i <3 subway...the subway sandwhich with turkey/chicken/beef...phowar!!

 

[PardonTheWait]

Closing 25 branches isn't really a big deal when you consider there's seven branches in my medium-sized town!

Goddamned advertising getting stuck in my teeth when I'm chewing on a footlong meatball on herb & cheese with double cheese, bacon, pepper, parmesan and a little honey mustard...

The end ? Microsoft will probably go bust before McD's. But i do think grown ups slowly realise how unhealthy they are, i feel guilty after having one and never satisfied. Where I used to love them when i was little.

It would help Mac Donalds' cause a great deal if they started to serve food.

I have learnt not say no to the cheese in subway, it just glues the rest of the sub to the top of your mouth. Can't say I would be sad to see my Maccy D's close ... until my next hang over requires a cheese burger.

Subway is great but not everywhere. Sometimes I find myself wondering into a McDonalds (double quarter pounder with cheese ***).

 

[Psyk]

25 down only another 1,225 to go. It seems fairly insignificant when you consider the amount of MaccyD's there are around the place.

Anyway BK>McD

lol @ is uk noticing its unhealthy - Hey! blair wanted to be like the USA, now enjoy its benefits!! Who was it now......some 16 year old girl was the first person in the uk to get diabetes from being fat - in america theyd probably give you an award!

 

[Lopéz]

They are being sensible and trimming excess unprofitable stores like any level-headed profit minded company should be. Most cities have too many McDonalds branches, it is not good policy to have two quiet branches instead of one busy one.

 

[Steedie]

Subway 4tw!

i'm not surprised at this news to be honest, they've got worse for years, serving more and more crap food and then to top it off their recent efforts to be healthy with the salads and stuff. Its daft

 

[panthro]

Wokingham has just had a subway spring up out of nowhere. But I think it may have been to compensate for the Burger King getting burnt down karma!!

Yeah you're such a sell out if you eat McDonalds.

 

[Mad old tory]

Pret is far superior to Mcdonalds and Subway, EAT isn't bad either. Fast food doesn't have to be bad for you

 

[PardonTheWait]

They did a comparative thinger and the stuff on Pret's menu was just as bad as McDonalds and sometime worse for calories.

So it would seem it does have to be bad for you.
