Best and Worst Food at Subway

Subway is one of the largest chain restaurant in the world. Chances are, you have probably eaten at Subway. If you are going to eat at Subway, I think it’s important to know which foods are the best or the worst.

Best Food at Subway

The salad  listed below is the best choice at Subway since the bread they use (even the 9 grain!) has over 50 ingredients that are not good for you (read my final thoughts below). However, I thought I’d at least provide the best sandwich that Subway has to offer. Both don’t have meat or cheese because trust me…you don’t want to have Subway’s meats or cheeses (again, read my final thoughts below in the final paragraph).

Is Subway Healthy?

Most people think that Subway is super healthy for you. With slogans like “Eat Fresh” and advertisements showing a man with an amazing weight loss story, it’s easy to get fooled about Subway’s healthy promise. However, I have come to learn that just about everything from Subway is super processed – which means their bread, cheese, meats, etc. have a lot of additives, artificial ingredients, processed sugars, GMO ingredients, MSG, and other sketchy ingredients like azodicarbonamide – which is an ingredient that has been banned in other countries!

Bottom Line: In your every day normal circumstances…skip Subway and go home and make yourself some REAL FOOD.
