Start for freeSubway's New Snack Line: Worth Your Dough?
Welcome back, everyone, to our series where we try things before you decide to buy them. In today's exploration, we're delving into Subway's newly introduced footlong line of snacks. With a tempting array of treats including a footlong cookie, pretzel, and Cinnabon churro, we're here to give you the lowdown on whether these snacks are worth your time and money.
The Footlong Cookie: A Sweet Surprise?
Starting with the footlong cookie, priced at $5, it promises a larger-than-life take on Subway's traditional cookies. At first glance, its size is impressive, boasting a thickness that rivals that of a cake. However, this also means that the texture leans more towards cake-like than the expected crunchy exterior of a classic cookie. Despite this, the taste remains true to Subway's standard - if you enjoy their regular cookies, this footlong version delivers the same flavor in a more substantial form. Our verdict? It's a novel snack but might not surpass the original in terms of satisfaction.
The Cinnabon Churro: A Crunchy Conundrum
The footlong Cinnabon churro, priced at $2, initially excites with its aromatic cinnamon scent. Unfortunately, the texture leaves much to be desired. Described as 'hard as a rock', it's a far cry from the soft, chewy delight that churros are known for. This textural mishap significantly detracts from the overall experience, making it a snack we'd likely pass on in the future.
The Footlong Pretzel: An Overcooked Disappointment
Priced at $3, the footlong pretzel from Subway aims to replicate the beloved taste of Auntie Anne's (or Auntie An's, depending on your locale). While the size and appearance are promising, the execution falls short. Overcooking has led to a chewy, almost leathery texture, overshadowing the otherwise enjoyable flavor. For pretzel aficionados, our advice is to stick to dedicated pretzel outlets rather than opting for Subway's version.
Final Thoughts: Is Subway's Snack Line a Hit or Miss?
In summation, Subway's foray into footlong snacks presents a mixed bag. The footlong cookie stands out as the most palatable option, albeit with a texture more akin to cake than cookie. The churro and pretzel, however, suffer from significant textural issues that detract from their overall appeal. If curiosity gets the better of you, the cookie may be worth a try, but for the other items, your snack cravings might be better satisfied elsewhere.
