Subway under fire after famous ‘foot-long’ sandwich is only 11-inches

on January 18, 2013 12:43 pm / 10 comments

What’s in an inch? Apparently, enough missing meat, cheese and tomatoes to cause an uproar.

Subway, the world’s largest fast food chain with 38,000 locations, is facing widespread criticism after a man who appears to be from Australia posted a photo on the company’s Facebook page of one of its footlong sandwiches next to a tape measure that shows the sub is just 11 inches.

More than 100,000 people have “liked” or commented on the photo, which had the caption “Subway pls respond.” Lookalike pictures popped up elsewhere on Facebook. And The New York Post conducted its own investigation that found that four out of seven footlong sandwiches that it measured were shy of the 12 inches that makes a foot. Click below for full story -

Is he going to set up a whitehouse petition and get obama to look into it?

If they had 100k comments the whitehouse would have to respond and take action
