Promotion of pseudo-science like this is malpractice. This company should be ashamed of itself.

Maybe hospitals should start giving away free cigarettes now too.

    I'd rather see Subway ads than the "banana wine stopper" ad I've been seeing for the last couple weeks. I thought about snipping a pic, but you guys can google it for yourself. :|

    Sandwiches are pseudoscience? :lol:

    Besides, if it isn't a 6 inch meatball sub on Italian herb and cheese bread with parm and fresh mozz, I'm not hearing it.

    Damn, that sounds good. Can I vicariously eat one through you?

    If it weren't for the calories and the sodium and the fact I'd scarf that sandwich down so fast I'd have indigestion for a week, I'd be good to go for a real one. :)

    I am afraid of googling that word combination.

    As you should be. ;)

    At least you didn't get the Starbucks ad everyone else has been complaining about lately.

    well that and subway is one of the few places at work with semi-decent food...the rest is highly suspicious at times

    Not a clue what you are referring to......

    This is a matter of degree. Are Subway sandwiches the worst fast food you can eat? Not even close. Are there things on a Subway menu that are better than others? Of course.

    I don't expect absolute truth in advertising. That's just not realistic.

    You'd think. But I don't drink wine, and have never done a search for wine or wine stoppers...
