Subway has introduced a new submarine sandwich topped with classic taco fixings. Available only at Japanese Subway locations, the hybrid sandwich offers a combination of American and Mexican cuisine.
The new 'Subway Taco' comes on a flatbread, instead of the standard sandwich bread. The inside is filled with the normal mix of cheese and veggies, with the addition of ground beef and spicy salsa. The new submarine sandwich is being offered as part of a limited-time trio of unique spicy sandwiches. Along with your Subway Taco, you can also choose the Grilled Tandoori Chicken sub or the Shrimp Avocado Salsa sub.
The unusual culinary mash-ups are only available until the end of August, so be sure to grab one of these hybrid sandwiches while you still can.
