Letter to the Editor Feb. 23, 2013

To the Editor:

In reponse to Rebecca Todd's sub-standard report on Subway, I'd like to note that Subway offers more vegetables than any other fast food restaurant there is. I have never had a soggy sandwich and the slimming portions of meat is an asset, not a liability.

The idea that it's only 11 inches instead of 12 can only be a health asset as well.

With the current health crisis being mainly of our own making due to our lifestyle choices which is substantiated by the CDC and every other organization there is, it stands to reason that Subway is one of the best fast food restaurants there is.

Spending only $5 for a sandwich which can include whole wheat bread and tons of veggie and no mayonnaise can only help the sad state of health in our country!

Rebecca, get up to date on the health issues facing our population today. It's shameful! Adding more bread, more meat, and more mayo will only make it worse. I have never had mayo on a sandwich from Subway and neither had any of my family members including two children!

We should be very happy that Subway has made a comeback in recent years and at least offers the options of tons of health inducing veggies!

Sincerely,

Amy Hayden

    I am writing this letter to thank and to acknowledge the great and swift job that the Wayne Township Fire Department did, as well as the ambulance, in responding to a medical emergency in our household on May 15.

  • Where’s the outrage over White House’s Benghazi fairy tale?

    It is worth mentioning that more Americans were killed by the terrorist attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya, last Sept. 11, than were killed by the recent terrorist attack at the Boston Marathon.

  • Farewell to a friend

    I hate dog movies. In dog movies, the good, loyal, lovable dog always dies at the end and I end up sitting there in the dark with big tears streaming down my cheeks.

  • Where the buck stops

    Mr. President, the buck stops with you.

    President Truman set that standard, with these very words posted on a sign on his Oval Office desk.

    But now, with over a thousand days left in this second Obama administration, we find a Nixonian stench emerging from the “W. House.”

  • The media’s tea party moment

    Rarely has the White House briefing room so resembled the main ballroom at a meeting of the Conservative Political Action Conference.

  • It’s a barnyard fashion show

    I’ve not kept it a secret that I find people who dress their dogs in clothes to be, to put it nicely, somewhat more than just eccentric. And many friendly, helpful readers out there have not kept it a secret that they really wish I would not express my views about dogs dressed as humans.

  • Seizure of AP phone records an insult to independent press

    Distrust of government secrecy has been elevated to an exceptional level with the disclosure the Justice Department covertly examined two months of Associated Press phone records to determine who leaked details to the AP about a foiled terrorist plot.

  • Food regulations of the future?

    The federal government recently announced new regulations for buying fast food.

  • ‘Patriot’ games at the IRS

    It sounds like the plot from a dystopian libertarian novel. The word “patriot” and the phrase “educating on the Constitution and Bill of Rights” triggered heightened scrutiny from the most intrusive agency in the federal government.

  • Is it squirrel season already?

    The action at the bird feeder has been spectacular lately: Cardinals, finches, songbirds in impressive variety crowding around all day long in search of sustenance. It is truly gratifying …

    For my neighbor.

    That’s what it’s like at his feeder.
