  1. I think Subway's Meatball Marinara (fully loaded) is the best sub on
    their menu.

    You just *couldn't* make a sub that nice at home.

    A foot long gets too messy to eat though.

    Anyone agree?

    I do think I could make one better, at least the bread would be better.

    I'd roll it all up in a low carb tortilla.

    Yeah I agree, it tastes really good but you definately need to sit at a
    table to eat it.

    A meatball sub is one of the easiest sandwiches to make.

    I don't care for their brown & serve wonderbread rolls. I make a much
    better sub at home by picking up some good rolls at the Italian bakery,
    splitting some homemade meatballs and spooning on some sauce.

    Um, now that's an oxymoroon... there is no such thing as meatball
    marinara.

    Yeah but what's in it? Any artificial flavouring agents?

    Evidently there is now.

    Presumably it's meatballs in a marinara sauce - what's oxymoronic
    about that?

    Sure. Why not? Stewball was a racehorse (and I wish he were mine...).

    Agree, and I forgot to mention that a thawed out foodservice meatball is
    not even close in taste to a real meatball that has been nicely browned.

    right, a sauce *used* by fishermen, not made of fish.

    That's the only reason I still goto Subway, for all other sandwiches,
    it's Quiznos.

    Soon as meat is added to the dish it's no longer marinara... by your
    logic (illogic) adding tube steak to vegetarian beans the dish is
    still vegetarian.

    Perhaps if Subway's meatballs are anything like their other so-called
    meat products... they should call it Mystery Marinara.

    No, it has no fish or seafood in it. It's name derives from what it was
    often served with, just as a puttanesca sauce derives from the putas
    who at it.

    Here's a summary:

    "Marinara sauce is a basic meatless tomato sauce, probably considered
    the precursor of all ragu¹ and tomato sauces of Italy. In spite of the
    name (the word ³marinara² refers to seafood), the sauce has no fish in
    it."
