The refresh needs to include a living wage and benefits for employees.

"The one thing we did not touch is our tuna" Well that's a good thing. No one should be touching that till they can figure out what it is.

This is literally an 8 minute ad for Subway.

Imagine being the “largest restaurant chain in the world” and needing to bring in MORE/NEW customers?!! Maybe try focusing on QUALITY over QUANTITY

Me neither - I wouldn't have a clue...

"Bread products" are not bread. A couple of years ago, they were taken to task because their "Whole Wheat" buns were just coloured buns, not whole wheat.

I don't think the line "The one thing we did not touch is our tuna" is going to play they way they intended.

[whiskeybuilder]

Technically he's correct. Nobody at subway has ever touched actual tuna.

[ashleybrown]

As someone who worked there when he was younger you don't want to touch their tuna either.

Are you bringing Jared back to promote your new kids menu?

When I worked at subway I was told to slice the bag of tuna with a bread knife since their scissors were dirty... The pull of the dull knife changed direction of the cut which resulted in me slicing my own finger to the point I was pouring out blood... Staff and guests said I needed ER... Subway manager said it'd be considered a walk out. I stayed to avoid being fired... I bled thru bandaids, constantly which would show blood inside of the gloves I'd use to make sandwiches. The cut wouldn't clot. I ended up quitting shortly afterwards when the same person cursed at me in front of guests demanding I work when I was off the floor and was clocked out wrapping up my dishes. Looking back at it now.. Wow... I was so young and naive. I should have sued.

“We spent millions on food innovation and investing in our ingredients.”

Translation: Brad the intern was forced to actually eat a sandwich and he threw up.

I'm just here to remind you all about the January 6th insurrection. Have a blessed day.

Their tuna is 50% salt, 40% mayo and it tastes like shark vomit .

"The one thing we should have touched was our tuna." There, fixed your statement for you Mr Subway.

[bonsaitomato]

Would the new ingredient at Subway be bologna, they seem to be serving a lot of it in this interview.

‘Subway, our meat is almost 70% pure’

"Please go to our web site where we tell you it IS tuna."

[jameslucop]

He doesn’t look very healthy. “Our bread products” - does he mean the bread products that contain so much sugar that they’re actually classed as cake?

The cost increases will be passed on to the consumers and not the executives/share holders.
Thank you.
