    With Subway and it’s franchise system, it makes me wonder if they aren’t trying to intentionally tank 90% of the stores and rejig the whole operation, or potentially get rid of the franchises altogether. I have nothing to base this on, no education, no recent reading, nothing. I haven’t stepped foot in a subway since the oughts, and I had a chicken bacon ranch and the chicken was chewy to the point it brought back the memory of my brother telling me to get pata tacos in Mexico City.

      That, I recall, was corporate Subway’s strategy with franchises: they’d open a corporate store next to any successful franchise and run them out if they didn’t incorporate the franchisee into a store manager.
