I went to their site and sent them an email asking if they were
mutant rats. Said it was the most unappetizing thing I'd ever seen.
Told them I wouldn't eat there because with rodents in their
commercials they might have rodents in their stores.

They remind me of the dancing hampsters. Obnoxious, but cute... for a
little while.

Some kind of rodent for sure. I was thinking squirrel, but the ears
are too big.
I like toasted subs, but theirs look really cooked, like you'd have
crumbs all over the place when you tried to eat one. But I don't
really have to worry, because the closest one is a couple of hours
from me.

There is a Quiznos Subs right near my house, and the subs are really very
good. They have greats soup and rolls as well. I prefer them over Subway.
Those commercials are just plain odd.

Sieka says they're guinea pigs and the ears are right for guinea pigs. Now the teeth are

sprouting baby teeth on the top. Like we really needed to know this ....

I saw a flash thing somewhere on the web weeks and weeks ago that was
similar to the new Quiznos commercials. I thought it was kinda sick and
stupid then but that is nothing compared to trying to use them to sell food.
Who makes the decisions at Quizno's anyway? Yeeesh.
