The Number 87 or Why Subway is the Right Way
There’s so much to be said about Subway. They need no introduction. They are the Jamie Oliver of fast food. They are GOOD. Well this post will be fun.
While doing my research, I didn’t really find much you don’t already know. Or anything that fascinating, as a matter of fact. Great food, healthy ingredients… The sub wasn’t invented by the Mayans. Their logo doesn’t have a hidden satanic meaning. And Subway, spelled backwards is Yawbus. Good food is boring.
But let me try and entertain you, anyhow.
Good food is boring?
The founder of Subway only started it off with $1000. How cool is that? Mr. Fred de Luca should be named entrepreneur of the century. Maybe after a few other stars, like Mark Zuckerberg, my idol. And the arrogant guy from Bright Eyes. And Nabokov. And my ex-biology teacher, Flemming.
But anyway. Subway is pretty global. I mean, REALLY global. It has restaurants all over the world, in 87 countries, to be more precise. The number 87 is said to be “the meaning of the universe”-I wonder if the Subway people know that. They could do a pretty good campaign with it, I suppose. Not so much in Australia though, where it is considered the “devil’s number”. Deep (weird) stuff, huh. I think I should make a cheap version of “The Number 23” with Jim Carrey. Guess what I’d call it…
Not to turn this post into some numerical superstitious blabber, but I HAVE to tell you about francium, while I’m on the 87 subject. With atomic number 87, francium was the last element to be discovered (so far). It is also the second rarest naturally occurring element. Rare is cool. But let me tell you what’s also rare: a dissatisfied Subway customer.
Last week, I was tricked by the shiny yellow/green signs myself, and entered the world of healthier fast food. After spending around 20 minutes deciding on what I wanted, I went for the sub of the day, which was the Italian meatballs sub. I wasn’t really impressed (maybe just not that hungry), but hey-I actually got it for free. After my Swedish credit card being declined twice, the Good Man behind the counter gave it to me with an encouraging wink. It was a good night.
You, my dearest reader, wouldn’t have to rely on luck to get good food for a good price. Because we’re here. And we give you unbeatable deals, everyday.
Like the one today. I mean…come on. Who can POSSIBLY beat a deal on a full Subway Menu for £2.99? Not to mention, Subway NEVER really do offers like this. But they like us, and guess what: we like them!
You can get the deal here.
