Domino's Pizza is introducing baked submarine sandwiches, available for $4.99 nationwide starting August 25, with flavors like Chicken Bacon Ranch, Chicken Parmesan, and Philly Cheesesteak. How weird will it be to order delivery from Domino's, but it doesn't have to be pizza. Hopefully they'll have the special insulated holders, but sandwich-shaped, for prime preservation during travel.

From Ask MetaFilter: Why is there no more milk delivery in the US? It used to be common, now it's extremely rare. Why is that? The short(ish) answer: First, larger dairies meant cheaper milk, making it harder for milkmen to make a living, especially since they had to wash and reuse the glass bottles. Second, the advent of both supermarkets and cars meant housewives could buy supplies on their own schedules. Perfectly valid reasons, but man, plastic jugs and cartons are so dull.
(Ronnybrook Dairy's milk is fatty and delicious, but I will cop to buying it at least partly because it comes in glass bottles.)
Keith of unrelatednews was wondering why his reliable Chinese delivery place had suddenly gone bad, and "then yesterday I was taking a cab home and as we passed 10th and 4th, I saw that Rosie was closed! And right then and there it all makes sense! Another Chinese delivery place took their number and have been pretending to be Rosie! They've gone as far as trying to offer what was on their menu."
So sneaky! I've had old favorites change management and change cooks on me, too, but I've never experienced a fake out like this.
