I can understand your anger but that doesn't have anything to do with Quiznos--you'd find that at just about any business that doesn't require skilled employees.

Is this a serious question?

What country do you think it was in. Was CANADIAN Legion a clue?

In Post #15 you did not say what country you were in. I honestly didn't know if this was in an American Quiznos or some other country.....sorry I couldn't exactly tell what country you were referring to. I could have guessed, but I didn't. Thats why I asked what country it was in. I even looked at your profile (to give me a clue where you live) and see that you are from cowtown...I don't know where that is either.

I didn't see where you mentioned the Canadian legion either?

The following is a good example of what ACA520 says is gross.

The Poppy is an important Canadian symbol of respect and remembrance. If one particular franchise didn't allow a box to be placed in there, I'd probably be angry with that particular locale too, but I wouldn't resent the entire line.

Chacun son gout, though.

The Poppy is also California's state flower........also a symbol that we respect, although for a completely different reason

I agree with you Bush Lady and that is why we seldom eat out. I have found that homecooking is so much better for our health and our pocketbook

Since my Mom's heart condition, just about every one in the family decided to go on a reduced sodium diet.
It's amazing how much excessive salt is added to many common foods.
Soups for instance.
I wouldn't consider Campbell's soups anymore..... even their reduced sodium products seem high in sodium compared to other brands.
It's as if salt is being used as a cover up for bland/poor tasting foods.
