Those are good too, they have a pretty strict selection what you can get though.

I'll turn this rave into a rant...

The cheapasses that are Chartwell's Catering and St. Louis University refuse to recognize the $5 footlong. At least they finally got a toaster oven. Theirs has been broken for MORE THAN A YEAR NOW!

Subway is pretty much the epitome of "meh" to me. I never eat there and think "wow that was good" it's more like "well, I'm not hungry anymore." All of their meats, cheese, bread and toppings just seem bland to me. And the phrase "a little bit of..." doesn't ever seem to register. I think they are told to put half a head of lettuce on each sandwich just to make them look filling. The $5 deal is the only reason they ever get me in the door.

That's because lettuce is cheap. I get the exact opposite problem when I ask for shredded cheese.

This nails it. You'll never walk away from a Subway thinking it was a tasty sandwich. It's literally "meh" filler food.
