subway is low fat if you skip the cheese and drop all sauces and oil and limit yourself to 6". Of course, the end result is a dry, not so good meal, but it is low fat.

The problem that most american's have with weight control is that wee eat too large of servings and sit on our butts to much.

most people of the world walk a lot more than the average american and eat smaller meal portions. They also take longer to eat meals, so the body has time to digest and process a meal and trigger the I am full message. When we chow down and go, we are done with the too large meal before our body can tell us we have had enough.

Yep, just a day or two ago I had McDonald's at a total of 1285 calories and 58 grams of fat and Lord only knows how much sodium.

I told my gal that I'm surprised that California doesn't have some sort of calorie limit for fast food... like if you go to order something and it's just you and the cash register computer gizmo says "WARNING, calorie limit exceeds 1000, is this for more than one person?"

OK...........several weeks ago we were having a busy day. Nobody felt like cooking so my wife ran into Subway for some sandwiches. I almost always get the "Subway Club" w/ everything; this time I told her to get me a hot sub...beef or something...I don't remember. Anyway......my wife hands me a bag and says....."Enjoy your $8 sandwich".

WTF? Well anyway, I figured the sub I ordered was just more expensive or something.

A few weeks later, she stopped by again for sandwiches.....this time she orders my "usual" which is not really very expensive (maybe even a "$5 foot long). Again........she walks into the house and says, "Enjoy your $10 sandwich". ?????? So I ask her WTF?

She said that SHE asked the clerk why it was so expensive and the clerk said "Double meat and cheese". She didn't order double meat/cheese and said as much. The clerk offered a blank stare.

She paid for it anyway.......not sure why, but I know better than to ask why a women does anything.

So..........this bitch added extras without asking and charged my wife for it. I guess I have to think of a fun way to make this "right" now!!!! Perhaps a large custom party sub for Mr. Jablowme is in order!!!!!

re 11: Cut and paste your post into a letter to Subway customer service or corporate headquarters. You'd be AMAZED at the free **** you get if you complain in writing to the right person.

I've only done it four times, but it's been worth it every time (I complained to United Airlines once about a flight where they gave my seat away, re-booked me at the last second, then ran out of food, etc. -- and they gave me a voucher for free round-trip travel anywhere in the U.S.). Try ending the letter with: "Is there any reason why I should ever spend another dollar at Subway again?"

P.S. Notes written in scrawled, angry handwriting also get some attention! (And put some baby powder in the envelope -- it's "fancy"!)

"PLUS I added more profanity so they don't think I'm a nut job"

interesting. not trying to be an ass, but profanity has never helped convince me of anything other than the person I'm dealing with does not deserve my time or attention. Somebody hurts your family, then ya, but somebody rips you of $5 bucks, not much of a reason for profanity in MHO.

#16.......uh oh.......you may be right.

I also sent them a picture of me naked with a "Born to Kill" tattoo on my ****.

Maybe that was a mistake.

In the present condition, it looked like "BL".....so maybe they'll just think my name is Bill.

One of the little kids in my neighborhood was selling fundraiser coupon packages for $10. I thought it was just a one time deal where you get a small discount on local restaurants, maybe use it once, but I was amazed to find out that the coupon card came with 32 coupons... for $10.

Here's what was included:

Shari's Restaurants - 10 coupons for "buy an entree and two beverages and get a second entree of equal or lesser value FREE."

Subway - 22 coupons for "buy a six inch sub and a medium beverage and a bag of chips get a second six inch sub of equal or lesser value FREE."

Too bad these are only good at Seattle/ western Washington area Subways or I'd mail them to anyone who wants them 'cause I'll never use them. For what you pay, Subway is not a good deal even with a free 6".

We used a Shari's coupon on Friday and it saved us $10 on the bill. I've got 9 more of those.
