Low Carb -- Subway

[wovenwonder]

The Subway sandwich chain Monday rolled out a new low-carb sandwich option for Atkins-style dieters, offering every sandwich on the menu as a tortilla roll-up.
Two new combinations - a turkey-bacon melt with Monterey-cheddar cheese and a chicken-bacon-ranch roll-up with Swiss cheese - were unveiled to launch the line; they're priced at $4.49. Both have fewer than 11 net carbohydrates, and changes in the tortilla recipe will reduce the total to below 9 net carbs in a few weeks, the company said. The tortilla will have fewer than 5 net carbs, compared with at least 30 carbs in Subway's standard roll. The low-carb roll-ups will become available nationally Jan. 1.

JODY!!!! THANKS FOR POSTING THIS!!

DH and I are HUGE Subway fans and I've been missing it! This will be a wonderful alternative to those Wendy's salads I've been eating and MUCH lower on the carb count.

You've brightened my day, Jody!!

Awesome!!
This is great news!

I love Subway!

That is terrific news! I love Subway too. It's right in the food court of my local mall and I used to eat there until I tried Atkins.

Yippee!

I figured they would do this soon! They can't fool people forever with those Jared ads!! LOL!

I can't wait to try their new rollups!!

I used to laugh at Jared also till my DH lost 110 lbs in a little over a year on a Subway diet.

Wow - 110 pounds!! Just goes to show you that every body is different. If what you're doing isn't working, just try something else! Good for your DH, Samandmom!!

 

[Rhonda]

That is truly amazing! If I ate that much bread every day, I would gain 110 pounds in no time! LOL!

Yup - every body is different, and they all react differently to different foods! Congratulations to him on his loss!

Boy, its amazing how the food industry is bending over backwards all the sudden to please the dieting industry. It's about time. Wonder why it took so long. I think it's a big start, and they all have so much room to go!

Wow-110 pounds on subway. AWESOME. I eat subway alot. It's a great low points meal and it really is filling!

Oh, Good!

There is a subway right next to one of my jobs(--I have several). I was wondering what I was going to eat from there when we start the SBD next month.

 

[Beanie]

This is excellent news, Jody!! Thanks so much for posting the information! I live right next to Subway and DH and myself love to eat there!

 

[perfectmatch300]

Thanks for the info, Jody. I'm now looking forward to going to Subway again! I've been avoiding them since I started Atkins much to my DH's dismay. He'll be happy about being able to go there again too.

I'm so happy! I love Subway but had to use 3 of my bread allowances for one sandwich (I'm on Deal A Meal). I wonder what the exchanges for the tortilla will be?
