When I was a flight attendant and we served inflight meals, the stench from the preservatives gave me a horrible headache that lasted long after the flight. My husband got a sandwich from Subway several years ago and it was the same chemical smell. He never went back.
Pretty sure that’s what happened to Smollet when he claims he was accosted by MAGA hat wearing goons in sub zero temps in Chiraq a few years ago. He was on his way back from buying a subway tuna sandwich. It’s all crystal clear now.
