Sun chips have a weird taste that lingers, not my favorite. I flat out hate the veggie ones, but the cheese are okay. Plain lays are bomb. Dont care for the baked and i prefer wavy over regular fried.
I'm not just trying to be contrarian, but cold subs always. A hot sub is fine if it's meatball or cheesesteak and designed to be hot by nature, but any kind of deli meat, cheese and veggies is always better cold. But, if all the ingredients are too chilled, it can ruin it. Tomatoes for example are better closer to room temp than blasted cold. Hold off on toasting the bread and meat though for me always. Even an italian sub which can go either way pretty easily, is better without toasting. And firehouse is a weird hot sub with how they steam it. The turkey bacon ranch is good but every other sub I've tried has been meh. I think it's the sauce I don't like maybe... like the honey mustard on the hook and ladder ruins it. Too sweet or something. It's also why I don't do which wich anymore as there's no 'not-toasted' option on the bags.
I'm a big fan of Cheba Hut but I really wish there was consistency in terms of how loaded your sandwich is, at least at my location.
Floridians laughing at your silly "best sub spot" debates while we eat our chicken tendy PubSubs with Boar's Head cheese.
You should never need to toast your hoagie bread. The roll should be hard and crusty from the beginning, but sadly, most places have soft, dull-ass bread
I love publix, subs but not the chicken tender ones. They insist on chopping the fuck of the tenders so all the breading and meat separates, and then they just put way too much where it's impossible to get a decent amount of any type of topping on there. If you like just chicken, cheese and bread, and for half the bites to be breading and bread, then sure, it's a sandwich dream.
People who eat a hot sub with mayo in it are weirdos. It has to be cold. But yeah, chicken parm, meatball, steak and cheese, etc are great and best served hot
when I see it on a menu, it's like the restaurant is doing me a favor--ok, definitely don't order this
People who say no have never tried it at home and have probably had it from a restaurant and liked it unknowingly.
I use mayo and a splash of EOO for my grilled cheeses. Also sometimes I will sprinkle some grated Parm on the bread once its been oiled up so its grills into the bread.
One time a restaurant asked me of I wanted mayo on my Philly Cheesesteak, and she said "are you sure?" when I said no. I had to stop myself from asking " wtf is wrong with you?"
