I mean, if you’re going out to sit down restaurant and getting a good sandwich, I don’t think that’s unacceptable at all. That said, my local sub shop has amazing subs for $6-8
That sounds like a dream to me in Germany. Subway for two was around 20€ last year and the average Döner is at least 7-8€, though in my area it’s closer to 10€
With or without drinks, and footlong or half-footlong? Been a while since I’ve been to subway, but I’d be very surprised to learn that the cheaper half-footlongs are already at 10€ (assuming your area’s taxes, wages and raw material prices are similar to mine, which is not a given). IMO the footlongs are too big to count as “one sandwich”.
Without drinks and foot long. Even if I don’t finish it in one sitting, I’ll basically always go for a bigger sandwich and have leftovers later, unless it’s something really saucy or likely to get super soggy.
It’s about the size of a dürüm, at least around me. If they stuffed it really full, it might feel bigger, but subway was never even close to as full as any Döner place makes theirs. I tend to judge the size of food by my companions because I have a bird stomach (I would be happiest having three bites of food every half hour all day long, because otherwise I get really full), and I’m the only one who saves part of it for later.
Does nobody here find it a bit insane that 11 dollars is seen as an acceptable price for a sandwich these days?
I believe you mean “eleven dollars dollars”.
You mean “dollars eleven dollars”.
Me. I think it’s outrageous 😳
Even worse, it is half the size it was 5 years ago.
it’s not even a foot long

Going to a sit down restaurant for a sandwich is very suspicious behavior. Like going to a bar and ordering a glass of milk.
Yeah same in the EU, every local sub place will be €5 at most

If you’re eating at Subway you’re doing it wrong
That’s why my last price point is last year

Yeah, but that’s one big sandwich. 10€ for a big sandwich is different from 10€ for a normal-sized sandwich.

Yeah well, a döner isn’t really a sandwich.
Laughs in Eastern Europe’s 20$/week spendings on food.
While making sandwiches for myself every day.
Oh, I pay about that in the grocery store, I just can’t get restaurant food for that cheap.
If I’m going to be spending eleven dollars for a sandwimch it better be two.
This must be old; it’s $15 everywhere near me now.
I remember when I thought $8 was steep. It wasn’t even that long ago.
nah that’s a reasonable price for a quality sandwich in Canada
now if you convert that $11 USD to CAD, then no, that’s high
