing it with friends, or be prepared to warm it up in its wax envelope in the microwave for about 45 seconds to soften it up. Not quite as good as it was when fresh a few days before. It was kind of sad, actually. Better to just share it with someone else...
I'll definitely come back to try another sandwich, or perhaps a salad. Potbelly sells hand-dipped milkshakes and yogurt smoothies, as well, but they're off-limits to me since both ice cream and smoothie bases contain corn syrup. :(
