Misty Vagle: If you compare the digestive system and other physical parameters of humans with carnivores, you will find the following differences:1. Humans have fingers with soft nails whereas carnivores have fingers/toes with sharp, strong nails.2. The teeth of animals can tear into raw flesh; human teeth are not meant for this. 3. We cannot digest raw meat whereas animals can.4. The small intestine of humans are as long as 25 to 28 ft. long whereas that of carnivores are only a few feet long. This means that the food we consume remains in our intestine for a very long time - as long as 10-12 hours whereas the animals defecate every few hours. Our intestine is not meant for eating meat and meat products although they may taste better than vegetables....Show more
Darrel Stele: It's not necessarily the food itself, but rather the fact that they cross-contaminate. For example, they'll touch the chicken and then the lettuce, tainting it and making it non-vegetarian. ! Should I expect this easily-preventable problem in all Subway stores or are they more careful and vegetarian-friendly in other locations?
Malcom Fenoff: Honey, these are people that barely understand that they need to wash their hands. They are clueless. Most low end restaurants are unable or unwilling to cater to vegetarians. As you move up the food chain, they get better. Even at Denny's, my son cooked veggie burgers in the microwave, rather than on the grill where meat had been cooking. And he used tongs. But then he has a brain!..Later, his upscale restaurants would create a dish for anyone who walked in the door and explained they were vegetarian, or vegan. If you live in an area where there are kosher places, they will keep veggies separate, being as they cannot mix certain food products, and salad is a safe standby. It is challenging, but it can be done. Good Luck....Show more

Ileen Oshell: The bigger one has more proteins than the smaller one!
Everette Rovinsky: It's nothing to do with being picky, but rather being careful and making sure that what I eat actually is vegetarian. My opinions and lifestyle aren't going to change because of your opinions on what vegetarianism is.
Jesse Japak: You can ask them to change the gloves between meat and salad for you, but they don't for other customers, and I once found a few small pieces of meat in my sandwich, so I don't go there anymore. I suggest you avoid Subways anywhere.
Palmira Lochridge: It's a crappy fast food place. It is too be expected. I am not! saying it is ok by any stretch but I am saying it is a fact of our mur! derous anti vegan culture. I would ask the persyn making your sandwich too put on fresh gloves, though I would recommend avoiding eating Subway a whole lot. You can make a better fresher sandwich yourself and make sure no animal products have touched it and you can also know everything in it and make it the right size.
Luke Kosch: Also, I'm very careful about the food I eat. To me, eating lettuce that has been contaminated with chicken is the same as licking chicken, so any "it's still vegetarian" answers will be completely disregarded. :/
Lionel Tanen: Uefine "unatural". while our body is designed to utilize almost any type of food, our brain is designed to allow us to see that #1 we don't have to eat meat to survive, #2 that meat is not the healthiest food source for mostly sedentary creatures and #3 that killing unecessarily is ethically problematical.Which of these definittions you choose proves only that our brains are also large enough to allow us to ratio! nalize whatever choices we make....Show more

Hollis Demasters: Vegans don't eat anything that comes from animals like eggs, milk, cheese etc. vegetarians don't eat meat but they still eat cheese n ****
Whitney Saborido: vegetarian = no meatvegan = no animal products no dairy no white sugar no ice cream no milk no eggs no cheese none of that
Freeman Rutkin: there is no way that a person can be 100% vegetarian. you can try your best and that is what its really about, but everything around you has animal byproducts in it, i bet that atleast half of the things you interact with on a daily basis had something to do with an animal byproduct. i think its rather rude and ignorant of you to c! ome in and say that people who eat at subway arent true vegetarians and! are just careless. truthfully i think that you need to get off of your high horse and realize that you are going to use some type of animal product whether you like it or not. you might be vegetarian but your living in an omnivorous world......Show more
Charissa Bichsel: Other than "Veggie Delite", Sub-manner eating places even have a "Veggie Patty". I am now not certain if it is to be had in any respect retail outlets. It's now not to be had in our neighborhood sub-manner. They mentioned they don't seem to be making the ones patties anymore and it is determined by the shop. That veggie patty tasted very well. It's made with soy and different greens.
Antonette Shappy: Yeah, coming to the Vegetarian & Vegan catagory to make fun of the compassionate people? Yeah, mature. GTFO.
Tomeka Hameen: Vegetarians don't eat meat. Vegans don't eat (or in some cases use) any type of animal product including milk, eggs, leather, etc.
Dulcie Edis: a Balut, a fertili! sed chicken or duck egg with a partially-developed embryo.
Keven Drumgole: SO, trevor, you eat raw meat then? Without plants to season it? TO answer the post, the human animal is built with equipment to digest and burn plant fuel for energy. The human body is made of flesh. When it's fed other flesh it gets sick and dies slowly. The flesh contains poisonous substances for the human body, which , in time, damage the cells and blood and cause a host of diseases....Show more
Leif Serabia: I'm confused. There's a ton of different kind of chicken eggs in stores - M size eggs, L size eggs, XL size eggs, free range eggs, caged eggs, etc..... and on some packs have written the amount of protein and on some not. I've even noticed that some of same size eggs from different farms also have different amount of protein. Is there some kind of way how i can tell what eggs have more and what less protein? Is there some kind of factors that effects it, like maybe different types! of chickens? What are those factors? =/...Show more
Elden Bardac! h: I think it's unnatural for humans to be at either extremes. Too much meat and no veggies = get sick. No meat lots of veggies = risk of suffering from anorexia, anemia, etc. What needs to be thought of is a BALANCE of both. More fruits and veggies and less meat. The North American population is eating way too much meat as it is which explains why these vehement vegan groups ("Screw You" certainly made a prime example with his/her vulgarity and hate message) are so strongly opposed to the meat industry then make up these "facts" to support their claims that humans are herbivores, not omnivores. None of which I find fully true nor accurate.You see, none of those who posted "yes" failed to realize what true herbivores/"vegetarians" consider us humans as: Predators. Most, if not all true herbivores see humans as a natural predator, a natural "meat eater," if you will. We also still retain the "hunter" or "predator/prey" instinct and relationship with animals around us. To ! sneak, to stalk prey, to hunt, to chase, etc. We still retain that. Those who live in the cities and resort to "civilized" life, for lack of a better term, may not see that as much, but it's there. No need to add in the "lust for blood and gore" and all that--we get that from just seeing movies--that satiates our need to see such things, even we don't wish to admit it. The fact that we don't salivate at the site of a rabbit or a cow doesn't challenge the above either: sure we don't do it as human beings in a more controlled, urban environment, but in the midst of a survival situation, that's a whole different story. When there are not enough plant matter or no plants around to satiate our hunger, what better than to turn to hunting and trapping methods to get the protein and fat needed to survive? True herbivores tend to have either a multiple-chambered stomach or a large, functional cecum or both. Humans have neither: merely a simple stomach designed for the digestion o! f animal products like meat, and a flimsy, useless appendage called the! "appendix" that does nothing for us in our digestion at all. We can't even digest cellulose--it is only good for us as a means to clean out the poop chute, nothing else. (That's why plant matter we eat tends to go through faster--when food goes through our GI tract at a fast rate, it means it's not hardly worth keeping to digest. Meat and animal products on the other hand...) With meat and dairy products, the myth that it stays in our stomachs and "rots" is a misnomer. Animal products stay longer in our GI tract because it's being digested more fully. There are a lot of nutrients to glean from such products, and in order to get it all it has to take its time from the time of swallowing to the time it comes out our anuses. And as for raw meat, look at the Inuit and Eskimo tribes up north. They still eat meat that's raw or partly cooked and haven't gotten sick or died off. Hardly do they need any plant products to add to the flavour of the meat--wild game meat tends to t! aste better than CAFO-raised meat anyway without the added seasonings. Even people who follow the Raw Food diet eat meat raw, and there hasn't been much heck raised over the fact that raw meat is unhealthy with those diet-followers. Because we've grown accustomed to cooking meat, it's become the norm. Something we've evolved to accept as a part of our diets. Most, though, not everyone.So really, it's more natural to follow an omnivore diet of whatever suits your genetics or blood-type. Some people are best suited to a diet of primarily vegetables and fruits, whereas others are best suited to a diet of mixed fruits, veggies and meat products. Not everyone is the same, and no one should be stupid enough to assume such a thing. Especially all you vegan-touting people out there....Show more
Alexis Reyer: No, it is unnatural for humans to eat meat. We are not designed to eat meat, our biology is that of our herbivore friends. Humans are made to digest plant foods not ! flesh. Very early man was vegan but learned how to eat meat after watch! ing certain animals hunt and eat raw flesh, this put the idea into their minds and they also tried it. Since then man has become addicted to meat, we have become conditioned to thinking that meat is good for us when really it contributes to many of the developed worlds most life threatening dideases....Show more

Charis Deguzman: Vegetarian is just a diet, They still eat eggs and dairy, so they are still causing harm to animals in those industries. There is no such thing as an "Ethical Vegetarian".Vegan is an ethical lifestyle choice.

Peggy Sandefer: I can understand people thinking humans are supposed to eat meat. :) But the unbelievable truth is that humans aren't supposed to eat meat.You see, humans began eating meat as cavemen because of famine. Humans thought of ways to eat animals (tools, spears, knives). It carried on as tradition.If you compare us to a lion and a bear (carnivore and omnivore) our teeth just aren't the same. They have big razor sharp daggers-for-teeth in a different style to ours. ours are more like a horses or giraffes (herbivores.We also don't have claws, strong stomach acids, short guts, high speeds or the right bone structure.Humans even have to cook meat or get ill. Even then it's still the top cause of cancer, heart disease, cholesterol, diabetes, and a load more.And yes, we have little canines. There's other herbivores with them too. They can't rip skin. They aren't designed for meat. They aren't long enough to kill, wound, or tear flesh....Show m! ore
Clare Hoard: well, touching RAW chicken or meat and then vege! tables is a big no-no. I saw on the news that someone got e.coli from pondarosa steak house. do you know what they ate there that made them sick? WATERMELLON. they sliced the meat and the watermellon with the same knife. oops.its not JUST touching meat and then vegetables at subway. When they scoop meat items out at deli-style restaurants, the scoop HOVERS over everthing else in the counter, and bits of it fall off into the other buckets of food. So there are broken off pieces meat dishes falling off into the spanich leaves etc.i dont eat at subway because i went there once and the owner some somalian woman screamed at me because i was going to use their toilet AND THEN order food. (to wash my hands) and she screamed across the room in front of everyone like the soup nazi that i had to buy something FIRST to use the toilet.i think any type of public place that has poor people is going to be gross on so many levels that any type of complaint about them is moot....Show more
Lolita Deschamp: It is very good to be mostly vegan. But because we were told we can eat many things such as meat as well it is acceptable. We have incisor teeth up front, four canine teeth and then molars in back. We are suited to eat both ways. The only thing is we need to eat meat in very small quantities and get most of our nutrition from plant based foods. The more animal protein you put into your bodies the more acitic your body becomes which I turn is a great breeding ground for bad bacteria, viruses and cancers to thrive and grow. So we must choose all organic foods and mostly plant based foods. Always very what you eat so that you get all the nutrition you need. The best way to stay healthy and easiest is: 1- champion juicer2- Vitamix machine. Please get both. Please watch the following documentaries on netflix and share with your family and friends-1- The Gerson therapy 2- Fat, sick and nearly dead3- The future of food Watch other food documentariesR! emember you are what you eat.Socrates said 'choose thy food as thy medi! cine'.

Elden Dedon: Being a vegan means using NO animal products whatsoever. A vegetarian doesn't eat meat (though some vegetarians might eat poultry and/or fish) and usually consume dairy as well (eggs, milk, cheese, cream, etc.) Vegans do not consume meat, poultry, fish, dairy or honey. If you are vegan for compassionate reasons, vegans stay away from wearing animals as well (no leather, no wool, no cashmere, no fur, no silk, etc.) and only buys products that are certified cruelty free and vegan (meaning no animal experiments were done to make the product and no animal by products were used either). Compassionate vegans do not attend circuses or zoo's or any place where animals are used cruelly and inhumanely in any way. Being a vegetarian or vegan is a spiritual and compassionate journey, and you have to be really dedicated to the cause if you want to make it work and live healthy and happy....Show more
Refugio Gastineau! : Vegetarians are people who don't eat anything that came from a dead animal, this includes meat, lard, gelatin, rennet, etc.Vegans don't eat anything that came from an animal, and they try their best not to use anything made with a product that came from a dead animal (this is almost impossible). They don't eat anything a vegetarian wouldn't eat, and they also abstain from eggs, dairy, honey, silk, wool, leather, etc.There are different types of vegetarians.Lactoveggies will use dairy products, and even some will eat cheese, even though it contains rennetOvoveggies will eat eggs.IMO if ovoveggies got eggs from chickens that they knew were kept humanely, then they wouldn't be contributing to animal cruelty. So yes, there is such a thing as an "ethical vegetarian"....Show more
Neely Youngblut: Actually, the molecules of the chicken are being transferred onto the lettuce which most certainly does make it non-vegetarian. Just because other "vegetarians" are so careless t! hat they don't mind comsuming small amounts of dead animals, doesn't me! an I'm the same.
Hilton Paiva: Actually, something as simple as using tongs for meat would suffice.
Catheryn Small: Ideally, ALL cross contamination should be avoid for sanitation purposes. We are not required use tongs for everything because it is assumed that whatever we touch in the bins will be going straight onto the persons sandwich and we won't touch what is left behind. Knives and cutting boards are to be sanitized and gloves should be changed upon request. If these conditions are not being met at your Subway, than I would suggest calling the corporate hot line and recommending the staff be retrained in food safety (1 800 888 4848). However, if your diet calls for stricter measures, than I'd honestly just avoid any restaurant that isn't strictly vegetarian. I'm glad to see that you actually think about these things, a lot of vegetarians or people that have mild allergies just don't....Show more

Caroyln Ebach: Well technically raw organic eggs that are grassed have the best and most protein that you can get off a farm, some farmers sell them depending on your state and laws,because they arent shot up with all those terrible antibiotic chemicals and hormones which essentially destroy pretty much all nutrients and vitami! ns in eggs. But my second choice would be organic brown large eggs they! are a healthier option to white eggs and less cholestrol and fat and more protein! I always get the grass fed echicken eggs because they are healthiest but can be a,little more expensive anf pretty inconvient to go to a farm each time if you are not willing to travel....Show more

It really is gross when they touch meats and veggies, I can totally relate to that.You should first ask those guys to wear a fresh pair of gloves(they can't refuse that) and then ask that person to handle your sandwich all along. Tipping an extra dollar might help you the next time too :)Since you are also grossed out by this contamination, if you are ordering a foot long sandwich, ask them not to cut it. Or ask them to use a fresh knife. Usually they use the same knife or just wipe it.Don't pay attention t! o people criticizing about your choices....Show more
