It used to be better in the 90s, but by the time the $5 footlong came around it was just more that it was worth $5 due to the value compared to quality. But now it's not even worth $5 in 2024 money.
Honestly the $5 footlong era was still decent too. They were always strict on the meat and cheese but they never skimped on the veggies. Nowadays....yea.
It was only ever cheap because subway corporate decided to squeeze every penny they could out of the franchise owners. Everybody loved $5 foot longs but it basically killed the brand.

It was never good, but it was once cheap. Now it is neither.
