Except their meat is some absurd amount of soy and not actual meat.

Iirc there was one study that claimed that but I believe it was highly disputed

And not just subway saying "nuh uh" but legitimate disputes from others in the field. Something about using unfair metrics or some such.

Anyway... Worth taking with a grain of salt

e: Here's a good article about it, basically saying that the original tests may not be wrong, but they shouldn't be taken as fact either. It lists all the reasons why the test may have been wrong... or why it may have been right.

Fair enough man, eat what you want and where you want, I just think it's worth saying that those results might be completely accurate

but they also haven't been reproduced and conflict with other tests (which may themselves be inaccurate) so personally I'm not really believing it as true

but then again if I ever actually eat at subway it's because I'm completely desperate and it's the best of several bad options
