he's lied four times this boy definitely lying subway touts itself as a fresh and healthy
alternative to traditional fast food but it turns out you can't always believe the marketing hype
so sink your teeth into these 10 big lies subway told customers let them eat frozen bread
i have to lie everybody lies as part of the subway chains promotion of healthy
fresh eating it has often promoted its breads as fresh baked every day right in the store
when you walk into your local subway and smell the unmistakable aroma of bread baking all seems well
with the world but the truth might not be quite so delicious the fresh baked bread promise certainly
implies that the dough was made on-site then lovingly put in the oven to bake unfortunately
the truth is that each store receives quantities of frozen bread dough that is baked as needed now
that everybody knows you don't really have to hide or lie to people so technically yes subway does
bake the bread in its restaurants but the bread isn't actually made fresh in the restaurant so
subway has a little wiggle room here but not much as if this isn't bad enough it turns out
subway doesn't make its cookies at the restaurants either they arrive as balls of frozen dough just
like the bread it was probably too much to ask for a huge fast food chain that serves thousands and
thousands of customers every day to take the time and effort to actually make its bread and cookies
from scratch daily at every store the truth is most customers would be okay with this reality
the trouble is this is at best a half truce that encouraged people to believe something
that isn't really true define all natural eat healthier you too julius most fast food chains
offer mostly greasy and salty food that is high in fat and calories but subway has marketed itself
as the exception this fast food chain is the healthier choice that uses all natural ingredients
the trouble is that its claims might depend exactly how you define all natural let's face
it subway is not a farm to table type of business where quality takes precedence over quantity they
are in the business of serving as many customers as possible it's not like the animals are raised
and kept at the restaurants so out of necessity processed meats and cheeses are used to make
the sandwiches uh-oh that's not healthy like other fast food chains subway uses condiments and sauces
that contain preservatives and other additives to keep them from spoiling the employees would have
to make the mustard and other condiments fresh every day to live up to the all-natural promise
subway has made to its customers perhaps the biggest problem with this all-natural line came
when it was revealed that subway's bread contained an ingredient found in yoga mats subway did remove
the chemical from its bread in 2014 however subway's reputation took a hit especially when
it comes to its claims of all natural ingredients opposite of fresh the horrors of an unfresh bowl
maybe subway customers can put up with the fact that a lot of subway's food arrives at the stores
frozen and is often highly processed after all this is still a fast food chain however food not
being as fresh as advertised is still on a whole different level than food that might actually be
past its expiration date highly processed foods like deli meats and condiments can be pushed past
their official expiration a little bit old food on the other hand fresh ingredients like lettuce
and tomatoes are perishable and have short shelf lives before they start to spoil it would be hard
to serve wilting brown lettuce and mushy tomatoes as fresh but apparently subway employees are
sometimes told to push the limits as much as they can to save money some employees have alleged that
they have even been told to change the expiration date on some food so they can continue to serve
them to customers if this assertion is true then it's one of the big lies subway told customers and
it may be putting customers hells at risk many customers eat at subway because they believe it
is a fresher and healthier eating choice than other fast food chains however if subway is
using expired food in its stores then this would likely change how customers feel about the food
they're ordering handling of your food i don't mind getting my hands dirty subway's reputation
as a healthier and fresher alternative might imply that the food is always safe to eat but this may
be another one of those big lies when you eat at any restaurant you expect a basic level of hygiene
but even this could be in doubt when you eat at subway employees have reported that dirty produce
like tomatoes have been cut in the slicer then meat would be put in the slicer without cleaning
the equipment according to the fast food chain's guidelines employees are required to always follow
strict hand washing procedures and proper glove usage for all food handling processes
former employees have alleged that some workers don't always wear gloves or don't change their
gloves as often as they should both issues could expose customers to bacteria germs bugs thousands
of organisms are all around you all the time speaking of bacteria there have also been reports
of employees using dirty containers to store food which would potentially expose customers to more
bacteria people have a right to be safe when they eat at any restaurant so hopefully subway
is doing the best it can to address these issues and safeguard its customers and its reputation
from further harm the price is right for just five dollars it's a great start to anyone's day
subway has long used its 5 foot long sandwich promotion to draw customers to its stores
this popular promotion has been around since 2007 and many people have gotten used to it the trouble
started in 2016 when subway decided to raise the price of the five dollar foot long to six
dollars besides upping the price it also messed up the five dollar foot long jingle that is still
in many subway customers heads customers were understandably annoyed and it didn't help that
subway's explanation was that costs have gone up a lot so customers were just going to have to deal
with it really by itself a dollar is not a lot of money but on the other hand a dollar increase on a
five dollar sandwich is a big percentage increase to swallow all at once in 2018 subway tried to
change course and go back to the five dollar sub promotion as you might have guessed this attempt
to clean up its mess did not go as the fast food chain planned local subway owners pushed
back saying that the return to the five dollar foot long cut into their small profit margins
subway didn't force the local stores to honor the price so most didn't and left customers holding
the bag with the more expensive sandwiches this dust up left a bad taste in everyone's mouth but
it seems subway was able to move past it something fishy please no more tuna okay subway has a lot of
sandwiches to choose from and one of its most popular choices is the tuna sub the problems
arose when people started questioning whether the tuna sub actually contained strictly tuna
or something else someone decided to sue subway over it alleging the fast food chain uses cheaper
ingredients although what the other ingredients might be are not identified the new york times
decided to do an investigation to try to clear up this fishy story so we did our own test to see
what's between the bread it purchased several tuna subs at different locations had the samples frozen
and then analyzed at a laboratory unfortunately the results were not very encouraging
no tuna dna was detected in the samples but this doesn't necessarily mean that it's one of subway's
big lies when tuna is heated the proteins break down making an accurate identification
almost impossible a separate analysis showed that the subway tuna subs did in fact contain
tuna as advertised this revelation should make customers feel better about their sandwich choices
obviously subway vigorously maintains that the second analysis is in fact correct and
there is absolutely no truth to the lawsuit that alleges the chain uses anything other than tuna
the lawsuit doesn't mention what subway would be using instead of tuna and frankly we don't really
want to know whatever the truth is the tuna sub remains a popular choice at subway restaurants
we might have some in the back what do you mean according to some employees at subway you can't
always take their word for it when they tell you they're out of something you want on your sandwich
this begs the question why would subway employees lie about whether they have
certain items in stock or not before we start conjuring up conspiracy theories about this one
we have to think of the obvious many people are just plain lazy and many employees are lazy too
some of the reported 38 million subway sandwich combinations are boring or time consuming to make
can imagine how how difficult this is for you these factors can lead some employees to lie to
customers so they don't have to make a particular sandwich this will sound a little strange to most
of us since it's a subway employee's job to make sandwiches there's also one particular ingredient
that seems to get extra attention from subway employees light mayonnaise some employees have
admitted that when the light mayo runs out the bottle is often refilled with the regular mayo and
with the blessing of the manager hopefully they are able to make your sandwich of choice the next
time you're at subway but if they can't you might have to wonder why foot long comes up short you
want to finish these things they're huge when it comes to a subway sandwich size does matter there
has been some controversy over whether footlong subs are actually 12 inches long when you order
a foot long sub sandwich at subway regardless of the price you assume that you were getting the
size you paid for what it really comes down to is the frozen dough that the locations used to
make the bread for the sandwiches are the loaves consistently 12 inches long or some other length
i'm not doubting that then what this first became an issue in 2013 when a customer posted a picture
of his footlong sub on social media claiming it only measured 11 inches subway claimed that if the
sub really was 11 inches it was due to an isolated mistake in the bread making process which resulted
in the short loaves of bread according to a lawyer who represented subway customers he bought subs
from several locations and none of them measured the full 12 inches so in 2016 subways settled and
paid more than half a million dollars in legal expenses as well as promising to ensure its bread
measured up in the future however one important question has been left unanswered have the six
inch subs been checked to see if they measure up service please explain to me what the heck
you were thinking out there insulting a customer like that many companies like to tell the public
about the core values guiding their businesses and subway is no exception from the beginning one of
subway's core values has been to provide service that is above and beyond the basic level provided
by fast food chains this may be subway's intention but some people might disagree with how successful
subway has been at implementing this core value it's hard to maintain an exceptional level of
service when the worldwide chain is making more than thousand sandwiches every minute problem is
you trying to live two different lives so although this may be the goal many observers would agree
that it has fallen short in its efforts to deliver on this core value on the internet site customer
service scoreboard subway gets an embarrassing 27 out of 200 rating perhaps even more damning is the
fact that 95 percent of user comments about subway are negative customers often describe
subway employees as rude and down making all those sandwiches in a reasonable amount of time must be
hard work but working any fast food job is tough all over you don't see this level of negativity
with many of the other fast food chains customers and employees interact to build the sandwiches
so maybe this causes friction and leads to the negativity is eating at subway healthy i can't lie
it would be a pretty big lie if eating at subway turned out not to be healthy because the fast food
chain's entire marketing pitch is that it's the healthier alternative to the usual burger joints
depending on what you order at subway it could be healthy or it could be loaded with fattened
calories a turkey breast sub with vegetables and no fatty sauces would be a very good choice on the
other hand the tuna sub which is a loaded with mayonnaise will add on about 50 grams of fat
and a bunch of calories you'll find this amount of fat and giant hamburgers like mcdonald's big mac
clearly the tuna sub is not a smart choice but is this one of the big lies subway told customers
your sandwich sir if subway only had options like the tuna sub it would be in trouble but
the healthy subs that you can actually order lets the fast food chain off the hook subway might be
off the hook but not completely out of the woods one study showed that the average mcdonald's meal
totals over just 1 000 calories while a subway meal averages 955 calories this seems damning
but in the end it comes down to choice customers can choose a big mac and fries or the tuna sub
laden with mayonnaise however they can also get a sub filled with lean meats and vegetables so
eating healthy at subway is mostly up to you pick out another great video just tap or click
