The nutritional information for an apple can be easily be found on-line.<br /><br />I am not sure if the restaurants are required by law to disclose the nutritional information, but they should. If you are concerned about your health, as most of us are these days, avoid restaurants that refuse to share the information.<br /><br />After all, we do not have to eat at Quizno's. There are several food chains that post their information, plus eating at home or packing your own lunch is cheaper. I am sure that if Quizno's sees a decline in sales they will take the matter seriously. If their sales remain strong however, it means they are catering to a public that has no fear for a coronary.<br /><br />I guess if they are "killing" their own customers the issue will self correct in a few years.<br /><br />As much I would like to see them posting the nutritional information, I have to admit that they do not advertise themselves as a healthy pleace to eat. I would actually take their refusal as an admission that they are an un-healthy place to eat, and avoid it accordingly.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9437268.post-21546399823601094682010-01-14T16:42:09.396-05:002010-01-14T16:42:09.396-05:00Marlene

Don't know anyone who is healthy but likes a little treat sometimes, and wants to know what the corporate chemical dump is trying to put into their bodies? You seem to think customers wanting information about your product is all a scam to make you submit to your competition. And on a personal note, I must point out that obviously you have too much time on your hands, too - try hitting the library. I can't help thinking perhaps you're only posing as a Quizno's employee, and your ignorant tirade might actually be part of a negative P.R. campaign to make people even angrier at Quizno's. P.S.

But is it really that much to ask for quizno's to give out nutririon facts? I mean, even McDonald's does it and so much of their stuff is so disgusting for you. Even if quizno's is bad for you, at least those of us concerned about moderation and staying fit (and wanting to eat quizno's!) could have something to go by.

I believe that the fat and sodium content are unusually high almost to the point of probably beyond 80% to over 200% in value. It seems that there is no law from the FDA to state out nutritional facts. I've eaten there and it seems to be a big problem for me since I have high blood pressure (stage 2 hypertension). This is a serious matter and it will have consequences on those franchises if they are sued by customers. Their websites should post nutritional information.

Many people who follow a healthy lifestyle monitor the nutritional information of what they eat. Also for anyone who has ever monitored what they eat you know that a turkey sub at one place is not the same at another. I think fast food should show nutritional information for the same reasons the FDA requires nutritional labels on packaged goods. I think everyone should have the right to know what they put into their bodies, especially after the most recent findings on transfats.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9437268.post-1109195455241672052007-08-28T16:11:00.000-04:002007-08-28T16:11:00.000-04:00Oh and replying to some of the other posts...it's ...Oh and replying to some of the other posts...it's not about whether you choose to eat fast food or not...it's about whether, corporations such as Quizno's have a responsibility to the consumer.

Little did I realize! My frustration is the salads. The "flatbread" salads, I believe, defeat the purpose of a salad... ya know, avoiding the BREAD. They have completely moved over to the Flatbread salads and no longer offer the regular salads sans bread. I emailed Quizno's to express my disappointment (sha, like I expected a response). So now I take the bread out and give it to my co-workers... but what about the dressings??

And well, I'm not going to blame Quiznos for this, but when I started Quiznos I was already on a diet. But since my diet started to get interrupted by the new kinds of food I was eating, I stopped dieting. And well, that's probably most of the reason, but, I've also gained a little bit more weight than anticipated! <BR/><BR/>So, I'm also mad that Quiznos won't show their nutritional facts. But hey, I need my break...<BR/><BR/>And well, since I work there, I'll tell you how it kinda is. It IS true that we cut and slice everything on our own. And everyday it's new, fresh ingredients. We always wear gloves and we always have to clean up our mess. I mean, the place is in no way gross or dirty.<BR/><BR/>But! That still doesn't mean I know how many calories are in the sandwiches or if the breads and sauces used are low-calorie. Probably not, is my guess. And I don't know if the soups are good either. They just come as frozen bags and we defrost them, put them in the microwave to heat up, then keep them on the stove all day. So I dunno about that!<BR/><BR/>But, I think...that as long as you keep it to a small sub, and not a lot of dressing or any other extra ingredients, then those sandwiches can be pretty healthy for you. That's just my opinion anyway. <BR/><BR/>Well, good luck trying to boycott Quiznos or whatever, haha.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9437268.post-5190930289928776182007-07-19T02:16:00.000-04:002007-07-19T02:16:00.000-04:00Heather posted some helpful websites to try and un...Heather posted some helpful websites to try and uncover Quizno's nutrition information, but when I looked up "chocolate chip cookie", the nutrition information on thedailyplate.com showed calories and the fat content for one cookie as half the amount shown on calorieking.com.

Be wary though because they are not Quiznos and therefore do not have all the information (how do they add flavor...what is the chicken marinated in for example). There may be hidden fats. www.thedailyplate.com and www.calorieking.com www.nutritiondata.com doesn't have quiznos but is a good site for other nutrition information. As for those who ridicule "fatties," give me a break. I'm not fat but still interested in what I put into my body to stay fit. You clearly have no concept of nutrition for the sake of nutrition and the expectation that a company should be responsible to it's consumers who have been asking for this information for years. I don't think people are irate because they don't plaster the facts all over the restaurant. People are upset because they work so hard to hide the facts. What does this say? I recently e-mailed Q and let them know that I will be going to Subway instead until they are more forthcoming. Good luck to all.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
