subway
Question
I am not sure of the general guidelines that inform an answer, therefore I hesitate to generalize from answers to prior questions. Specifically is it permissable to eat a tuna sandwich from "Subway" with lettuce and tomato? Is any other produce(peppers, onions, etc) permissable? Thanks
Answer
Answered by Aaron AbadiYou can have the bread at Subway, but only the types without cheese. You can have them put Tuna on that. All items should be retrieved with clean hands, cut with a clean knife, and prepared on a clean surface. Any Kosher uncooked vegetables can be added, but only if the store is clean and you don't see the veggies and stuff mixed, and no pieces in the tomatoes. Subways are usually very clean. The owners are used to accommodating Jews, Arabs, Indians, and vegetarians. Here are the breads that are OK: CARB-CONSCIOUS WRAP: Water, wheat gluten, corn starch, oat fiber, soy oil, isolated soy protein, soy flour, salt, sesame flour, calcium sulfate, contains 2% or less of: unbleached wheat flour, acacia gum, wheat bran, sodium aluminum phosphate, sodium bicarbonate, calcium propionate (a preservative), guar gum, fumaric acid, potassium sorbate, monoglycerides, sucralose, l. cysteine, enzyme.
