I enjoy their Jimmy Mustard, but they are so unwilling to put it on anything. you have to ask for it twice and then specifically tell them "no, i didn't mean Dijon. I want you to open that jar of jimmy mustard and put it on my fucking sandwich you lazy clown"

Jimmy mustard? ...that is essentially asking a 16 year old to bust a nut on your sandwich.

I've always liked their bread, but not their cold cuts.

If I could get Jimmy's bread with Jersey Mikes' cold cuts I'd be a happy man

I've been on a real Which Wich kick lately but JJ is close to work and quick so it's fine.


Anyway this thread was about how terrible Mayo is more than the establishment

I've probably eaten at several hundred different Subways around the US and in the Caribbean during my various travels, and the quality and service have been amazingly consistent.

My current list would be: Harris Teeter > Which Which = Jimmy John's > Firehouse >> Quiznos >> Subway

Firehouse used to be my #2 but they have fallen off quite a bit over recent years. or at least the one i go to has.

I don't know that i've had Jersey Mike's, honestly. Was that what was in the atrium back in the day? If so that shit was garbage, put it below quiznos

Wasn't it a Lil Dino's in the atrium? And yes...it was pretty garbage.

My in-laws love Jersey Mikes for some odd-reason...so we've had it a couple times since they moved down here. It's good, but I prefer Jimmy Johns.

Lil' Dinos was in the atrium back in the day.

I did like going to the one at the student center that had hot subs and waffle fries.

And I don't mind Jimmy John's, it's better than subway but jersey mikes (and which wich) are a lot better.

For the price it's hard to beat Jimmy John's.

And all the Teeters I go to these days have let the quality of their bread slip.

My beef with them is the product varies wildly depending on the store and who's making it. What do you all order there? Plus the bread to ingredient ratio is a way too high for me. That's one place Jimmy John's shines, especially when you select the "Take bread out" option

Naw that was lil Dinos. Was cheap and subpar, but I'd definitely put it over Subway.

Give it a shot. It's more than your Teeter special of the day but for good reason Order it "Mike's Way' get the pepper relish too.

^yeah HT's product varies greatly. I understand that they're not hiring geniuses to work the counter, but one would think that being able to put together a good sandwich is something that even the dumbest of simpletons can master.

If I want a ton of meat I ask for the Italian. If I don't want a "huge" footlong I'll get meatball sub (b/c I keep that one basic - no veggies). Feeling "healthy" (lol) grilled chicken.

I thought Jimmy John's was the cheapest of all the sub places (save Subway)? I know they vary with locations, but even the most expensive JJ's is cheaper than every place except for maybe Subway (I wouldn't know the price of Subway since I haven't eaten their in 10 years...I just feel like they're the cheapest).

WTF are you talking about? Jimmy Johns is cheaper than Subway, and nowhere close to Jersey Mike's prices.

Subway Italian
6" - $4.75
12" - $7.75

JJ Vito
8" - $5
"Giant" 8" (twice meat and cheese) - $6.50

Promotions really set Subway apart on the price front though with their $5-$6 footlongs and "Sub of the day." Today it's a footlong Italian BMT for $6 or a 6" for $3.50.

Jersey Mike's Italian
Mini (4.5") - $6.25
Regular (7.5") - $8.65
Giant (15") - $14.65

So what about that new racist Subway commercial for their Italian sub?

^^he said "order", so I assume he's including delivery fees?

^^^Are you saying that the subs from the grocery store "Sprouts" aren't good? Or you don't like alfalfa sprouts?

I thought you had to specifically ask for sprouts at Jimmy John's, especially after they stopped using them altogether for a while a couple years ago after the sprouts/e coli scare.

^^^Yeah I think that commercial is pretty insulting.

^^I've never had a sub from JJ that had sprouts on it. I didn't know that was even an option with them.

as an aside, I love sprouts. You can add them to just about anything without even noticing.

Ha...great point.

I like the taste and texture of sprouts...personally. I try and put them on all of my house-made deli sandwiches if I can remember to buy it.

Sprouts are loaded with nutrients, so that's one big reason why. And depending on the food type and sprout type they can add a little crunch and/or texture.

Yes, the point is that they're very healthy for what they are.
