    super sweetened bread

    Fun fact: it’s so sweetened that the Supreme Court of Ireland (SCOI is a fun acronym) reclassified it as cake.

    Also, Subway chicken is only 50% chicken.

    To find out what the other 50% is, listen to the latest episode of my podcast Subway Exposure!

    Just kidding, I don’t have a podcast. It’s soybeans.

      It’s soybeans.

      If that’s true I really wish they’d just start offering a tofu option at Subway so I don’t just have to get vegetables in bread lol

        Was it Taco Bell people were complaining that the meat filling isn’t ground all ground beef? I was like sweet I’d rather it be seasoned veggie delight anyway. Meat quality is not the draw of Taco Bell.

          Yea. Taco Bell Seasoned meat has been a seasoned freeze-dried tofu and beef blend for decades now.

              All I know is they probably add a lot of textured vegetable protein to the mix to save money, since it comes in bags and isn’t made in-store.

              I don’t trust their labels all too much because it’s all too even to be natural.

          Probably them too but my memory is that Jack in the box tacos were soy, not sure if that’s true, but it sounded right for the two tacos / $1 back in the day.

        They used to have a veggie patty. It was so bad, I regretted not just getting vegetables in bread.

        That was just a rumor. Not that it isnt disgusting. I used to like it until i got a double meat version ans wondered wtf this pasty garbage was in my mouth. Disgusting!

      They ruled that, for tax purposes, it counts as a confectionary because of the high sugar content. They did not rule that it is literally cake.

          To me, it’s mainly gluten content. Cake is fluffy while bread is more chewy. You can have sweet breads and savoury breads. I imagine you can have savoury cakes too, but I’ve never had so I don’t know how good that would be.

      I really don’t like subway, but they do have new chicken. Their old stuff was clearly not chicken. Their new stuff actually looks like chicken so I’m pretty sure the figure you are quoting is their old shit chicken

        I WAS going for that double entendre in order to make my imaginary podcast as badly named as possible, yes 😁
