Although, often too many times, the food is not ready very quickly, as the name “fast-food” suggests, therefore diners are expected to wait an extra ten minutes, when they expect their food to be ready as soon as they are finished getting their drink.

The report wants the diners to know that there is always a healthier option as long as you do not give into temptation. For example, a healthy option at Subway is a six-inch turkey breast and black forest ham sub, but half of the diners would end up getting the unhealthy option, the footlong Italian B.M.T.
