When sold with a drink and a cookie, the round sandwich formed what was known as a Kids' Pak for just under $2.50. Another version of the Kids' Pak was advertised for $3.69 and included the round sandwich, fruit punch, and a Fruit Roll-Ups snack served with a toy. "I used to order them all the time as a kid," wrote one Redditor. But children weren't the only ones enjoying this treat - some recall eating the sandwiches as college students or with their grandparents. Now, however, the item has become one of those fast food classics we may never get back.

California is the US state with the most Subway locations, at 1,985 as of July 2025 (via ScrapeHero). Not far behind is Texas with 1,813 stores. Texas is also home to the US city with the most Subway restaurants, Houston, with 203 total. Coming in third place is Florida with 1,181 locations, followed by Ohio with 935 and Illinois with 910.

My dad and I would take the Metro into his office in D.C. on long summer days (I was under the guise I had a job, but I'm sure he was just giving my mom a break) and, in lieu of packing lunch, we'd walk down to the corner Subway store around noon. I don't frequent the chain as much in my adulthood; when a sandwich craving hits, I'm more likely to make my own Italian sub.

Subway's cookies have been ranked the absolute worst fast food restaurant option. The chocolate cookie with white chocolate chips was described as grainy and overly sweet.

Fans of 'Happy Gilmore' can immerse themselves in the character's world during a pop-up event in Santa Monica, featuring scenes, minigolf, and food from the films.

On a rainy day, I endeavored to find out which roast beef sub reigns supreme between Jimmy John's 'Big John' and Subway's offering, both popular chains.
