Jalepeno Shortage hits Subway!

@Ozchick (#2) – KFC Hawker is the worst KFC in the world in my opinion. They are always out of something or other, or screw up the order. They are basically incompetent, and I wouldn’t be surprised if the bread shortage was due to their own failings rather than what they blamed it on.

try red rooster in wanniassa. hawker kfc disappears into insignificance next to the blunders on offer there.

I tried growing jalapenos and habaneros in my vegies this year but neither fruited :(. any advice?

I am devastated also, deezagood, but unfortunately not surprised.

I suffer from a rare but chronic condition whereby everything I like is discontinued.

So I can only apologise for having liked the wraps, as I am afraid I am to blame for their demise.

Just don’t get me started on Callard & Bowser Nougat ….

That doesn’t affect me because I always go the wrap. But my family don’t seem to mind the puns too much.

Granny – I have some alarming news for you … my local Subway told me that the wraps will soon be no more; they are ‘phasing them out’! I was devastated (yes, I need to get out more 🙂

The sign at subway says something like “Ask for the lot (does not include Jalapenos)”

So when they ask what salads I want(I hate how they ask what salads I want, salads implies just, however a collection of vegetables makes up just one salad on your sub, so it should be asked “What do you want your salad to comprise of, but in saying so I saw a duck once) I say the lot, but no jalapenos, and they look and say the lot does not includes jalapenos anyway, so I shrug and say ok, if I just ask for the lot, they include jalapenos anyway.

What can you do ?

When I get a sub with Jalapenos they never give me very many, so I ask for more and they put more on because they are all out of bad puns.

Ask them to put more on.

It’s what I always do. They seem to take it as a personal challenge to see how many they can shove on.

Last week I went into Subway and asked for a Turkey footlong.

When we got to the salads bit, I said, “I’ll have it without Jalapenos”. The young lass behind the counter said, “we’re out of Jalapenos”. And then I said, “Oh OK, well I’ll have it without olives then”.

She just look at me.

Ask for extra jalapenos, I do and they always put more on. Maybe it’s my fault?
BTW the olives at Subway are crap, kind of metallic taste.

It’s all good, I’ll give them some of my habaneros that they can use instead… tee hee hee.

About this time last year Subway at Belco lake had a sign saying something along the lines of “due to a nationwide lettuce shortage we are only able to provide minimal lettuce on your sandwich. We hope this doesn’t cause any inconvenience”.

I thought it was strange as McDonalds and the other fast food chains didn’t seem to be having the same problem.

Well there were plenty of pickled and fresh jalapenos in the US during Feb. I’d love to buy a giant jar of them at Walmart, the thing is like a gallon and you need two hands to lift it, cost under $5, but I cannot work out how to bring it home.

So plan B is to pickle my own, I have found some recipes that look like they get the same result.

They didn’t use mice then? KFM?

> But I’m on a diet now

I doubt jalepenos are fattening…in fact, hot food speeds up your metabolism & aids in losing weight (not that japapenos are actually very hot).

I doubt you’ll get jalapenos unless I go looking for ’em, PM … however, I did have jalapenos on my Subway just last week!

But I’m on a diet now.

*sigh*

I bought a KFC Tower Burger the other week at KFC Hawker and their supplier didn’t supply the bread for it, so I had to get it in an alternative bread roll. Very disappointing…

yeah, i saw that the other day.

Pfft.
