coleman26 Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 You know what? I just walked down to my local Subway and got a footlong meatball. Whipped out the measuring tape, 12 3/4 inches. I ASKED FOR A FOOTLONG! GIVE ME MONEY! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragon Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Subway sandwich sizes are fine..... But anyone noticed that some pizzas are getting smaller and thinner? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coleman26 Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 I upped it, and I am 100% doing that next time I go in. If I can keep the face. I probably can't. I lack that kind of control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tortorella's Rant Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 I'm sure not all buns are going to come out 12 inches. And 'Muricans suing for $5 million in damages. What a joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Hartnell's Mane Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 It could also suggest that it is as long as someones foot.......:-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Hartnell's Mane Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Had you realized that I am in fact both you would have saved yourself a good deal of embarrassment. And you still have yet to grasp the legal issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wetcoaster Posted January 26, 2013 Author Share Posted January 26, 2013 What exactly is the legal issue...a couple of meatheads from New Jersey kvetching over the length of their sandwiches? Christ on sale people are so damn sue-happy these days...I hate to burst your bubble but this is the most ludicrous thing I have ever heard of....well..aside from the two idiots who are trying to sue Lance Armstrong because they bought copies of his book and it turns out he is a fraud. That's pretty damn ridiculous too. I mean...think about this...say it turns out the story of Jesus and the rest of the Bible is untrue...are people going to next be suing the people who wrote the Bible...in absentia? Or the bookstores they bought them from? ...or what about Baskin Robbins? You go in there and they're out of three of their 31 advertised flavors...so now it's 28 flavors...do you sue them for falsely advertising on their sign that they offer 31 flavors? Where does this kind of crap end? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Hartnell's Mane Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 I'm not in BC, but as these practices likely are similar to the US's that is very important information to know. Thank you WC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grapefruits Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 So now food costs and labor costs will rise. Measure every bun to insure it meets the 12" standard. Throw out the ones that don't? All I see are prices rising from this. Lets face it. Im sure the bread is weighed to a specific weight before baking similar to pizza dough. We are still getting the same amount of toppings, the bread just isn't baking to the exact size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Hartnell's Mane Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 The main hole in your argument is that Subway management has come out and said it themselves that the footlong sandwich does indeed refer to 12" (IN LENGTH) and that any variance in this is due to the fact that not all employees follow their directions on how to bake the bread exactly . So your nominal lumber dimensions are moot in every aspect of this. Personally I think they should be giving smaller size sandwiches becauset this may help the obesity problems faced in North America. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
