String in my Subway sandwich

[Buddha]

This is no joke! This past Saturday I picked up a sub from Subway to go, as I was eating this on my drive home I found a 12 inch piece of white string that looks like dental floss in my mouth. I had a passenger in the car with me that witnessed the entire thing. I went back to the store to complain and this was useless because it was two kids working there. I asked for the managers name and contact info and they would not give it out. Long story short I filed a complaint on the Subway website and I did get in contact with the manager who wants me to drive back to the store and show her the string etc.., I am okay with doing this but this all takes time and money. I was not hurt or at least I do not think so (ie. picking up some type of bug from the string) However, I am not sure what I should do. At a minimum I feel Subway should do some sort of investigation on this and I feed the state health department should be notified. I many times take my children to Subway and if this had happened to them I would have been very angry. What should I do? Is this worth pursueing or an honest mistake. At first I thought this was no big deal, but then I got to thinking, what else could have been in that sandwich?

Its not worth your time to do anything because you aren't going to get anything out of it.

I disagree 100%............th emor enoise you make , the sorrier they will be in the long run...............Raise ####, call the health dept, save the string !!!!!!

Report it to the health department so they can do their job of keeping food establishments safe for the public.

Instead of spending your time and gas to go back to the Subway store, drop the string in an envelope and mail it to the local health department office with an explanatory note or letter.

Ever bit into a fingernail from a hamburger at a well known burger joint??? Nasty!!!!!!!!!!! Not eaten a burger from that place in years...

If you think that's bad, here's one that'll make you cringe.

About 6 years ago I open a small container of yogurt and take a spoonful. I noticed a peculiar taste and smell. It kind of smelled like a band-aid does. After digging around in it, sure enough I pull out a piece of medical gauze about an inch square.

Who knows what was on it because the yogurt being white with red strawberry chunks on it would be the same color as a used chunk of gauze. :9

No more yogurt for me.

Hey guys I have news for ya. You know some of those pimpily faced kids that work at fast (and sometimes not so fast) food places . Well I have hired some of them (for other work) years after they stopped working there and have listened to some of their stories. You won't believe some of the things they do to your food. Esp to nasty people , or just people they don't like or esp poor tippers,..its been said that waters and waitress have amazing memories about the latter. I would tell you some but I just ate my lunch and rather not upset MYSELF!

That's pretty bad, I had something worse happen to me about ten years! I was on a bus trip with my hockey team, we stopped at a BAKERS SQUARE for lunch. My buddy and I were the first ones off the bus and the first ones to be seated. Well after watching the rest of the team and parents get their food I asked the waitress why we hadn't been served yet, and that we were the first to sit. She told me it was coming right out and they were very busy. Ten minutes later I asked her again as we still hadn't recieved our food, the rest of the team were finishing their meals. She got pretty snotty and walked back into the kitchen. 2 minutes later she brought our "cold" food out, obviously had been sitting there for a half hour! Now this is were the story turns from bad to worse! My buddy and I were very hungry and didn't want to say anything else, so we dug in. The very first thing I do to my french fries is put salt and pepper on them, so as I'm shuffling through the fries to get pepper on all of them, I SPOTTED SOMETHING, a half dozen short and curlys "pubes"!!! I freaked out and my buddy being the comedien falls on the floor laughing his azz off. Of course this gathered the attention of the Manager "who almost puked" and everyone else in the joint! The manager told me I could have anything on the menu and she would cover it! I told her no thanks and as I was walking out I made sure everyone in the resteraunt knew what had happened, ya should have seen that place clear out!! What did I do, walked across the lot and went to Subway LOL. Obviously not a much better choice! To this day the guys off that team call me "CURLY"! I geuss it fits!!

I'll think of that everytime I order "curly fries" from now on.

If no one wants to give you a contact name it's safe to assume someone was playing a gross trick. I worked at a video rental store in the evenings and the store manager didn't work after 5:30 pm. If there was a complaint we would take the customer's name and phone number and the manager would try one time to call the customer, otherwise we told the customer when the manager would be in the store. Chances are those kids had been in trouble before and were/are trying cover their azzes. I am surprised they got it in there when the make it right in front of you, must have been a contest.
