Subway Restaurants

This afternoon I went to the mall with my mom so she can look at the puppies in the pet store.  She always loves to go pet them, and hold them, and that always makes her feel good.  Afterward, we headed to the food court, and after long thought, I made a decision on eating at Subway.  I've been eating Subway's subs since I first started back in Costa Mesa, CA almost 20 years ago.  But, I always get a little apprehensive, and even a little anxiety when I go up to their counter when people are in front of me.  I know this sounds strange, but whenever the staff is helping other people with their orders, I always watch them with the knives they use to cut the sandwiches in half.  Call me crazy, but whenever I see them NOT clean the knife, I walk away from the counter and go some place else.  I've already had the unfortunate instance where the knife they use WASN'T cleaned (or at least wiped clean with a napkin), and I ended up with a sandwich that had icky stuff on it (juice from the tomatoes, or the liquid stuff like mustard, mayonnaise, dressing, etc.  I always had to somehow go AROUND those spots if the knife wasn't cleaned.

But luckily, this visit was a pleasant one as I watched carefully how they cleaned the knife, then I was comfortable to make my order.  Who knew that such a little thing can cause so much anxiety?  Go figure!

Today's Menu!

Lunch - Subway ham and american cheese (plain) on Parmesan Oregano bread!  w/ Dr. Pepper  (Yummy!)

Dinner - Pizza Night on Fridays, so it was a pepperoni pizza w/ extra cheese!  (Tombstone Frozen Pizzas are DA BOMB if done right)

Once again, no breakfast, and no snacks for today.

  1. I know exactly how you feel. I avoid those kinds of places during rush lunch hour because they don't change their gloves. If I am with my husband he always lets me put my order in first since I get turkey on white with lettuce only. He gets onions, peppers...all kinds of stuff. If he orders before me one of those peppers or onions ALWAYS end up on my sandwich...ruins the whole thing & I can't eat it.
