say NO to togo’s




TOGO IS A NO-NO

In the evening yesterday, I strongly needed some good food for Hell’s Kitchen night (Mondays 9pm on Fox) to make up for the foul taste in my mouth and I was successful..on last night’s menu was:

Appetizer: pureed roasted red peppers with walnuts and pomegranite molasses as a dipping sauce

Main course: Mahi with polenta, roasted tomato sauce

Dessert: a homemade puff pastry with sauteed bananas and rum.

But a few hours before that fine meal, I snapped. For the last several months I’ve been going to a local sandwich place by my office as it’s one of very few lunch options around me.

Yesterday I ordered a similar sandwich that I’ve had many times before — I took two bites and wanted to vomit. There was no hair, mice, fingers or chicken heads in my sandwich — it was just… nasty.

I’ve had the sandwich maybe 15 times over 4 months and just became absolutely sick of it. So I’ve snapped and refuse to go there ever again. EVER.

Today I made my own comfort sandwich from home — good ole keilbasa sandwich. Can’t ever get tired of no keilbasa.

    How about a low fat Subway sandwich.(they have quite a few selections)..with a choice of veggies and definitely a touch..just a touch of red peppers…Tomatoes, lettuce, sour pickles and red peppers…and a choice of meats and maybe a slice of provalone…Ok so provalone is not low fat but it is my favorite…and I can justify a slice to myself…

    Let me tell you something, friend. I may appear in those commercials but Subway sucks. You heard it here.

    Was it as nasty as that time you found the hair in your Big Mac? I believe that after compIaining to the corporate headquarters, they sent you McDonald’s coupons. I think I am still traumatized from that one.
