Subway faces backlash after employees viral video reveals how its iconic bread is made: So many things wrong

A Subway employee’s routine closing-shift video has gone viral online, giving the public a rare look at how the sandwich chain’s iconic bread is made.The video, posted with the caption, “POV: you work a closing shift @subway,” showcases the rhythmical, clattering, and strangely satisfying sounds of restaurant prep and clean-up.However, it’s the opening sequence, showing the preparation of the raw bread dough, that has captured the internet’s attention.In the clip, the employee is seen throwing long, pale, unbaked sticks of frozen dough onto metal baking trays.The dough bounces and thuds against the metal with a distinct, loud slap before the trays are slid into a large proofing rack to rise overnight.While the video was intended as “ASMR,” a genre of videos meant to induce a relaxing, tingling sensation through repetitive sounds, some fast-food fans were left stunned by the less-than-gentle handling of the frozen loaves.“There are so many things wrong in this video I don’t know where to start,” one person commented.“Bro pls tell me that ain’t the bread,” another wrote in disbelief.“There’s NO WAY that’s the bread,” a third claimed.While many were shocked by the reality, others chimed in, claiming everyone else is ignorant for thinking the bread is not made from frozen dough.Morning Report delivers the latest news, videos, photos and more.

Never miss a story.“Do people not understand the process of making bread? It’s frozen bread; it has to rise for ages; they can’t whip up bread in ten minutes,” one person wrote.“People not realizing that bread is made from dough is insane to me,” a second chimed in.“Why is everyone so shocked by frozen dough?” a third questioned.“It’s frozen dough which doubles in size as it thaws and then gets baked.
