    I've wandered the "heart healthy" menu but oh my fuzzy christendom the sodium.

    *THIS*

    OMG, the sodium... the bane of my nutritional existence! :mad: :mad: :mad: All of their breads are high sodium, but it's not just a Subway thing but a 'science of baking thing'. Even at home I use 'Tumaro' tortillas instead of normal bread. Hard to find locally, but I just found some more 2 nights ago after a 2 month drought. Flour totillas are horrific with sodium and I quickly fell out of love with the taste/texture of corn tortillas.

    Anyway back on topic... when I just gotta have Subway and I'm willing to overlook the sodium :noway: , my fave is:
    Roasted Chicken on flat bread, lettuce, tomato, green peppers, cucumbers, sweet peppers, black pepper, oregano, and either honey mustard or red wine vinaigrette. :tongue: :love: :tongue: :love:

    *edit - append*
    When I was 17 ('skinny years') my metabolism was high enough that 5 (school) days a week I'd eat a footlong meatball marinara with cheese and damn near everything else! Never gained a pound! Youth is wasted on the young! Where's my time machine?!

    Subway to me is a cheat meal. So many carbs- like 3/4 servings at once.

    Haha. Evidently I'm a) lazy and b) don't give a crapstick about sodium (I already spend ridiculous amounts of my day trying to get enough protein, not too much fat and not too much sugar and I figure the sodium I ate in my crap food years would faaaaaaar outweigh anything I could even hope to eat now, so I'm at least better than I was).

    I often find myself ending up at Subway so as to avoid the *really* bad stuff / fast foods. Probably a naive view, but I figure of all the foods I could be eating, Subway isn't *that* bad...

    I like to lick "the knife" between customers, can't find the calorie count for that though!:bigsmile:
  • I love, love, love the new chopped salad. I have all of my favorite vegetables and for protein I had the turkey breast and ham. Added a bit of pepper and for dressing, oil & vinegar. They put all of the ingredients in a bowl and sliced it right there. This is an awesome alternative if you're avoiding carbs and very filling and delicious too.

    Since I've changed my lifestyle - 6'' Italian with Chicken Tikka, no Cheese, Lettuce, Red Onion, Sweetcorn, Jalapenos, Pickles and Green Pepper.

    My old one would be - 12'' Hearty Italian OR Italian Herb and Cheese with Chicken Temptation, Cheese, Lettuce, Red Onion, Sweetcorn, Jalapenos, Pickles and Green Pepper SMOTHERED in Chipotle Southwest Sauce and either Chilli or Mayo! :L

    I used to get just a Turkey, Cheese, Lettuce and Mayo Sub on White.

    Now though, I hardly eat Subway unless it's the only option. After eating Jersey Mikes a few times, Subway just does not compare!

    6" veggie (lettuce, cucumber, onion, green pepper) on white (lowest sodium/calorie bread), no cheese, no condiments. I call it my Boring Little Sandwich. When I get home, I dress it up with at least a slice of cheese (Swiss or cheddar). If I have sandwich meat in the fridge, I'll put some of that on.

    That's it... i'm mad.

    We don't have all those goodies here (No Spinach, no avocado, no provolone and so on)... we suck... :mad:

    So... For my sandwich, I go with my mood.

    Either Italian BMT, Steak & Cheese... (I need to try the new Chicken Toscany!)

    I usually go with everything on it but lite mayo on the italian and italian dressing on the S&C...

    I haven't eaten Subway in so long! Anything that I don't cook myself is considered a cheat meal for me.

    But when I do:

    Italian Herbs and cheese 6 inch (actually, I used to order a foot long unless I was with someone who I felt would judge my poor choices.)
    Double cheese (cheddar and swiss)
    Chicken Pizziola without pepperoni I'd make them toast it with black olives on it.
    Then, I'd add a ton of spinach, to make it 'healthy'
    salt and pepper. And then a lot of Ranch or Creamy Italian dressing.

    I haven't had Subway since I've started dieting though. I'd probably choose something a lot healthier.
