Western Egg & Cheese is Subway’s $5 Footlong for July

For the past few months, Subway has had a serious poultry boner for its Oven Roasted Chicken sandwich, serious enough to feature it as its $3 Six-Inch Select Sub for three months in a row, and then again as its $5 Footlong the month after that. But it seems the ORC’s reign of terror is finally over, since the newest $5 Footlong for the month of July is none other than the chicken-free Western Egg & Cheese.

Toasted with Black Forest Ham, peppers, onions and melted cheese on flatbread, the Western Egg & Cheese looked promising enough for me to venture down the street to Subway to try it out myself. Luckily, unlike most of Subway’s breads, the flatbread can usually be toasted without drying out the entire sandwich. Unluckily, my sub “artist” also asked me to choose my meat instead of giving me the ham de facto, so I opted for the roast beef which ended up costing $10. Seriously Subway, you give people too many options. Who’s going to remember what meat is supposed end up where, especially when it’s not spelled out in the sub’s title? Can’t you just tell me what things taste good (and aren’t too expensive) together and stop asking me to think for myself? Kay, thanks.
