Sub Meltdown: Woman Erupts After Subway Refuses Sandwich Do-Over
After a pepper mishap, this woman got hotter than a Carolina Reaper!
We’ve all been burned by at least one fast-food order in our lifetimes. And I’m not talking about piping hot McDonald’s coffee either.
Inevitably, your order gets screwed up. Whether it’s extra tomato after asking for no tomato or receiving onion rings instead of fries, quick-service restaurants never fail to disappoint repeatedly. However, that’s not a legitimate reason to get hotter than a Carolina Reaper.
But that’s exactly what happened when one woman recently visited a Subway near her St. Petersburg, Florida residence. Per a police report, the defendant placed an online order with the sandwich chain and became "upset about the peppers on her sandwich and demanded a new one." No big deal, right? Wrong.
The clerk reportedly advised the woman that the sandwich was made how she ordered it online, and she would not be getting a new one. Okay so, to be fair to the customer, that isn’t the best response to receive. It wouldn’t have killed this sandwich assembler to just make a fresh one. Although we’re talking about Subway, so using the word "fresh" might be generous.

Even though it might have been slightly ridiculous, that sandwich denial doesn’t justify what happened next, as the lady went totally nuts and pushed a cash register and a printer off the counter and onto the ground. I mean, she really lost it. This woman damaged so much technology you’d think she was an NFL coach with an iPad.
But it gets worse. She then reached into the cookie display, removed multiple trays of cookies, and threw them onto the floor. This is crossing a serious line. You know your actions are abhorrent when they have the potential to put the Cookie Monster in a coma. Seriously, he would be THAT upset by this fiasco.
Here’s the absolute best part of the story, per the police report: "The defendant made an online order to Subway, using her points, making it free of cost." Truly incredible. She went this ballistic without spending a dime! Sure, you do earn points by spending money over time, but it’s not worth going from footlong to FELON.
Okay, one more absolute best part of the story: "The defendant used her own real name and phone number making the online order." Subway might have oven-roasted chicken, but nothing is more "roasted" than this customer’s brain.
This beauty was ultimately arrested and charged with criminal mischief. Jail certainly isn't fun, but at least she's already used to terrible food.
