Get Ready To See Michelle Obama's Face Plastered All Over Your Local Subway Sandwich Shop
Independent Journal Review ^ | Jan 23 2014 | IJ Review

Posted on 01/23/2014 8:39:41 AM PST by hattend

The first lady was expected to announce Thursday that the Subway sandwich chain will spend $41 million over three years to encourage finicky young eaters to eat more food that comes out of the ground or grows on trees. The announcement was being made at a Subway shop near the White House.

Subway will only offer a kids’ menu that mirrors federal standards for school lunches. That includes offering apples on the side and low-fat or nonfat plain milk or water as a default beverage.

I’ve already written Subway on their website that if they use this racist, Marie Antionette, Jane Fonda loving hypocrite as their spokesperson, I’ll be eating my subs at Quiznos or Jersey Mike’s.

7000+ comments at the site are running about 100% against Subway running with this.

Don't panic Subway! The comments are negative only because Michelle alone would not be diverse enough. Just pair Michelle with Pajama Boy and everything will work out fine.

I WILL stop by my local Subway restaurants to tell them I will not be patronizing them as long as any photo of this patronizing “First Lady” adorns their walls.

God dang it ... Well, it’s onto Jersey Mike’s for me — subs are far better anyway, and I get tired of seeing illegals putting together my subs anyway.

The first time I see her face there will be the last time I eat there. And I will make a public scene telling the manager why.

I see no reason to make a scene. All that will do is draw attention to your own unpleasant behavior, rather than the issue at hand. Besides, the manager no doubt is required to adhere to whatever decisions are passed down from Corporate Headquarters, so yelling at him will do nothing but annoy him.

Instead, I would calmly state that I don't agree with Michelle Obama's stance on government-mandated nurtitional requirements, and that I don't wish to be reminded of someone with whom I disagree when patronizing a private business. Therefore, I will henceforth avoid all Subway restaurants until such time as her picture is removed. Then, just turn around and walk out.

If enough people do this, Subway will get the message, and Michelle's pictures will come down.

What is really strange is Subway is sinking 41 MILLION dollars over 3 years to promote this. How much does a promotional poster run nowadays? They must be gold plated.

A couple of thousand should cover it, I wonder if the other millions are going to pay for Mooch’s trips?

Go into Subway, order a sub, have them make it. Then point to the picture and the sub, tell them to stuff it.

Is it? LOL I haven’t eaten at a Subway in about 15 years. Their sandwiches were all bread then and the bread was dry. I have never been one for cold sandwiches.

I have never understood why corporations take political positions—and promoting this damn ugly woman is by implication, supporting the Administration and their accursed “healthy foods” policy.

As with others on this thread, if I see her mug on a Subway wall I will immediately talk to the manager, explain why his company is run by dolts, and walk out.

If Subway pastes up posters of Michelle it will commit
retail suicide which will be fun to watch.

“A couple of thousand should cover it, I wonder if the other millions are going to pay for Mooch’s trips?”

Maybe Subway is looking to get an exception to Obamacare?
