| - Two back-to-back late concert nights caused me to forget to pack a lunch the other morning, so reluctantly I headed to the Subway on Wood Street prior to hopping aboard my bus.
Yeah, I suppose Joe is right. Ya can't expect much out of Subway, BUT when my flatbread foot-long sub of tuna, bacon, and avocado AND my two cookies and bottles of iced tea come to over $15 (!!), I should come away feeling more than just full for the moment.
Let's talk about that flatbread. It had been introduced in the years since my Subway exile borne of burnout and settling for less, which means that it is new to me.
Bit into a rubber kitchen counter mat. That's Subway's flatbread.
Now, the tuna itself is decent, especially when coupled with their acceptable, microwaved bacon, cheese triangles, and ranch dressing, but *gulp* that "avocado" product is below banal.
They can cut fresh veggies but have to serve the avocado in a bag, mashed-up into something resembling guacamole, and squeeeeeeeze it onto your sandwich. The young man behind the counter nuked mine first since it was frozen.
I can dig the chewy cookies, however.
I'd honestly give them a 3 had my tab been less that 15 dollars, which is an obscenity considering what you are served here. Ack. Stay far away.
