Fast Food Cheesesteak Challenge
If "cheesesteak" comes up in a word association game, chances are you'll say "Philly." But, unless you're in the City of Brotherly Love, it's often hard to find a decent one—or find one at all. As a lifelong cheesesteak fanatic and native Pennsylvanian (though from the west side of the state), I decided to see how some of the big sub chains would stack up in the cheesesteak department: Subway, Quiznos, Blimpie, and New England favorite D'Angelo.Subway Fiery Footlongs: Hot Stuff?
Heat. It can be of the best ways to attract customers to a dish. Some respond to the lure of spice; some (often guys) can't resist the implied challenge of a really hot sauce—how much can you take without reaching for the glass of water? Subway recently began advertising its Fiery Footlongs, two subs "packed with heat"—which I thought merited a test.Breakfast Flatbread Showdown: Subway vs. Dunkin'
In the age of corporate strategy, there's no way a competitor will let you dominate a market unchallenged for very long. A while back, Dunkin' began offering egg white flatbread sandwiches, a lower-calorie alternative to its heavier breakfast fare—and to bolster their breakfast offerings, Subway now makes flatbread versions of their own breakfast sandwiches. I set out to see how they would compare.Quiznos vs. Subway: Toasted Sub Showdown
Fast-food brings to mind all sorts of negative terms—"fried," "greasy," and "artery-clogging" probably among them. That said, some American chains do provide lighter fare at a similar pace and price to a McDonald's or a Burger King. Wholesome? Homemade? Maybe not—but fast-food sandwich shops are, no question, among the healthier of your fast-food options. This week, we put Subway to the test against Quiznos, in a face-to-face showdown of the sub-shop chains.Comment of the Day: Olive You, Man!
"Subway actually has pretty strict rules about how much of each toppings they can put on your sandwich. My friend worked there, and I read the employee manual once. The line I remember is 'Do not let the customer abuse our generosity with olives.' Now I make a point of it." —CebronJames re "The Schumwich"
Subway Joins the Fast-Food Breakfast Sandwich Club
It's been a big few weeks for fast-food breakfast sandwiches. First Burger King added sausage-egg sandwiches and breakfast bowls to the menu (admitting they totally ripped off McDonald's) and last week, Subway launched a new line of five breakfast sandwiches. This got us thinking about fast-food breakfast sandwiches. Sure, it's tastier to make one at home or go to your local mum-and-pop deli, but sometimes you just can't. So what are your favorites?Data Visualization: Subway Locations in the U.S.
[Image: Dagoosh!] If you've ever passed a Subway and thought, "Wait, didn't i just pass one 20 seconds ago?" this map of Subway locations in the U.S. from Dagoosh! won't surprise you. Aside from the lack of a fiery red glow, It doesn't look very different from the McDonald's locations map. The farthest you can be from a Subway is 138 miles, between the towns of Austin and Eureka.
