In Philadelphia, where folks take their cheezesteaks seriously (buuuuurp.....aaaaaaaah), I could understand why many consider it sacrilege to put ketchup on a genuine Pats or Geno's cheezesteak, but not at a Subway in Florida. :facepalm:

I worked at subway in high school. Can't say I've ever seen a ketchup pack In The store. Then again our franchise was never open for breakfast. Subway's breakfast is one big fail.

I don't understand why anyone puts ketchup on anything. I don't even have a bottle in my fridge. Terrible, awful, horrible stuff that only serves to ruin good food.

Nope, its in the bottle that farts out ketchup every time they squeeze it. Its alittle less vulgar than a mayo bottle fart, but more emphasized than a mustard bottle fart. Makes employees and costumers alike laugh every time.

Yes you can, it has a much more preferable cousin: chili sauce. It destroys ketchup's face and farts in it's general direction.

For you, sure, but not for those downwind from you after you've digested it.

Sounds like a personal problem.

All of which are not available at Subway. The little Indian-looking guy at my local Subway is also a little high-strung, I've noticed...

Sure, but owners hire other people to work in their restaurants so they don't have to be there. Duh.

I must say, I have never, EVER seen ANYONE buy a cookie at ANY subway I have ever been to. I've been to subway more than any other fast food joint (or probably any restaurant for that matter, other than the one I worked at for 8 years). Most of the time their multi-layer cookie shelf only has ~4 cookies on it. Reminds me of the Kwik-E-Mart sketch on the simpsons where Homer orders the hot dog.
"DUDE I didn't know you sold hot dogs!"
"[apu voice]Normally we don't... those hotdogs are strictly ornamental... but he keeps eating them [/apu]"
I'm paraphrasing, obviously.

Ketchup is good on hotdogs, hamburgers and meatloaf. Otherwise, no thanks.

Ketchup is good on nothing. I hate it. Maybe meatloaf, but I usually use steak sauce. Plus it's TERRIBLY unhealthy stuff.

Subway cookies are bangin. I always get the white chocolate chip ones with macadamia nuts.

Ketchup is necessary to maintain life. The only ketchup I could never eat was this.
