No! I just posted that to show you how misleading some of Subway is. If you are out and need to get fast food Subway is better than most choices. But it isn't that great.

If you are gonna get a sub, get one on Jared's list. All these have 6 grams of fat or less (for the six inch version) and are around 300-400 calories. They are definitly a lesser evil than McDonald's, but they still aren't great. The protein is kind of low. Probablly, because Subway skimps on their meat. You can get double meat, but that's a few dollars more.

A salad would be the best choice. Unfortuantly Subway charges almost $2 to turn any sub into a salad. Why the hell it costs them $2 to take away the bread and add a little more lettuce is beyond me.

I was reading an article that graded various types of foods. They were given letter grades from A to F. The idea is to get as many A and B foods as possible and to avoid most (if not all D and F) foods. One of the 'A' foods was 100% Whole Wheat Bread. Other types of bread were given a 'D'. Which is the main reason why I am giving up Subway until they introduce a whole wheat bread. Just as well, its pricey and I'll save some cash.

As for the not being able to edit until 50 posts thing.... Kinda silly, but whatever. I wasn't doing a 'drive-by'. I usually forget to mention something or make some sort of mistake. I'm not one to post on forums just to up my post-count.
