Quiznos

Do you like having diarrhea? Then you’ll love Quiznos! There truly is something for everyone — prepping your colon for an upcoming colonoscopy? You can skip the Metamucil and Gatorade, because just one meal at any Quiznos location is enough to ensure you will be shitting nothing but water for days to come. Applying for a job and need to pass a drug test, but you don’t have the 30 days normally required to clean your system? No worries, a quiznos detox awaits. For just ~$ 7.99, you can ensure that your whole body will be cleansed just as effectively as if you had gone on one of those juice cleanses where you just drink water flavored with leaves. Thanks, Quiznos!

I opted for a sub at Quiznos instead of a sandwich at Roy Rogers because I figured it would be marginally healthier. The sub was good — $ 7.77 for an 8″ specialty sub, a price I considered reasonable for a food court on a toll highway. The staff were efficient and friendly, the dining area was bright and clean. It’s a good choice for a meal.
But then there’s the beverages. The girl at the counter asked if I wanted anything to drink. I said I couldn’t see any sign for beverages. She pointed to the fountain cups (2 sizes, large and behemoth) and the soda fountain on the other side of the dining area. Guess what, NO PRICES. Then she pointed to the cooler with bottled water, iced tea, and juices. Guess what, NO PRICES. You know what that means? It means the prices are most likely higher than they want you to realize.
My experience has been that this is not uncommon in food courts where one place has fountain beverages and the others do not. Typically your fountain beverage will be a bit higher than average to offset the cost when people ordering drinks at other places in the food court come here for free refills — which is really bogus anyway, since the profit margin on fountain sodas is already ridiculously high.
So enjoy a good sub here. If you need a soda, expect to pay above average for it. Or consider a drink at Starbucks next door, or even the water fountain near the rest rooms.
