Happy 10th anniversary Jared from Subway: a 5-year FLASHBACK blog!

(Originally posted February 27, 2008)

Okay unless you have been living under a ROCK I'm sure you have seen in commercials that Jared is celebrating the 10th anniversary of his Subway diet that allowed him to lose over 250 pounds.  Jared has become a national hero of sorts, but what do we really know about him?

Here is everything I was able to find out about Jared:

- He weighed 425 pounds during his junior year in high school.

- His father, who is a doctor, told him he was gonna DIE if he didn't lose the weight!  (That's why he did it.)

- Jared is JEWISH.  He cut the ribbon for the opening of the first Kosher Subway in Cleveland in 2006.

- Jared has poor eyesight.  I can tell so because he wears glasses.


I was very disappointed that this was all I was able to find out.  I have so many remaining questions!

For example, is Jared WEALTHY?  He has been making those commercials for a long time, I imagine he commands a pretty penny.  Does he live in a mansion?  Does he get lots of LADIES?

Is he still on that same diet?  If so, he must be getting really sick of it by now!  I bet he eats other things.  Also did he save a lot of his super-fat clothes, or just the pants?  He should put stuff on e-bay.

Does Jared have a bodyguard?  He seems like a nice, popular guy, but I bet a lot of people also want to mess with him.  Jared is probably not too tough, and it would look bad for the company if someone roughed him up.

What is Jared's favorite Subway menu item?  I know he lost weight by eating the veggie sub and the turkey, but that can't be what he likes best.  Does he ever pound down a big meatball hoagie?  Like on his birthday?

The people have a right to know.  I think Subway needs to come out with a Jared book so we can get the whole story.  I called Subway and told them this and the person said, "I just work here, I don't have anything to do with that."  Bad attitude.

I will do more research and hopefully have some more information on Jared within the next few weeks.
