    Oh goodie, a sugar train and now a Subway train! Just waiting for a McDonald's train to start, and we are good to go for the day. Toot toot!
    The McDonald's train is still going from the other day! :laugh:

    And no one told me?? Where!?

    You can catch it at the station of redundancy station! Or find it on the recent posts board. :tongue:

    Any bakery that you go into that is large scale commercial is going to use some form of mold inhibitor to make it's shelf life better. They are in it for profits and bread that sours after 2-3 days is not profitable. It is a chain restaurant and all.

    The only evil thing about subway is that their onions stink up your hands for days.

    I love it when people flip out about "chemicals" being in their foods. Guess what....... Water = chemical. Chemicals are literally the worst. Science.

    so your saying cavemen drank chemicals, i.e. water? There goes the whole Paleo thing…bahahahahahahaha

    I worked at subway for 5 years the bread comes frozen in a box. The first thing you do is spray the pan down with a pam like substance. Then you put the bread on the pan and spray it down with water, you put it in the rack and wait for it to thaw once it has thawed you add the honey oat or whatever else to make it the type of bread it is then you place it in the warmer so that it can rise to the correct height. The next thing you do is place it in the oven and let it bake for like 12 to 15 min. That is the subway bread making process.

    How long ago was this? I used silicone baking forms and no spray when I worked there.

    But you are essentially correct.

    You did?! Go make me a sammich.

    Wow - So much hatred spewed out over all this! You people just LOVE telling someone they are an IDIOT don't you? What a lovely COMMUNITY we've become! 2 Years ago, I didn't see very much of this negativity here. MFP has grown up to be Facebook!

    Now, on to my rebuttal to everyone who thinks I'm just a moron for posting an article like this!

    I guess Im just disappointed that they use so many preservatives and artificial stuff (in bread they bake right in the store) and feel the need to add so many chemicals.

    I fully knew that the meats and cheeses were processed and full of crap! But to put artificial colors in pickles or other chemicals in olives? Why? It's not needed?

    Seriously, we have a Subway within walking distance where I work and I may have go get me a sandwich.

    I think the OP had good intentions, but maybe he should have chosen a different title for the topic. Any title with Evil and food in the title is sure to get folks fired up.

    If I hadn't just eaten a mountain of pork I'd probably be walking over to Subway right now.

    I might just go get some Pop-Tarts from the shop downstairs instead.

    If you build your sandwich right and have a glimmering of an understanding of what your body needs, it is.

    Couple portions of veggies, some protein, a well structured transparent menu with calorie and nutrition information.

    Sounds like a bloody great option to me.
