Is Subway fast food healthier than McDonald's?
user
No, they’re pretty much the same. McDonald’s has smaller portions, and Subway has fresh ingredients, but neither of them are healthy.
assistant
Why isn't Subway healthy? Their commercials seem to imply they are.
user
Sorry, the commercials are actually saying they're healthier than McDonald's. It’s just a sneaky way to say “our ingredients are fresher and we don't make you eat the whole meal".
assistant
Sneaky, eh?
user
No, just a little misdirection. People have a way of eating more when they think they're doing something healthy.
assistant
That is sad.
user
Yes, it is. They're aware that people go for healthier items and not healthier meals. It's not a very bad thing, but just a sneaky marketing strategy. It doesn't make people sick, it just makes them eat a few extra calories.

Yes, it is. At the end of the day, no matter what you eat, humans are highly adaptable to all sorts of nutritional challenges. Over the long term, the impact of a single meal doesn't matter all that much.
