All tag results for 'advertising'

We previously mentioned that Subway has been getting a lot of backlash over the size of their footlong subs.

People shouldn't be so upset… size isn't everything!

JK! Folks do kinda have a point. It's basically false advertising when a "footlong" sandwich is only 11 inches.

Two New Jersey men have hopped on the bandwagon and are suing Subway.

Subway, you need to check yoself!

Last week, we reported about a new movement of Subway customers that are pissed that their footlong subs were NOT twelve inches long, therefore not a 'footlong'. They're upset and feel like they're getting a raw deal.

We also let you know that Subway responded like this:

"Our bread is freshly baked daily in each of the over 38,000 Subway restaurants worldwide. We are committed to providing a consistent product, delivering the same amount of bread to the customer with every order. The length, however, may vary slightly when not baked to our exact specifications. We are reinforcing our policies and procedures in an effort to ensure our offerings are always consistent no matter which Subway restaurant you visit."

Turns out, Subway's ORIGINAL response was a little more bullshizzy — check it out:

Who says a diet soda has to have ZERO calories?

Dr. Pepper thinks that's a dumb cap, and has decided to pump up it's line of 10 calorie diet sodas after the success of Dr. Pepper 10!

It's just too bad with how misogynistic their advertising was — we might be a little more excited had they had a little respect. Who actually believes that men have a problem with the image and idea of diet sodas?
