Subway to Tessellate Cheese
Image


They couldn't get Ron Paul elected, but the Internet can get you a better sandwich. You're welcome, world.
After a nerd outcry (yes, there was even a T-shirt) about how Subway places the triangular slices of cheese on its sandwiches (corner to corner, rather than tessellated for maximum coverage), what's purported to be a memo in the official company newsletter from Australia suggests the company's "Sandwich Artists" are going to adhere to a more enlightened and aesthetically pleasing cheese policy come July 1.
"With this new policy, triangles or half moons of cheese will be placed on the sandwich in an offset, or staggered pattern," the document reads. "This will improve the cheese coverage on the sandwich."
One caveat: the company has been mum about whether the leaked newsletter is official. Lovers of all things logic (and all things cheese) will have to wait until July 1 to see if their sandwiches change. (via The Consumerist)

Hmm, it's been a while since I last went to Subway, but I seem to recall them doing the tessellated placement of cheese on my sandwich. I may be misremembering, or it may be something my particular Subway chose to do on its own.

This thread title sounds like one of those weird Markov-chain spam mail subject lines.

You were wrong cabinet Sanchez!

But they weren't even saving cheese! Both illustrations use 4 triangles.

Yes, it was a suboptimal cheese placement procedure.

First, as the date on the article in the OP suggests, this is semi-old news.

Secondly, tessellation requires more time and attention than non-tessellation. So "current" is faster than tessellation while tessellation should be better.

Third, the truth is that Subway is competing on value ($5 footlongs) and then health and then taste, so anything to add more weight to the third leg of the stool is good.

I believe the diagrams are inaccurate, and this was originally instituted as a cheese saving measure. The original uprising documentation went into depth on this. :)

Just think: now that the Taniyama–Shimura conjecture has been proven, Subway's cheese is also an elliptic curve!

Think about what this represents!

They'll still be nasty, flavorless garbage compared to Cousins Subs.
