Comments on: Subway Breakfast http://nealo.com/2010/06/07/subway-breakfast/ a collection of editorial cartoons by neal obermeyer Sun, 05 Sep 2010 15:19:49 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.6.5 By: Dominique http://nealo.com/2010/06/07/subway-breakfast/comment-page-1/#comment-275753 Sun, 05 Sep 2010 15:19:49 +0000 http://nealo.com/?p=3202#comment-275753 “If you don’t mind seeing a plastic-gloved-employee pull your pre-cooked egg out of a plastic bin suspended over hot water…”

Now that really paints a vivid picture. Yes, I do mind. If it’s precooked it probably comes from a precooked egg patty factory. And with the profit motive that drives all businesses, good chance that precooked egg patty has things added to it to keep it edible for a long period of time, maybe even months, and/or fillers, binders, and air to make for additional volume or weight.

And a six inch mini loaf of squishy Subway bread with a precooked egg patty inside it for breakfast? No way! Real sirloin or denver cut costs ~$4.99/lb to ~$5.29/lb. in these parts. A third pound of either with two real eggs made however you like costs less when made at home than anything Subway offers for breakfast. And it’s so much better.

The whole concept of a breakfast ‘sandwich’ is absurd to begin with. Maybe that’s the secret – all that obnoxious breakfast sandwich advertising from McDonalds, Dunkin, and now Subway activates the reptilian part of the brain which still says, “Caveman Og must eat with hands, has no knife, fork, spoon. And Og shovel in food faster when Og eat with hands anyways. Cause bigger caveman might come anytime, take food away from Og. Or leopard chase Og away from food before Og full. Oooooo! Breakfast sandwich! Make easy for Og to eat breakfast with hands. And faster – in case bigger caveman or leopard come!”

While we’re requesting food sampling…. I think it’s time you double down, Neal. (And by that, I mean that ridiculous double down sandwich from KFC.)
