Went to a "Subway" not long ago, and was amazed at the amount of bread

What you should skip is the buns and fries. Best LC fast food buy today is
KFC's broiled Double Down, a bit of cheese, a thin slice of bacon between
two chicken breasts. Tasty and very LC.
They have it available in the brioled form? Nice. I usually ignore KFC
as an option because for so long all of their chicken option were
breaded. The broiled option has been available for a while so I should
check it out.
Subway has had "Any 6 inch sub as a salad, $1 extra charge" on their
menu as far back as I have paid attention. I consider them the oldest
entry in the list of low carb fast food places because of that.
in the sandwich. Seems like most supermarkets deli counters would make a
sandwich with less bread.
In Davis, California, the choices were 1) hamburger, 2) cheeseburger, 3)
Hardees still has the Thickburger with the lettuce wrap option that last
time I was far enough out of town to encounter a Hardees. I take it the
same item appears under the Carls Jr brand name as well. The original
is In-n-Out "animal style" but I haven't been to their region in years.
"Double-Double Burger" (double cheeseburger), fries, and choice of drink

However, you can get the bun replaced with lettuce, which drops the
carbs to 11 g.

that doesn't use the fast food paradigm of teaching an employee one
task, and then firing them before they could collect benefits. They are
known for treating their employees with respect, and paying them well.
Their patty making facility is in Baldwin Park, CA, and at the outlet in
Davis, you could see them peeling and slicing their own French fries
(not a big endorsement in a low carb food group, but the point was that
it was fresh and unsullied).
Yeah, I'll probably be back there this week-end.
