"There's something about a Subway tuna sandwich that hits different. It's fishy, meaty, creamy, and fresh, and feels fully loaded without ever turning the bread into a soggy mess. While it's usually tough to recreate many fast-food favorites at home - thanks to the extra additives and processing that usually go into them - Subway's tuna sandwich is one of those rare ones that you could get close to."
""When I worked at Subway 2012-2014, we literally just used tuna and Mayo, nothing else," someone wrote, failing to mention proportions or brands (in fact, no one's quite sure what brand of mayonnaise Subway uses - but it's likely Kraft or Hellman's)."
""They use tuna in olive oil, they use a food processor to mix the oil into the tuna and grind it up quickly... Then they add high-quality mayonnaise and mix once more in the processor.""
The Subway tuna sandwich combines fishy, meaty, creamy, and fresh textures while avoiding soggy bread. Reported core ingredients are canned tuna and mayonnaise, with some employees noting only those two components. Anecdotes describe liberal mayonnaise use and competitions to add more. Some accounts specify tuna packed in olive oil and advise using a food processor to blend the oil into the tuna, then adding high-quality mayonnaise and processing again for a smooth texture. Removing as much liquid from the tuna before mixing helps prevent soggy bread. Home cooks are encouraged to experiment with proportions to match personal preference.
