I hate that...smell that is on your clothes the rest of the day. It smells like dirty feet or something.
I used to work at Subway many years ago. So I'm not a fan of their food after working with it all for so long. I'm not too big of a fan of cold cuts and other stuff that is over-processed or, in the case of the tuna and seafood-like product, drowned in mayo.
Every Subway gets its dough pre-mixed as frozen sticks with all the ingredients, including yeast, already portioned out. Those sticks are then thawed and proofed so they rise and are ready to bake.
The problem is that over a decade or so the yeast managed to migrate throughout the shop. Every year the ice machine would break down due to its close proximity to the proofer and oven combo unit.
Or how about draining cans of tuna, pickles, black olives, jalapeño and banana pepper slices? And having all those lovely juices combine into one toxic stew? That smell, even when not combined, is still horrid. And don't forget about the fresh onions that need to be cleaned, peeled and sliced.
And then there's the cleaning solutions and sanitizers. Everything had to be cleaned and ready for the next morning. By the end of the night I needed a shower.
I reeked of that place. So it's no wonder that the Yeastie Boys and the byproducts thereof may be hitchin' along with you for the ride. :-(
Frank Zappa sung abut the Dangerous Kitchen. While this wasn't as gnarly as what's described within his song due to health regulations it was still gnarly. At least Subway doesn't use the "U-Gouge" anymore.
