    Not typically. When I do order Subway, I wind up getting a fat sandwich with extra chipotle sauce.

    I have no idea what you consider "healthy," but it's not really my focus when I'm ordering at Subway (typically I'm there because there are no good options for food in the area).

    I get a Veggie Delite on Italian, no cheese, most of the vegetables, and mustard. Pretty reasonable for calories, cheap, and is palatable.

    I just load up the veggies, light sauces, and no cheese!

    I like to have one once in a while. I get a 6-inch ham, wheat bread, cheese, easy spinach, tomatoes, pickles, extra olives, and mayo or light mayo.

    They were a regular lunch for me when I was first starting out. I stopped because I found frozen foods more interesting and convenient for lunch. I would get the veggie delite on flatbread with pepperjack cheese, spinach, green peppers, banana peppers, onion, tomato, cucumber, light mayo, and salt and pepper.

    9 grain whole wheat, foot long.

    Oven roasted chicken (if you want to avoid nitrates), black forest ham or turkey are all almost the same.

    Mostly any veggies (not olives & avocado), mustard, vinegar for approximately 600 calories, 7g fat, 80 carbs and 46 protein. Go crazy and add fat free Italian or sweet onion teriyaki for like some amount more carbs?

    They used to have a calculator.

    I get a 6 inch roasted chicken, double meat, on Honey Oat bread. Add all the veggies, vinegar and mustard.

    With chips and a drink, it's a filling meal for 560 calories.

    I get either a footlong veggie, no cheese, on wheat with spinach, lettuce, cucumber, pickles a touch of oil and a lot of vinegar or an oven roasted chicken on wheat with marinara, lettuce, olives, banana pepper, onions and green peppers toasted.
    We have a Subway at work so it's the only healthy option if I don't bring my lunch.

    This sounds SO good but how do you account for the marinara sauce caloriewise (if you do)? It's not listed under sauces on the nutrition calculator.

    Edited to add: Um. Nevermind. I'm on a calorie counting website with a database.

    I get one Monday nights on my way to skate. I get the wheat bread and usually veggies and a cheese, sometimes I do egg or egg whites. All the veggies they can fit and pepperoncinis and whatever dressing I'm feeling like. The Caesar weirdly goes well with most thing.

    I don't eat there often but when I used to go it was a footlong chicken bacon ranch with cheese, veggies plus chipotle. That used to keep me fueled up for my all nighters back in Uni. :)

    I like Subway and I eat it quite often.

    Usually chicken teriyaki, Italian herbs and cheese bread, cheese, lettuce, tomato, carrot, beetroot, dash of mayo or sweet chilli sauce.

    Not difficult to fit a 6 in into my calorie allowance - and a 6 in is big enough for me.



    Ps I even fit in a subway cookie sometimes too . B)

    I eat Subway pretty often because it’s so near my house. Any time I don’t want to cook, it’s an option.
    I usually cut a foot long into thirds, so I can fit almost any sandwich into my day. I like ham, roast beef, steak, and subway club.
    The cookies used to be hard to resist, but I’m getting better at it.

    I just get a subway Salad I'm in the UK and work at subway so I get my meal free when I'm on shift but we are only aloud a 6" sub so I make a salad up in a nacho box so the salad box numbers aren't screwed at the end of the night 🤷‍♀️

    Foot long veggie, on wheat, no cheese, red wine vinegar. I make two meals from it. I use my own red wine vinegar so it doesn’t get soggy. Very reasonable calories.

    On the rare occasion that I go to a Subway, I get the veggiemax patty on the most whole grain bread they currently sell with a bunch of veggies added. Sometimes it doesn't show up on the menu board, but they always have one available if I ask.

    I skip the bread and get one of their salads.

    6-inch Rotisserie-style Chicken on 9-grain. Toasted, no cheese. Spinach, lettuce, tomato, and onion, with a touch of sweet onion sauce. 310 calories and sodium is barely tolerable at 635 mg. But it's one of the very few fast food items that fit my sodium diet.

    I don't go to Subway often anymore but, when I do, I like the sliders. Sure, they're barbie sized (LIKE MY KIDS SIZED ROAST BEEF SANDWICH...ARGH!) but I like that I can get the steak and cheese and whittle it down to 140ish calories and not have to take the calorie hit on the 6 inch.

    I also like the (ARGH!!!!) roast beef sandwich. I have them scoop out the fleshy part of the bread and have it with some lettuce, black olives, and mustard. I barely miss that extra part of the bread.

    I'm definitely going to try that veggie delight concoction. I prefer more protein with those calories but that marinara sauce is selling me on it....

    6 in, whole wheat, turkey, pepperjack cheese, lots of veggies, and honey mustard.

    The 6" turkey is my go-to. No cheese, a little extra turkey and they will stack as many veggies as you ask for so I go BIG on the veggies, to the point that closing the sandwich is a challenge. Some honey mustard and it's a true masterpiece.

    I was wondering the other day about their bread. Nowhere in the wild have I ever seen a 6" roll with those calories. Do we think they're using the wiggle room of their margin for error by understating? Or are they bread wizards? 'd love to be able to source rolls like that for sandwiches at home.

    I don't like Subway very well at all. But when I go, I always get a steak & egg white breakfast sub on flatbread, no cheese, all the veggies & spicy mustard.

    I get the 12" whole wheat veggie, no cheese, extra hots, no pickles....their pickles taste fake. No dressing, no salt and pepper. I don't eat the top part of the bun. It's like a portable salad, very filling.
