Thinking of grabbing a quick sandwich at Quiznos for Lunch. What is a better choice: Tuna Melt Sub or Honey Bourbon Chicken Sub?

*Quiznos Tuna Melt Sub (regular) is 1120 calories, 94 g fat, 19 g saturated fat, 1370 mg sodium

This is the equivalent of eating 9 McDonald Grilled cheese sandwiches or jogging for 2 ½ hours to burn those calories!

Instead Swap the Tuna Melt Sub for Honey Bourbon Chicken Sub

Honey Bourbon Chicken Sub (regular) is 520 calories, 8 g fat, 3.5 g saturated fat, 1380 mg sodium

Even though tuna is a lean protein that has healthy omega-3 fatty acids, its packed in oil and is mixed with full fat mayonnaise. Mayo is also spread on the bread all adding to the excess fat and calories.  The calories are half a days worth and the fat totals your entire day.

The honey bourbon chicken sub has a zesty grill sauce with a honey bourbon mustard all allowing for a lower fat and caloric sub.

Both though are high in sodium.

*Note: Quiznos Tuna Melt is no longer offered in stores in Canadian Locations. Instead a Tuna Salad sandwich without cheese is offered. Nutrition information on both sandwiches is provided by Quiznos US. The official Canadian Nutrition Information is said to be released in the New Year.
