"Italian B.M.T. for you!" Topic

You were asked – TMP link

Which sandwiches from the Subway standard menu do you prefer?

17% said "Italian B.M.T."
16% said "Spicy Italian"
14% said "Meatball Marinara"

I'll pass on all three…..give me tuna, or give me another place to go eat….

None of them.

Too much bread, not enough meat, and overpriced, generally for what you get.

Their fresh-baked bread used to be good, but don't know if they still do that.

This is the only sandwich shop at which I've eaten, where I go away hungry, so stopped patronizing them.

Ads on TV look great, like for other joints, but the reality is shocking. They make the smallest meatballs I've ever seen for a sandwich. Last sandwich I bought from them, for $3.00 USD, which sounded like a deal, but wasn't, since the meatballs were smaller than ping-pong balls, and were rather sparse on a 6" sub.

I do see how Jared lost all that weight though – a small salad on a roll is a pretty low-cal diet.

Whoa !!!! Whoa !!! Are we singling out the "cuisine" of a certain ethnicity ?!?!?!?

Sounds like a bunch of fascist to me !!!

Roast chicken….cheese…lettuce….onioms…pockles….black olives….hot peppers..mayo and bbq sauce

What ethnic group is that, American Red-neck?

BTW, I am a Certified American Red-neck so I can say that, and, as a licensed Granpa, I like whatever my two grandsons don't finish.

Well I'm @ 80% Italian according to my DNA test. But I don't think I've ever heard anyone call an Italian a Red-neck, AFAIK.

Of course have heard and been called other things …

Naw, if you were born here, you're American, period. You may be an American of Italian ancestry. I can trace my ancestry back to a lost tribe of wandering Swedes with no sense of direction who were heading for Florida to escape the cold Wisconsin winters and ended up in Minnesota.

Of course I'm an "Italian-American". My people didn't come from the old country until about the early 1900s.

But primarily I am an American. However historically many who emigrated to the US were not always "accepted" initially. E.g. many Italians as well as many other nationalities/ethnicities were shunned, abused, discriminated against, etc.

And in some cases it still remains. But again, both my Father and I were "born in the USA". And served in the US ARMY Infantry, etc. "Proud to be an American!"

Then you should be an American-Italian shouldn't you?
Historically everyone who emigrated after the Revolution had assimilation issues, but they did, we did. My family, as best as we can determine, came over sometime in the early or mid 1800s because we have a number of Civil War veterans in the family tree.

And BTW, a big THANK YOU, to you and your father for your service.

Then you should be an American-Italian shouldn't you?

Either way !

And Thank you !

Hey, the Italian BMT would be your choice then?

Of course ! Or Meatball Sub !

Stop it! you're making me hungry, again.

Me Too !!!!
