INGREDIENTS OF THE DAY:  Cultured Wheat Flour, Ferrous Gluconate, Alum, Calcium Silicate

Today, I return to investigating a fast food restaurant.  The target is Subway, long heralded as a healthy choice for those consumers seeking convenience food that’s a cut above the rest.  But, here’s the question, does Subway live up to its self-promoted reputation.  Is its menu really good for you or is it just another well-disguised example of ultra-professed food?  Join me for a deep dive into a Subway meal to answer that question.  Along the way, I’ll look at Subway’s history and talk about some new food ingredients.
