Subway has constant contamination outbreaks causing waves of food poisoning like every year. They killed someone in the UK. McDonald's literally just killed someone with bad quarter pounders.
I got food poisoning from subway once and have never had it since. Being concerned about whether it looks like the advertisement is gone, we're back to having to be concerned about whether you could die from eating something. Isn't it nice, I feel far more connected to the traditional ways before germ theory.
To add context, the CDC announced the cause to be the yellow onions [1] in the quarter pounders; McDonalds stopped serving onions in their quarter pounders and stopped sourcing onions from that supplier facility "indefinitely" (Taylor Farms in Colorado Springs) [2].
(Edit: grammar)
Subway has the lowest cost to enter a franchise, so it attracts a lot of people that can't really afford a better brand. So everything goes to the lowest bidder, so everything is shit.
At the far opposite end of that scale is Chik-Fil-A, which is the hardest to get into and has much stricter standards about everything, and even treats their employees comparatively well for a fast food joint. They just also support evangelical Christian anti-LGBT stuff, which is the biggest complaint against them.
Yea it's a deal breaker for me
Are health inspections on a state level? I think they are.
In California the rules seem different in every county, or at least the rating systems. (I’m no expert I just eat out sometimes.)
