Paul ----- Forwarded message from Melissa Bazant <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ----- Date: Thu, 17 Jan 2008 10:21:22 +1000 From: Melissa Bazant <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: Melissa Bazant <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Customer Comment 1448491 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dear Paul Trusten Thank you for taking time to contact us. The Subway FootlongR and Subway 6 Inch SubsR are trade mark names used to describe our sub sizes. This is to differentiate the difference between large and small serving sizes. Due to the baking and cutting process the size of subs may vary. All formulas used to make our subs are measured using the Metric System to ensure all stores are consistent through out Australia and New Zealand. Again thank you for taking the time to contact us.
