Okay, so we all know Subway for its sandwiches, right? But what about their desserts? I've been a long-time Subway fan, and sometimes after a delicious sub, you just need that little something sweet to finish off the meal. I recently tried the viral Oreo Footlong Cookie (and trust me, I have thoughts on that!), but I wanted to dive a bit deeper into the whole 'Subway desserts' scene because honestly, there's more to it than just that one cookie. First off, let's talk about their classic cookies. For years, these have been my go-to. My absolute favorite has always been the chocolate chip. There's something about that warm, slightly gooey center and crispy edge that just hits the spot. I remember getting one (or two!) every time I went with my friends after school. They're usually pretty affordable, making them a perfect little treat without breaking the bank. The oatmeal raisin is surprisingly good too, for those who prefer something a bit less chocolatey. I've also had their white chocolate macadamia nut, which offers a lovely chewiness and rich flavor. It’s a great option if you’re looking for a bit of variety. Beyond the standard cookies, Subway sometimes surprises us. I’ve seen them offer churros in some locations, which is a fun twist. If you get them fresh and warm, they can be a real delight – crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and usually dusted with cinnamon sugar. It's a different vibe from the cookies, more of a fried dough treat. I haven't seen them everywhere, so they feel a bit like a hidden gem when I do. And for those who prefer something a bit healthier, or just want a lighter option, don't forget about the apple slices! While not a 'dessert' in the traditional decadent sense, they're always crisp, fresh, and a great way to add a bit of fruit to your meal. My kids often go for these, and honestly, sometimes after a huge sub, a simple, refreshing apple is all you need. Now, back to the big one: the Footlong Cookies. When the regular chocolate chip Footlong Cookie first launched, I was intrigued. It was huge! Perfect for sharing, or for an extremely indulgent solo treat. It's essentially an oversized version of their classic chocolate chip cookie, which is great if that's your favorite. But then came the Oreo Footlong Cookie. I had high hopes! I mean, Oreos and cookies? What could go wrong? My experience was... interesting. It was definitely sweet, and the Oreo pieces added a nice crunch, but I felt it was almost too much. It lacked a bit of the classic cookie warmth I love. It felt more like a novelty item than a truly satisfying dessert, in my personal opinion. Still, it's worth trying at least once just for the experience! When I'm deciding on a Subway dessert, I usually think about what kind of sub I just had. If it was a lighter veggie sub, I might go for a rich cookie. If it was a loaded meatball sub, maybe just a single cookie or even the apple slices. It’s all about balance! The prices are generally quite reasonable for all their dessert offerings, especially the individual cookies, which makes them a great add-on. Overall, Subway's dessert menu, while not extensive, has some solid contenders. The classic cookies are always a safe and satisfying bet. The Footlong options are fun for sharing or a big indulgence, and the occasional churro sighting is a pleasant surprise. So next time you're at Subway, don't just stop at the sandwich – give their sweet side a look! You might find your new favorite treat.
