13:50 Yes. Our labeling laws are much more strict. Every little thing has to be individually listed. Which is why the UK will say mozzarella, where as in the U.S. it will say mozzarella, and then EVERYTHING in that mozzarella is listed in the parenthesis.
@@jamesmatthewneeland5707 I was doing some research after watching this video and it looks like the US is at the top in terms of organic food sales. I'm wondering if there's some correlation between that and having all these ingredients listed. Thinking about my shopping habits in the past year or so, I have been noticing myself buying more local "organic" type things. Even if Americans don't understand what those things mean, I think this is one area where the US does have it right.
@Sammykid2 reminds me of when people were trolling bottled water companies by asking if their product contained dihydrogen oxide and saying how its a deadly chemical that can kill and some fell for it saying no our product only contains water… 🤦♂️
Every single ingredient must be listed in the US. Moreover, we use the scientific names instead the common names. Restaurants receive huge fines for not posting the list.
The US food doesn't have more ingredients, it's required by law to list everything in them and break those ingredients down that way. The ingredients list in the UK would be basically identical if they were required to list the same level of detail in what the food contains as the US.
This might be an area where the US weirdly has it right. It's certainly made Americans in the past 30 years at least more aware of what they're putting into their body even if they don't understand what "Lake" food dye or Propylene glycerol is. If the same laws were a thing in Britain, a lot of the same stuff would appear on their ingredients list. As of 2020, organic food sales were worth $50 billion in the United States. I know there's some debate about the impact organic farming impacts the environment but the data is saying Americans are looking at other methods in how they obtain food.
@@chaost4544 Well, it is right but it is used very poorly. By creating a wall of text it actually makes many people not want to read it. The mathematical approach with brackets along with difficult or often hidden percentages within the labeling also makes people not want to figure out what is included.
@@SpoonHurler well no, because "seqsoning" that is in some European labels can make my mom almost die because they don't say that they specifically have peppers. Or my cousins to maybe have a seizure because it has a certain dye in it, these labels we get in the US are amazing.
@@Kirinketsu_ Not just that, but the US has stricter guidelines when it comes to labeling ingredients. Which is why in the US the ingredient list much longer for the same exact product with the same exact ingredients.
100K!!! Congrats Blokes, I’ve been here since around 37k subs, would love for you guys to react to Insider’s ‘Recruits in the US Military and or Marines’ videos. Good on ya Mates!
I'm not sure what subway they're going to where you don't just go "I'd like X amount of cookies" and you just say how many you want; plus if you walk into a normal subway and ask for 36 cookies they'll only have like 10 left
Not sure if they still have it but the southwest steak and cheese wrap was the best thing they had at subway here in the US. It was shredded steak, pepper jack cheese, jalapeños, onions, guacamole, and siracha in a sun-ripped tomato wrap. That thing was heavenly.
The piquant bite of the banana peppers plus the genuine heat of the jalapenos with some onions and bell peppers on the Meatball sub is probably the most flavorful fast food item you can buy.
In the U.S, we are required to list all subcomponents of everything, for instance in the UK, they might list mozzarella, and in the US we would list mozzarella, along with everything in the mozzarella
Canadian Broadcast "CBC" program called Marketplace did an episode on a bunch of fast food chains regarding how much chicken vs filer was being used in their chicken products. Most chicken nearly at 90% but Subway had only 42% chicken in its chicken strips and 53% chicken in its roasted chicken the rest was soy protein. It was also found the grill marks on their chicken were "painted" on. Subway tried suing CBC for $210 million claiming their own scientific evidence claimed only 1% of their chick was filler, but it was dismissed by the Ontario Superior Court. Subway claimed they were going to appeal the dismissal but I don't think they ever did. If I recall shortly after this they changed their menu.
The US does have some strict laws on food product labels due to back in the day them being so lax that US meats were banned by many other nations for their subpar made famous the precautions or lack there of in the time by the book " The Jungle". This made then president Teddy Roosevelt go after them hard leading to the modern strict laws on food packaging and labeling. IDK about UK food laws though so they may be more or less strict than here in the US.
The EU didnt adopt similar label restrictions until 2014/2016 and they are still nowhere in depth as the US, they seem to not even list sodium only table salt and use number and not scientific names which I guess is why things in US food seem scary to them.
You are absolutely correct that the US has to disclose more than the UK. But also we have to disclose the chemical name for some reason instead of just saying vitamin B2-B12 which is what a lot of the “ additives” end up being if you look into what is “ riboflavin” for example…
in the USA you have to state every single ingredient because there is a law that you have to be transparent with the nutritional value and ingredients in our food as candy companies used to market their candy as being as nutritious as chicken . so since then thats the rule
In the US foods tend to be far more processed and contain more cheap and unhealthy ingredients in order to reduce production cost and therefore cost to the consumer. In New Zealand, it is the law to disclose ingredients but there are far fewer than what is contained in the US counterparts. For example, here, the fries are Potato, canola oil (for frying), and a preservative agent. 3 Ingredients. Whereas in the US, there are 10 different ingredients that go into their fries.
It just chaps my ass to spend money on crap food. There's soooo many places I would rather give my money to and be happy for the same price. If you like subway, you don't like good food.
Really? I haven’t eaten there in years but I remember liking it quite a bit. I always got the same sandwich though ( sweet onion terryaki sandwich I believe ) so I can’t have a real opinion . I was also much less healthy at the time so I was less sensitive to eating shit processed food. I do agree though that Taco Bell is def the worst fast food place out there. The tortillas don’t even feel real.
We do have chicken pizziola subs here in the US but it's a temporary special item that comes and goes here in the PNW. Also it's my favorite Subway sandwich.
I have always been baffled by Subway's success. I can only imagine it is for areas of the country that don't have local delis. Even grocery store subs are better than subway subs.
Who is old enough to remember when subway used to cut a small piece of the bread at the top and put the toppings in (vs cutting the bread open and filling it). The sandwich was mostly bread
The thing about Subway is that they used to let the different franchise stores use local ingredients but then changed it that all locates had to get their product from corporate. It's why the quality has slipped in the last 10 years or so. Personally, I would rather go to a Jersey Mikes's subs since you can see them slice the meat and cheeses in front of you instead of it coming out of a bag like at Subway.
13:38, in the States, by a Tremendous LAWSUIT, CORPORATIONS MUST disclose ALL ingredients to the Consumers and Populace, unlike the United Kingdom. In the United Kingdom, a Corporation may say only basic ingredients, whilst getting away with hiding the many. Good observation Dave.
I'm going to be 100% honest with you guys me and my brother love nachos and he took one look at those and said " I'd rather eat the 7-11 nachos and those give me the runs ".
FOR ANY BLOKES WHO ARE READING COMMENTS Please react to Ragged Old Flag by Johnny Cash, preferably the Super Bowl video! It gives amazing visuals. Love your videos!
I have a Subway down the street from me but I don't go to that one anymore since they messed up their chipotle sauce and one time I had my heart set on their chicken bacon ranch after a bad day at work but they ran out of bread
Its been known for about ten years that the British Food Quality laws are not nearly as strict about listing what is in a product. The FDA is tops in their regulatory industry. The food is essentially identicle, the laws about what has to be declare are what are different. That said they type of Ham seemed to be different.
Yinz finally caught on, the ingredients list isnt bad because we add so many more chemicals, everything has to be sent to a lab and they use chemistry to declare everything. The only thing that matters is preservatives but those are necessary so we waste less. The guys in the video just wanna push the narrative that the US is super unhealthy when in reality we just like choice.
Great. Now I need my foot long Italian bread turkey breast sandwich with provolone cheese (not toasted), lettuce, tomato, easy olives, easy cilantro, avocado, with the standard mayo mustard “sauce” - unless I get the garlic oil.
Yeah in the US we scientifically named the ingredients. for example our chips, sorry our"crisps" bags are filled with nitrogen air but on the bag it will say some crazy name as a "Perseverative"
If you guys ever make it to Louisville, KY go to 4th street and stop by Guy Fierri’s restaurant and get trash can nachos and a jalapeño margarita. Good stuff!!
An old but apropos joke: In heaven: Your cook is Italian. Your mechanic is German. Your policeman is English. Your lover is French. It is all organized by the Swiss. In hell: Your cook is English. Your mechanic is French. Your policeman is German. Your lover is Swiss. It is all organized by the Italians.
The weird thing I saw at subway while in the UK was an option for corn 😂🤣… I mean I’m the Native American/ Mexican but ppl in Europe love them some corn lol even on pizza like in Czech Republic 🤢🤢 lol
US labels list and are required to list in more detail than what you will find on EU food labels. EU had their food labels updated to be more inline with the US in 2014/2016 but even then its nowhere near the same information. Examples: in the US the form of sugar, oils, sodiums must all be listed where in the EU olive oil and palm oil can be listed as vegetable oil, sodiums are not listed only table salt. love how these guys also act like the US put more crap in their food when its just not listed when provided on EU labels. "Food manufacturers are required to list all ingredients in the food on the label. On a product label, the ingredients are listed in order of predominance, with the ingredients used in the greatest amount first, followed in descending order by those in smaller amounts. The label must list the names of any FDA-certified color additives (e.g., FD&C Blue No. 1 or the abbreviated name, Blue 1). But some ingredients can be listed collectively as "flavors," "spices," "artificial flavoring," or in the case of color additives exempt from certification, "artificial colors", without naming each one. Declaration of an allergenic ingredient in a collective or single color, flavor, or spice could be accomplished by simply naming the allergenic ingredient in the ingredient list." Sugar can be listed with over 40 different names based on the type of sugar being used and where it was extracted from. Sodium is another ingredient that can have many names that can sound like scary chemical names and US list all sodium and from what I read the EU only list table salt which is not the same thing. Enriched bread is refined wheat removing the outer coating bran and the germ to make white flour. This was done to allow for longer storage of the flour, the downside to this is most of vitamins, minerals, protein and carbohydrates are located in the bran and germ so white flour is enriched to add this back which is why its food sources list is so long. White flour should be a thing of the past but people have become used to the taste, textured, flavor, and even color, and well there are many staple foods made from white flour that you wouldnt like if made from wheat. (Parentheses) = name of the food source, everything being used in that and to make that ingredient [Square Brackets] are not always used but when used are to highlight the main ingredient and its food sources {Curly Brackets} are not always used but when used are to highlight additional ingredients used in the main ingredient followed by the food sources used to make that ingredient but hey most of the EU doesn't file a crime or murder in their data base unless someone was convicted to make their countries look better, I guess they are doing the same thing with their foods.
Never liked Subway. Having grown up in NJ with real German delicatessens and Italian restaurants everywhere I would never choose it over the real thing.
And yes in the US we do legally have to disclose EVERYTHING in the food not just the base contents. As far as I read the UK doesn't force anyone to go that deep, just the base ingredients.
I feel like they didn't do a good enough dive into Subway. They didn't talk about different cookie flavors or that Subway in the U.S. actually has a couple of soups. They also have two wrap options if you don't want bread. They used to have a chop salad which was replaced by their protein bowls. They have flat breads. They also have an entire breakfast menu. They have sliders which replaced a round bun sandwich. Finally, a lot of Subways even have made to order pizzas!
Subway is better if you keep what you eat simple. I love a cold cut foot long with Mayo on the bread with American cheese, lettuce, pickles, green peppers, olive oil, salt and pepper.
Yes everything that goes into food must be broken down to EVERYTHING. Not just wheT crumbs, but enriched wheat etc. water has a nutrition list and ingredients list for F’s sake!!!!
This is a WHOLE LOT of information about a subject to which I'm indifferent. You don't go to Subway for the quality. You go there because it's convenient, fast, and cheap.
@@John_Redcorn_ Jersey Mike's is about the same price with 3x the quality. They slice the meat fresh for every sub. But Subway is the largest food chain in the world so it's accessible.
Here is my personal favourite combo , try and i guarantee u will order it every single time . U take foot-long Chicken and beacon cheese melt and add , pickles , jalapeños and friend onion and to top it off u ask for chipotles/south-western souse. Trust me , u will thank me later and its all in intalian cheese and herb bread
In the United States companies are required to list the ingredients within ingredients, including every little chemical composition of those ingredients so that's why it seems like our food has a ridiculous amount of weird stuff in it.
13:50 Yes. Our labeling laws are much more strict. Every little thing has to be individually listed. Which is why the UK will say mozzarella, where as in the U.S. it will say mozzarella, and then EVERYTHING in that mozzarella is listed in the parenthesis.
Yes in the US the ingredients list is broken down a lot more many of the scary-looking/sounding things are just the scientific names for things.
If the British had the same laws we did, this stuff would be in their ingredient list.
Example: Riboflavin is Vitamin B2. Niacin is Vitamin B3.

We have to disclose the makeup of out foods to a greater extent. They have similar ingredients.

I wish they would empty the drinks into a measuring cup so we could see how much soda vs ice each cup has.
Ice is the biggest rip off ever

{Curly Brackets} are not always used but when used are to highlight additional ingredients used in the main ingredient followed by the food sources used to make that ingredient
but hey most of the EU doesn't file a crime or murder in their data base unless someone was convicted to make their countries look better, I guess they are doing the same thing with their foods.
Congrats on the 100,000 lads

BiggMo, you know it buddy 😎😎
Banana peppers are just Italian friggitelli.
Never liked Subway. Having grown up in NJ with real German delicatessens and Italian restaurants everywhere I would never choose it over the real thing.
I love hash browns, but how many carbs do you need when you're putting hash browns on a a foot long huge piece of bread?
Technically you can get as many cookies as you want, both in the UK and the US. I'd really like to see a price comparison alongside the cookie bit.
I live in Florida and I like Firehouse Subs more than Subway!
And yes in the US we do legally have to disclose EVERYTHING in the food not just the base contents. As far as I read the UK doesn't force anyone to go that deep, just the base ingredients.
Daz spitting flames with those zingers in this vid haha
I feel like they didn't do a good enough dive into Subway.
They didn't talk about different cookie flavors or that Subway in the U.S. actually has a couple of soups. They also have two wrap options if you don't want bread. They used to have a chop salad which was replaced by their protein bowls. They have flat breads. They also have an entire breakfast menu. They have sliders which replaced a round bun sandwich. Finally, a lot of Subways even have made to order pizzas!
Subway is better if you keep what you eat simple. I love a cold cut foot long with Mayo on the bread with American cheese, lettuce, pickles, green peppers, olive oil, salt and pepper.
Yes in America if you serve food you have to have all ingredients and how many calories it has
We list more because of Teddy Roosevelt establishing the FDA, which dropped the hammer on pretty much all US food disclosures
Yes everything that goes into food must be broken down to EVERYTHING. Not just wheT crumbs, but enriched wheat etc. water has a nutrition list and ingredients list for F’s sake!!!!
This is a WHOLE LOT of information about a subject to which I'm indifferent. You don't go to Subway for the quality. You go there because it's convenient, fast, and cheap.
Its not really that cheap now tho
@@John_Redcorn_ Jersey Mike's is about the same price with 3x the quality. They slice the meat fresh for every sub. But Subway is the largest food chain in the world so it's accessible.
@@willvr4 yes it is (jersey mike’s). Just wish theyd add a few more bread choices
@@John_Redcorn_ Agreed
So hard to plan your day around having bread and some toppings at home. So hard. And it takes so long to slice the bread and throw some stuff on it.
Here is my personal favourite combo , try and i guarantee u will order it every single time . U take foot-long Chicken and beacon cheese melt and add , pickles , jalapeños and friend onion and to top it off u ask for chipotles/south-western souse. Trust me , u will thank me later and its all in intalian cheese and herb bread
Do you call all tortilla chips doritos?
Subway is proper $#!t!
Jersey Mike's, Jimmy John's or Firehouse. 👍
Now only 1/10 to a million!
Mashete who🙁 his parents did him dirty😂😂🤣🤣💀
People who go to subway instead of like a deli are decreasing their life expectancy. Might as well go get a sandwich at 7/11
100k accomplished 💪😫
Amour Toujours, nice one, thanks a lot 😎👍
He diddled 😂
The US used to have the chicken pizziola when I was a kid and it was soon good that was about 20 years ago however
In the United States companies are required to list the ingredients within ingredients, including every little chemical composition of those ingredients so that's why it seems like our food has a ridiculous amount of weird stuff in it.
