So, I normally have a 6" turkey sub from blimpies with lettuce and tomato, and some hot sauce. Trying to find nutritional information for this has been next to impossible. If you go to the blimpie website they don't have the information listed, claiming that NY statutes are the reason. The restraunt doesn't have the information, and looking online has given me no less than 5 different answers.

I wish there was a subway that was closer :(

    I hear you!! I had a wrap at Blimipes a couple of weeks ago - no nut. info anywhere to be found! I even sent an e-mail to where they said to on their website and it came back undeliverable!! No more Blimpies for me. :cry:

    Thanks guys :) The real issue that I'm finding with the different sites online is they have different values for most of the nutritional information, so I'm not sure which one to believe! Anyways, I ended up taking advantage of my lunch and took a drive to subway. Veggie Delite 12" sub for 5$! Not used to meat-free lunches, but it was really REALLY good!

    Have you ever asked if they have some kind of literature right in the Blimpie store?

    I'll give that a shot, but I think subway made a customer out of me today. MUCH cheaper, and all of their sandwiches seem to be a good bit healthier.
