i went to subway for lunch today. first time i've been there in, geez, five years or so. and guess what, they now have
  • five types of bread
  • varieties of cheese
what happened to the "wheat or white" and bland white cheese i knew and loved? since when do i have to make difficult decisions about parmesan oregano bread vs. italian cheddar and herb bread. sheesh! i dunno! and that enticing array of cheeses? eek! i just want that tasteless white stuff. is that so much to ask for? so i got cheddar cheese (in a moment of panic, presented with multiple and unknown options, i went with the one selection i was sure they had) veggie sub on wheat. phew. just like old times. sniff. i got a bag of Lays Baked Chips and a unreasonably massive diet coke. the coke lasted for an entire 2 hr drive.

at any rate, bacon wrapped summer is going well. i'm sort of burnt out on bacon, though. the bacon doughnuts, bacon-wrapped asparagus bundles and bacon&egg breakfast all within, uh, two day seems to have maxed me out on the tasty little savory morsels. hopefully after a short break, i'll be ready for round two. the bacon doughnuts, from VooDoo Doughnut in Portland, delivered to Eugene by my very special bacon-pushing friend, her sister and her brother-in-law, was much much better than i'd expected. with its maple frosting, it reminded me vaguely of the Pancake Sandwich, my all-time favorite breakfast ever and for always.

i am between 4th of july bbqs....and at the one i just came from (the buli) there was talk of that distinct subway smell. what do you think causes it? the cheese? the onions?

i'm serious. i'm really curious.

i eat at subway once a week with my repetitive food friend Mike. all the breads taste the same - like ass - so you don't have to worry about making the choice. just pick whichever one is closest to you.

hmmmmm, cindym. do you think the unique subway smell is from the ass-y bread? perhaps you and repetitive mike could do some sniffing around on your next visit and share your thoughts.
