i hope they paid the teen back in delicious iron-rich sandwiches.

i'm always down for a for a good old fashioned free footlong in my gullet.

Wait, what's wrong with the article?
I'm sure they're referring to the dough being made, not baked, bc they bake in store.

I always thought Subway's bread was baked in the actual restaurants, not at some cereal factory...

Before the time of meelion-dollar-lawsuits, this would have been harmlessly funny and quickly refunded. Get over it, America. If you want absolute perfection, do it yourself. ...in which case, it'll be your own mistakes you deal with.

i'm sure the sandwich scientists at subway laboratories will have this figured out in no time

The dough is extruded at Random Cereal Factory, then shipped frozen. The sandwich monkeys bake the frozen dough in-house.

How do you not notice that at some point when you're making the sandwich, baking the bread, flipping the bread, retarding (heh) the bread, etc.

//wouldn't be surprised if it was off something in the store itself

That would improve the taste of the last tuna sammy I had from them

It's just their promotional Iron Man sub.

I heard iron is an important ingredient, specially on the rag

You try to give someone a little something extra and all they do is complain.

For a minute I thought this was going to be able that website that somehow got on the web usage logs here at work.

/boy was I relieved.

As a farker who chose his nickname based on the super hero, I wholly agree. What better way to excite people about the metal clad super hero than to lodge pieces of iron shrapnel into your body?

Yay, Subway!

Iron helps us play!

Sandwich Artist, LMAO!

It's almost as good as "custodial supervisor"

More testicles mean more iron.

I got your footlong right here, Ferrousfellow. ;-)

yummy:


one time i got a rusty sewing needle in my french bread at Albertson's. when i took it back to the store the regional bakery director happened to be there. they gave us a substantial gift card. i told them i wanted an answer and they kept updating me. they couldnt figure out how it was baked into the bread and still passed through the metal detector unknown. someone had to have sabotaged it and then removed the exact loaf after it came out of the oven, bypassed the metal detector, then put it back in the assembly line for packaging. when they tested the needle at the factory, it set off the metal detector alarm very strongly. they concluded it may have been a purposeful act, but it was unsolved in the end. got the 500 dollar gift card though. that was lots of beer.

Several years ago I got a Blizzard at Dairy Queen and bit down into a bolt. I looked through and also found a washer and wingnut. I called the store, they looked at their machines and noticed the missing parts, apologized and gave me and my buddies some free Blizzards. Maybe I should have pressed harder at gotten a $500 giftcard like reddsharkk.

Sandwich Artists? So if I pay them a few bucks, they'll make my sub like H.R. Geiger?

No, dude...think "I can pee stick figures in snow!" type artists.

Wait, he just returned the sandwich to the store? No million dollar lawsuits? What is the world coming to these days?

no ironic tag?

For the prices Subway charges, you'd goddamn well better get free shiat in your sandwich.

I once had a part of a rubber glove (the finger) on my sandwich. It looked like a condom for asians or something. Good thing I always look first before eating. In the end I smeared that thing straight into the face of the manager...who remained surprisingly calm and just let me head off...gross though!

I thought I'd found a turd in my Subway meatball sandwich, but it was just a meatball.

Subway Sandwiches..

May contain nuts...and bolts.

Shenanigans,

with the bolt that visible they would have seen it while the sandwich was being made, which happens right in front of them.

Right, because Subway goons aren't just potheads or lazy college students. They are "Sandwich Artists".

Baking bread. Serious business.

top.bullfrog: Om nom nom nomow!

FIFY

Apparently I am a pushover. Twice people dining with me have had machine parts in their food, once a part of the salad washer in a taco salad at On the Border, and once part of the warming light at Olive Garden. (I don't pick the restaurants). In both cases I was with large groups, and only got comped for the entrees affected. I didn't make a big deal about it, but was pretty pissed.

Don't eat at either anymore, but only partly because of these instances.

Subway so sucks, they need this kink of publicity.

I haven't been in a Subway since I saw some kind of bugs on display with the food... well they weren't actually on display I guess, since they were crawling around.

This!

As the guy at the bread factory that puts the bolts in the bread to hold the loaves together, I'm really getting a kick out of these replies.

I found a bolt in my Cheetos once during highschool, covered in fake cheese. I ate the rest of the Cheetos, threw everything away, and thought "how strange!" What's the point of doing an investigation? Stuff falls in stuff. Rip it out! Live your life! Don't eat the bolt!

"it's an imperfect world. Screws fall out all the time"

Best one I had was a Tony Roma's. Ordered a plate of ribs with the steamed veg , and as I was eating the veg I noticed a small colored sticker with the 'WED' on it stuck to the plate.

I covered the sticker back up, called the waitress over, and asked her what day it was. I then showed her the sticker and said, 'I guess this is fresh, then?" She sure did look surprised.

I told her it was no big deal, but she insisted on sending the manager out. Apparently the sticker came off the container they had the prepared food in and wound up on the plate. Got a free desert for that.

I waited a while for a restaurant on a hot day, and when we got in we all ordered water right away. I downed mine and knocked back the ice as well (I love ice cubes). Several of my friends downed their water as well. One friend was about to start drinking hers, but noticed the ice looked different than mine.

Some idiot in the kitchen had broken a glass, and hadn't bothered to check that shards of glass ended up in nearby glasses. The ice cubes in hers were big chunks of ice & glass.

The nine of us got free meals.
