So much for free health care you lying idiotsSubway bread is not bread, Irish court rules
Judge finds that sugar content of US chain’s sandwiches exceeds stipulated limit and they should thus be classified as confectionery
Too much sugar in it apparently.
5 times the legal limit.
Thats a bit naughty. They sell it as a healthy snack food.
Ketchup makers in the US are limited on the amount of sugar they can put in their products. I thought that was bad enough - that government is telling people how to make their goods.Reminds me of an insane ruling by our own Supreme Court here in the U.S., that ruled that a tomato is not a fruit.
Same general madness —a ruling based on absurd regulatory criteria rather than on objective fact.
Subway is trying to be exempt from the VAT tax, they are making shit up saying it's not bread to much sugar in it.Ketchup makers in the US are limited on the amount of sugar they can put in their products.

I didn't read the OP's link, but if the Irish government is telling Subway to change their recipe (and apparently they are), then they're just as bad as the US.

Promoting the general welfare obviously includes promoting better health among the citizenry. If lead paint were to be found toxic after children (nationally) fell ill after ingesting its chips, the government would be expected to address the problem. Similarly, when it has become evident that an epidemic of diabetes is now affecting people worldwide, it is quite reasonable to expect governments to try and stem the tide. What never makes sense is for governments to defend or promote private profit seeking, internally divisive interests over the interests of the people in general.We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
Hoagie size Twinkies. Generally speaking, sugar substitutes don't help. They may help keep your weight down but you're still apt to get diabetes. Diet and exercise are what count, especially when it runs in the family. Stop drinking soda and "fizzy water." Limit your consumption of fast rising, white flour products (rolls, pizza, bagels, donuts, cakes,..). All are slow acting poisons. We are what we eat.If not bread, does the sugar make it cake?

They are telling Subway that they can't label it as bread.

That just looks toxic.
That just looks toxic.
Not in Ireland.That just looks toxic.
Tastes like cancer. But, it's still bread. A combination of flour, water, yeast, salt, and sugar.

Its a cake not bread.Food needs to be labelled honestly so that the consumer can make informed choices. Big food fights that every step of the way.Maybe it's the government who's now lying to Subway's customers.They are telling Subway that they can't label it as bread.

If Subway thinks their bread is bread, and if their customers think their bread is bread, too, then why does Dublin think it can come and tell them any different? Does that country have a standardized definition for bread?
Seems like a sandwich maker would have a better definition for bread than a government would.
