Jimmy John's - Not very impressed

Not really a motorcycle or travel topic, but I finally found my way into a Jimmy Johns here in Sioux City. This chain was really popular with some people so I decided to stop and grab a sandwich to take back to work after I finished running some lunch time errands. What a disappointment.

White bread only, no choices, no toasted bread, boring cheese, confusing setup, and it feels really, really rushed. I don't need stress on my lunch break and I like having at least a few minutes of downtime to reflect on the day. The sandwich was too chewy, tasted like they piled on the salt, included only mayo, and was a pretty darned boring sandwich. Reasoning I can make better sandwiches then this, I was totally unimpressed. I think the reason Jimmy Johns is so popular here is it is new. I give them three years before they fold up and leave town. Meanwhile I'll be sticking with Subway, Blimpies, and Quiznos.
