    My experience with Subway is they have many new franchise owners who do not adhere to North American safe food handling practices.

    I wish these new truck stops that open would try something else besides subway. Jimmy John's, Firehouse Subs, Jersey Mike's... Anything besides Subway

    Jimmy John's is awesome. Better bread, fresh ingredients, and they never try to pass off tomato slices with the nasty green core.

    They knew about Jared's 'proclivities' in 2008.

    They did NOTHING.

    Since that came to light, I've never stepped into a Subway and never will again. They can't go under soon enough.

    What s even worse when you have 2 or 3 truck stops at the same exit and they all have a Subway. Not to mention, there may be another Subway a mile up the road in town

    I pretty much stopped going to our local subway. Last year things changed with the food products. The bread too. Then the flies showed up. It's time to find something else.

    We have a hardees near town over yonder in the county that does very good work in food prep etc. But cannot wait for the new Huddle House to be built according to rumors maybe on 64 between 67 and Conway. If that happens and they provide truck parking, it's really going to be awesome.

    I think the only good thing about Subway is when I used to haul their loads, they paid for the unloading
