Subway Restaurants introduce Fresh Fit menu

Subway restaurants released a new nationwide Fresh Fit menu in their stores yesterday, in hopes of promoting 'better for you' food choices for adults and children. Apparently the menus have been designed to suit active lifestyles, meet the American Heart Association's nutritional standards, and help combat childhood obesity.

Adult combo meals include a choice of one of their existing low-fat 6" sub sandwiches that contain six grams of fat or less, your choice of Diet Coke, water, or 1% milk, as well as your choice of sliced apples, raisins, or Baked Lay's. The combo meal for kids is quite similar, though just a little smaller and with a few less choices. They will receive a 4" low-fat sub, 1% milk or apple juice, and the choice of raisins or apples.

Apparently though, the introduction of this new menu comes with the removal of their low-carb wraps. Formerly displaying the Atkins logo, the wraps remained on the menu even after they stopped advertising them under the diet chain name. Further proof that the low-fat rather than low-carb trend has once again arrived.

Wait...so are they no longer selling the wraps? Or is it just not on the menu anymore?

Yeah, I liked those wraps. I'm hoping they keep 'em around.

Is the only new thing about these the apple/raisin option or am I missing something?

The low carb wraps are gone, but now they have white wraps. So, wraps are still on the menu.

3000+ mg of sodium for all 12 inch sandwiches and no whole wheat bread. It isn't THAT healthy.
