Sometimes it&#8217;s a woman.  Sometimes it&#8217;s a man.  Sometimes it&#8217;s a woman and man.  Sometimes it&#8217;s more men and women than you can count on your hands.  Sometimes it&#8217;s just a hole in the wall.  Sometimes it&#8217;s a gearshift.  But you don&#8217;t remember.  For you, there is no walk of shame.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m not a manwhore, but I imagine it&#8217;s somewhat like watching sitcoms on CBS, since I can&#8217;t tell them apart.  This is also how I feel about the new Subway Buffalo Chicken sub sandwich.<\/p>\n<p>The limited time only sandwich is made up of chicken glazed with a buffalo sauce, a light ranch dressing and whatever veggies you like to pile into your monster phallic sandwich.  The buffalo sauce isn&#8217;t very spicy and doesn&#8217;t have a strong flavor, but it could be that the light ranch dressing is doing some flavor cockblocking.  <\/p>\n<p>Because of its light flavor and because I&#8217;ve wrapped my mouth around so many Subway $5 footlongs, the Buffalo Chicken doesn&#8217;t stand out and it&#8217;s kind of bland.  It just becomes part of the blur of meat, honey oat bread, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, pickles, olives, and cucumbers.  Sometimes it&#8217;s a turkey breast.  Sometimes it&#8217;s a cold cut combo.  Sometimes it&#8217;s oven roasted chicken.  Sometimes it&#8217;s a veggie delight.  But to this subwhore, at this point, they all taste the same.  <\/p>\n<p>But what about those who don&#8217;t suck down Subway footlongs on a regular basis?<\/p>\n<p>If they&#8217;re looking for a low-fat meal, a six-inch Buffalo Chicken has just seven grams of fat.  But those people better also love sodium and hypertension, because it contains over 1,300 milligrams of sodium.  For some, that&#8217;s half a day&#8217;s worth of sodium.  For a slug, it means DOOM.<\/p>\n<p>The Subway Buffalo Chicken was unremarkable because when I think of Buffalo Chicken, I think of strong flavors, but this sandwich lacked it.  To me, it&#8217;s just another nameless notch in my bedpost.<\/p>\n<p><small>(Nutrition Facts &#8211; 6 inches &#8211; 370 calories, 7 grams of fat, 1.5 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 55 milligrams of cholesterol, 1300 milligrams of sodium, 54 grams of carbohydrates, 5 grams of fiber, 8 grams of sugar, 25 grams of protein, 8% vitamin A, 35% vitamin C, 6% calcium and 15% iron.)<\/small><\/p>\n<p><b>Item:<\/b>  Subway Buffalo Chicken<br \/>\n<b>Price:<\/b>  $6.00<br \/>\n<b>Size:<\/b>  Footlong<br \/>\n<b>Purchased at:<\/b>  Subway<br \/>\n<b>Rating:<\/b> 5 out of 10<br \/>\n<b>Pros:<\/b>  Seven grams of fat in a six-inch sub.
