Re: Is it possible to get a Subway sandwich that actually tastes like somethign?

[(Anonymous)]

That's true of virtually all fast food, though. Or restaurant food in general. Anyway, I am unlikely to have a ton of fresh produce on hand - I live alone and often work late, so it'd take a lot of energy and planning on my part to buy lots of fresh veggies and successfully use them before they go bad. At any rate, if I am already committing money to go out for lunch, no harm in getting something I enjoy (especially something relatively healthy).

Sure, but even a measly burger and fries I can understand - it's more work and higher cost ingredients compared to just sticking some lettuce between two slices of bread. Presumably you eat every day and if you're a vegetarian, using fresh vegetables up before they go bad doesn't seem like it should be too hard?

By that logic there's no point in ever buying fresh food in a restaurant? Salads, deli sandwiches, whatever.

I don't really agree. Having veggies on hand, slicing them up, and using them within a week (or usually less for me) before they get soggy and bad does require planning and work. Frankly, fries are easier if you can get them frozen and just put them in the oven, since frozen food won't expire and it doesn't really require any prep. (and it's not like your fast food chain is slicing potatoes or anything either)

Well, no. Convenience factors into it a lot for most people, but so does quality, cost and relative ease of preparation. I can certainly make a lettuce, tomato and bell pepper sandwich a lot faster than I can fry up a burger and fries, even from frozen. And it seems funny that a vegetarian can't use up a head of lettuce within a week. But you should do what works for you, obviously.

You seem to have ignored everything I've said. Heating something from frozen in the oven is easy and you can do it at your convenience. When you have an erratic schedule, work late, and can't easily plan meals, using fresh veggies takes a lot of effort and they go bad quickly. And a "head of lettuce" is hardly a sandwich - a good veggie sandwich requires a lot of veggies. Effort-wise - and for that matter, in terms of cost, too, because buying a bunch of veggies isn't exactly cheap - a couple dollars for a veggie sub is not a bad deal at all.

I don't think it's really lower cost, or else places like McDonalds and Taco Bell wouldn't be offering such cheap meat-based items.

Meat tends to be more expensive than most veggies when I grocery shop, but that may be flipped for fast food restaurants because meat and cheese and french fries can be frozen for shipping and storage, which makes it last longer and also be less prone to damage, and therefore may wind up being cheaper to have on hand in usable form than lettuce and other fresh vegetables, which bruise and wilt and rot. Also, the meat isn't necessarily very high quality.
