When you're getting a sandwich for lunch, do you like to see the meats or cheeses sliced directly in front of you? Do you prefer the speed associated with pre-sliced? Do you not care either way — you're just trying to eat? This the question that Subway has wrestled with and it seems as though they've decided that custom-sliced is the way of the future.
As Salon's Ashlie D. Stevens wrote back in August of last year, "The addition of the meat slicers was first announced last week at the company's franchise convention in Las Vegas."
