You must not have a Jersey Mike's nearby, you unfortunate souls. It's the "In n' Out" of sub sandwich chains.
For anyone in the Eastern PA-New Jersey area...none can do a better hoag than Wawa. Unless of course, you go to Sheetz, where you can order your sandwich from the pump.
Jimmy Johns is always preferred. I miss Jersey Mikes. We also have Lenny's which is Jersey Mikes autistic little brother.
Yeah, I just need it to break up the monotony of other fast food joints. I need to just start cooking more, but cooking for 1 blows major balls. Especially after a shit day at work. And when you basically work from home I like to just get out of the office for 20 minutes.
Quiznos is alright, but the freshness of JJ's is unrivaled. I will eat Quiznos in a bind, but if there is a grocery store in the area, I would rather get a sub from the deli counter.
I'd never even heard of Jimmy John's before I went to my cousin's wedding in Buffalo last summer. Holy crap is that good drunk food.
We have both Jimmy Johns and Jersey Mike's here, and I'll take Mike's any day. Non-chain, there is a place in a neighboring town called Cero's Heroes. Boar's Head cold cuts, fantastic bread, and homemade red pepper relish. But I still miss the kosher delis of NY:
A footlong tuna salad sandwich has 1060 calories, 60 grams of fat, and 1660 mg of sodium. And this is what our country thinks is healthy. It's hardly even food.
If you want to be a queer and eat a foot long veggie sub, then yeah, you'll lose some weight. But, people consume more at Subway on average than at other restaurants. "Health halo." If you use a couple buzzwords, people will overlook obvious facts, like a pound of bread stuffed with mayo is not healthy. Throw in the word "tuna" though, and people assume it's okay to get a bag of doritos too, just to make it a "meal." Grilled chicken club at McAlister's has 1000 calories, 56 grams of fat, and over 2000 mg of sodium. But hey, "grilled" and "chicken," those words sound healthy. "Reduced sodium" tends to mean "reduced from the amount that would fucking kill you, but still higher than you can eat if you need a low sodium diet, or plan to ever have a potato chip again." Anyways, rant over. Back to my Magic Hat Wacko Summer. It's colored with beet juice, so it's extra nutritious!
I fucking hate sandwiches. Sliced bread is the worst invention ever. Ever look at the nutrition facts on bread, meat, and cheese? Forget healthy, it's damn near impossible to make a sandwich that doesn't look like it will send you to an early grave. Now, there are some burgers, pulled pork sandwiches, turkey clubs, corned beef, and pastrami creations out there that are delicious, but I'd really rather do away with sliced bread if it meant every person was permanently 5 pounds lighter. Nothing tastes as good as banging a hot girl feels.
I've been known from time to time to take cell phone pictures of my shit and send it to a few of my buddies along with a witty caption. A few of the women here are gonna freak out over this, but fuck all of you, it's hilarious. Anyways, a couple of weeks ago I had an extraordinarily long turd, so I sent it out with the caption, "$5 foot long". Now every time I see a $5 foot long ad I think of my giant dump.
Would you let her make you a sandwich after? Have you ever felt the sense of wonderment when a girl makes you a post-coital sandwich?
I'm all for a good sandwich now and again, but fuck anyone who says "sammich" and thinks it is inherently funny. It was played out after the first five times I heard it.
