Summary
Anna Tollison has filed a class action lawsuit against Subway, claiming its Steak & Cheese sandwich is falsely advertised to appear as if it contains 200% more meat than it actually does.
Tollison alleges that Subway’s misleading advertising causes consumers to overpay, which is concerning due to inflation.
Her lawyer said that while such cases often face dismissal, if this one proceeds, it could lead to compensation and class certification, allowing affected customers to seek refunds for the alleged misrepresentation.
This is just one of the reasons we need deregulation. It’s a huge nuisance that we are not allowed to make false advertising. /s
Think of all the innovative swindling we could do in an unregulated market! Think of the profits!!!
Think of how delicious a deceptively-advertised Trump steak will look!

FWIW, my teenager will only eat meatball subs if it comes to sandwiches (not even PB&J) and only if it comes from Subway.
Sigh.
My step kid won’t eat PBJs, corn dogs, and thinks they like grilled cheese, but has yet to eat more than a few bites of restaurant grilled cheese. They love crab legs and lobster. My wallet is crying.
Sounds almost exactly like mine. She also won’t eat reheated leftovers of stuff she likes.

Why can’t Subway just give this woman the meat she paid for?
She should have went to Arby’s.
Arby’s | We Have The Meats
Even Arbys has shrunk things down. And don’t get me started on them removing potato cakes!!!
Ridiculous! It’s more like 400% more.
Don’t those photos always have a small print disclaimer on them that says the actual product may not look like that or something along those lines? Is that enough to protect them in a lawsuit?
serving suggestion. Picture contains ingredients from 8 actual sandwiches
One could say this case has more substance than a subway sandwich.
