Healthy Subway meals

At Subway, size and customization matter as much as the sandwich name. Bread length, extra protein, cheese and sauce can turn one menu item into very different meals.

How to order at Subway

  • Compare six-inch and footlong portions directly; a footlong is not just a label change—it is roughly twice the food.
  • Extra vegetables add volume, while cheese and sauces change energy and sodium more substantially.
  • A salad can be protein-forward when it includes a real protein portion; dressing remains part of the meal.
