    I would also say that the very fact that there is a high sodium content in many of their menu items is another logical reason why Subway should be avoided.

    Sorry if I repeated the person above me thoughts on this subject.

    However, the fact that there is way too much sodium in the American food supply can never be said enough...
    proper hydration and functioning kidneys will prevent problems with sodium.

    As long as you're taking in normal amounts. Processed food is usually LOADED with sodium, often at levels 2-3 times what the body requires in a day.

    I count sodium and potassium in my diary and eat processed foods every day. In spite of eating processed foods, I am consistently below the RDA for sodium and over the RDA for potassium.

    Your argument is invalid.

    Oh yeah... and sometimes that sodium comes from Subway. yum.gif

    that's a pretty broad category..... what are you counting as processed food? Bread is processed, most cheeses, yogurt, milk, etc. Any food that goes throgh a process to prepare it for human consumption is considered processed. Canning, homogenization, pastuerization, are all processes. Dehydrating pasta and putting it into a box is a process.

    But some people do, and they should still go there and eat if they want to.

    Chemicals aside, the smell that wafts from the door of every Subway I've ever walked past is enough to make me avoid them! :sick:

    I'm glad that's not just me! I'm not anti any kind of fast food or worried about food scares but the smell of subway makes me heave

    It smells like vomit! I can't even walk in without wanting to hurl!

    Yes! I thought I was the only one who thought that. People tell me it smells like bread baking.. To me bread baking smells good, and subways doesn't smell like that. Maybe it is too much bread rising in one small store at once.

    Well it will definitely end up that way...


    But then again, so does most food.
  • This is going to send all the shills out of their holes on this forum. They know who they are. The ones that on every single post that even remotely mentions a fast food joint jump into defensive action. They arent fooling anyone...

    I also heard many soda companies put dihydrogen monoxide in their drinks, a chemical which is also found in herbicides, poisons and acids!

    On a serious note, where else it is used in is completely irrelevant and fear mongering. It's a normal food additive and only recently been removed from usage in the UK, EU and Australia because it might be linked to asthma and allergies.

    I think it's sad that we class food additives as being "normal" these days. I wonder how humans ever survived when we could only eat food that came from nature and didn't have a chemical **** storm added to it.

    Other bread preservatives such as 282 are strongly suspected to cause behavioural difficulties and learning difficulties in children, commonly misdiagnosed as ADHD.

    I have heard of many serious concerns about dihyrdrogen monoxide build up in the body.

    Unless you raise your own meats and plant your own garden, you have no clue what is really in anything you eat.

    Often they didn't, due to the lack of access to affordable food.

    Yes, they survived without food additives, well, no not really. Most "food additives" are things that come from other food sources. Yeast was one of the first food additives, came from beer, was added to bread. Then came salt to preserve foods. Then in the 1950s people started becoming obsessed with lowering sodium, so they demanded ways to preserve foods that reduced sodium. Hence the plethora of preservatives we have today. They're there because human beings wanted them, and because we've developed the scientific abilities and intelligence to create them.

    Of course, humans survived back then without houses, cars, computers and the internet also, so, I'm not sure how what people did thousands to millions of years ago is exactly relevant to today, anyway.
