1. They poisoned me and my family. 2 weeks of hell.

2. I ate at Jimmy John's once, worst sandwich I've ever had.

I prefer Jersey Mikes - so much better!

3. Never have never will I suppose. Not my kind of food but they are everywhere around here (IL)

Will rec but Ok if it's that bad I won't look but heads up to JJ eaters to take a peek
Know your food!

4. This, and their so called sandwiches really and truly suck.

I have refused to buy that crap for years. Their food is less than mediocre.

All the more reason.

(FYI For subs, I like DiBella's in this area, though I cannot speak for their ethical practices, I just do not know. At least they make some real bread as opposed to that crap JJs uses, which they rip the crumb out of anyway. Always thought that was weird.)

I know, somewhat irrelevant, the message is more important than my tastes!

5. I think that is pertinant.

I just don't go to any chains.

Except 5 Guys, I love 5 Guys

7. Yes, 5 Guys is a guilty pleasure....

Those sinfully rich Cajun fries cooked in peanut oil are just too scary good!

Burgers are good too, but I hate that they are only cooked well done, but I understand the reason.

I have to make a conscious effort to stay away!

I will also say that it is not a good place to buy Hot Dogs, FWIIW.

I just need to keep away from deep fired foods these days.

My aging body gets upset.

6. Not to mention they force their employees to sign non-compete agreements

So they can't even leave their crappy minimum wage jobs for other (crappy minimum wage) jobs at, say, Potbelly's.

Like making a sandwich is some kind of trade secret.



BTW: I didn't read the linked article - I'm a vegetarian because I can't stand animal cruelty - but thank you for raising awareness!

9. I had read about how good their sandwiches are

many times some even here. So I make a stop and buy a sandwich, I won't go back. Bill and Ruths Subs or Schlotzsky's has them beat all to hell

i can't do the link though, sorry

10. I spent a weird night with Jimmy John a few decades ago.

I am pretty sure cocaine was involved.

11. I believe it. I've heard stories from others who have met him.
