Comments on: Why Does Subway Not Understand Ripe Tomatoes? http://justinlovesfood.com/2009/11/05/why-does-subway-not-understand-ripe-tomatoes/ "For me, eating is a lifestyle that I take breaks from."

I always thought Subway was all about them making a sub how you like it but I do admit it is hard when the person behind the counter is rushing (even when you are the only one there) and doesn't really care that they are smashing your sub (my pet peeve with them). <br><br>And whats this reading a book about In-N-Out!? Are you becoming a fan? ; ) Well I think I have to put that book on my to read list as it sounds interesting. I just found out the other day In-N-Out doesn't own freezers, microwaves or hot lamps as they don't believe in them. Gotta love any place who values freshness.

They talk about this directly. Back when they were starting up, there was a split between the founders. One wanted to go fast and cheaper and the other wanted to stick at their prices and with the better quality. <br><br>The guy who stuck with the better quality and the existing prices kept the chain and look where they are. It's sad when companies making that move incorrectly. Doug, you should check out this book on the history of In-n-Out. They talk about this directly.

They have improved over the "everything looks like bologna years" but it still isn't good. <br><br>My pet peeve has to do with buffet style places, can't stand them. I don't really have a reason but something about a sneeze guard playing by the pound just turns me away. Well you nailed it with “it's cheap too”
