Fuck Jimmy and his non-compete bullshit.

Is this an advertisement or what?

Sure is.

Your local sandwich shop should do this for ya anyway, if you want one.

Mine does, at least! Had been for a while before Jimmy John's.

They hollow out a big kosher dill and stuff the sandwich fixing in there. It's a pretty fun novelty, but I think I prefer the bread they get from the bakery just up the road.

Support local businesses, Jimmy John's and Subway are but pale imitators and all that jazz.

There is a local sub shop that is so much better than any of the chains. I only go there for sandwiches.

Same, and it’s vegan so I don’t have to worry about killing a bunch of animals to satisfy a sandwich craving.

[–] Crackhappy@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

Nice! The shop I go to has four vegan options as well as a bunch of interesting meat options.

I recently started liking pickles in the past 5–10 years after a lifetime of avoiding them and I love them now, even JJ’s pickles are fantastic, but wtf is this shit? This sounds like a bridge too far for me.
