Subway Nutrition Calculator

I normally use the Nutritionix Subway meal calculator (http://www.nutritionix.com/subway/nutrition-calculator) as Subway is one of my go-tos for a quick meal from out. But, I just tried the nutrition calculator on the Subway website (http://www.subway.com/nutrition/nutritionlist.aspx) and got way different numbers! For example, a footlong turkey sandwich on wheat I have always calculated at about 660 calories, but the Subway website says it's something like 440! I think there must be an error with their website calculation because it makes more sense to me that a footlong would not only be 440 calories, but what do you think?

    Are you reading the calories column, or the grams column?

    It also depends on if the subway servers put the precise amount of ingredients on your sandwich which is highly unlikely

    My fiancee did the same thing - it's a pretty easy mistake to make.
