Subway’s tuna sandwiches...
found to contain no tuna fish.
New York Times report had 60 inches of Subway tuna tested at lab and found 'no amplifiable tuna DNA was present' https://www.foxbusiness.com/lifestyl...way-sandwiches Subway is on the hook for its tuna once again after a lab report found there’s no actual tuna DNA in its sandwiches and wraps. The New York Times had 60 inches of Subway tuna sandwiches from three different restaurants in Los Angeles lab tested after the chain was accused in a lawsuit reported earlier this year, alleging the fish is made from "a mixture of various concoctions," first reported by the Washington Post. The tuna was frozen and sent out to the lab, which determined "no amplifiable tuna DNA was present in the sample and so we obtained no amplification products from the DNA. Therefore, we cannot identify the species," according to the Times. The lab conducted a PCR test to see if Subway’s tuna featured one of five varying tuna species, the New York Times reported, explaining there are 15 species of fish that can be labeled tuna, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Seafood List. The lab determined two potential reasons why no tuna was detected in the sample, saying, "One it’s so heavily processed that whatever we could pull out, we couldn’t make an identification … Or we got some and there’s just nothing there that’s tuna," the newspaper noted. The food fraud investigation comes on the heels of a complaint filed with the U.S. District Court of the Northern District of California suing the sandwich chain for fraud, with the plaintiffs alleging they were lied to and "tricked into buying food items that wholly lacked the ingredients they reasonably thought they were purchasing." Subway responded to the lawsuit in January, saying there is "no truth to the allegations in the complaint" and affirming the chain "delivers 100% cooked tuna to its restaurants," Fox News previously reported. |

I stopped going to Subway when they quit serving roast beef. It was the only thing I liked there.

She said it was tuna, and it smelled like tuna, but I’m not so sure…

At the campus where I had worked for this college for many years the only thing available was a Subway unless you brought lunch or went off campus. The owner got pissed and reported me because she overheard me making a joke to my co-worker that I refuse to eat at Subway and if you want anything that resembles green lettuce you have to go on Tuesdays when they re-stock.
My boss at the time basically told her to shut her cock warmer because I hadn't said anything that was false. |

I think hiring the lesbo soccer player to rep Subway meets the tuna requirement, no?

My very devout Baptist (with two b's) roommate in college broke it down for me. You pray over any food the cook could screw up. So, bag of chips? No need for prayer. Hamburger and fries? You bet you need to pray over that first.

That pretty much does it for me. So they quit selling that stuff that kinda looked like roast beef, huh. Going with Publix and if I can't get that, some local deli.
