The latter.

Did anyone here work at Subway in their younger years? Would you care to elaborate on the tuna practices (or any other interesting tidbits)?

I didn't, but a friend that owns a little deli shop fists his tuna

That's probably because they cook everything ahead of time and then just heat it up.

Subway's meat is bottom of the barrel, that's just a known fact. All their deli meats are turkey based and absolutely loaded with sodium.

However, I can't see the need to 'cut' their tuna with anything considering a tin of tuna is cheaper than a can of cat food at this point.

Unless they're mixing it with potted meat, which is the cheapest food on Earth next to ramen noodles. I guess I could see that.

"Fake" fish (cheaper fish sold as something more expensive) is apparently fairly common in restaurants and grocery stores.

For years, Long John Silvers and Red Lobster were selling "lobster" that was really langostino, which is also known as a squat lobster, but actually isn't a lobster. Now they have to call it "langostino lobster," which is still misleading since it really isn't lobster.

But it wasn't a rock...

Just call it Toona and move on. Hell, a lot of the catfish you get in restaurants isn't catfish.

Subway Tuna has a distinct smell. Can anyone guess what it smells similar too? Here's a clue....

I smell subway poontang

Anyone who eats at Subway because they think their subs are good has no taste.

Is that what you ate growing up in England?

I remember learning a few years ago (from a Subway corporate exec…) that their “ham” products are actually just turkey dyed with food coloring. For legal reasons, they do contain like 1% ham… but they are 95% turkey.

My old “go to” on the rare occasion I visited Subway prior to that news was a turkey and ham sandwich, now I just get turkey. I’ve got no issue with turkey, but the fact that it was fake ham really bothered me.

Agree that subway is sh*t, but I’ll pick them over McDonalds on a road trip in small town America when nothing else is available.

No. In no particular order:

Marmite on toast
Eggy Soldiers
Shepard's Pie
Fisherman's Pie
Fish and Chips
Pickled Onions

Those are the standouts.
