===Regional variations=== Subway's menu varies between countries, most significantly where religious requirements relate to the meats served. In 2006, the first [[kosher Subway]] restaurant in the United States opened in a suburb of [[Cleveland, Ohio]] in the Mandel Jewish Community Center of Cleveland. Former Subway spokesman [[Jared Fogle]] attended the opening. A press release stated, "With slight modifications, such as no pork-based products, and the use of [[Soy cheese|soy-based cheese]] product, the menu is virtually identical to that of any other Subway restaurant."<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.pr.com/press-release/13250 |title=First Kosher Subway Restaurant Opens in Cleveland |publisher=Pr.com |date=June 6, 2006 |access-date=September 1, 2013 |archive-date=August 8, 2010 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100808193635/http://www.pr.com/press-release/13250 |url-status=dead }}</ref> Other openings soon followed, briefly making Subway one of the largest U.S. kosher restaurant chains.<ref>{{cite news |last=Fishkoff |first=Sue |url=http://www.jta.org/2009/08/05/life-religion/eat-fresh-eat-kosher-subway-the-largest-u-s-kosher-restaurant-chain |title=Eat fresh, eat kosher: Subway the largest U.S. kosher restaurant chain |newspaper=Jewish Telegraphic Agency |date=August 5, 2009 |access-date=February 26, 2016 |archive-date=April 20, 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160420075757/http://www.jta.org/2009/08/05/life-religion/eat-fresh-eat-kosher-subway-the-largest-u-s-kosher-restaurant-chain |url-status=live }}</ref> At their peak, twelve kosher Subway locations were open in the U.S., including Kansas City and 5 in New York. As of 2023, only one kosher Subway remains, in Miami, FL. Franchisees who failed noted a lack of support from the parent location in advertising, higher costs of kosher food and supervision, the inability to remain open on Saturdays, and that customers who do not keep kosher prefer the original menu and prices.<ref name="franchise">{{cite web |last=Spiro |first=Amy |date=September 19, 2011 |title=The Subway That Stops In New York |url=http://jewishweek.timesofisrael.com/the-subway-that-stops-in-new-york/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171004142205/http://jewishweek.timesofisrael.com/the-subway-that-stops-in-new-york/ |archive-date=October 4, 2017 |access-date=February 26, 2016 |publisher=The Jewish Week}}</ref> Subway opened its first restaurant in India in 2001 in [[New Delhi]]. In deference to [[Hindu]] beliefs, Subway restaurants in India do not serve beef products; on the other hand, the country's large number of vegetarians induced Subway's Indian outlets to offer a much-extended range of vegetarian options. As of January 2017, there were 591 Subway restaurants in 68 Indian cities.<ref name="Subway ExploreOurWorld" /> On September 4, 2012, Subway opened its first all-vegetarian outlet on the campus of [[Lovely Professional University]] (LPU) in [[Jalandhar]], [[Punjab, India|Punjab]].<ref>{{cite news |author=Allison |date=August 15, 2024 |title=Subway Menu With Prices |url=https://subwaymenupedia.com/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171222063935/https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/chandigarh/Subway-to-roll-out-worlds-1st-all-veg-outlet-in-Punjab/articleshow/15526098.cms |archive-date=December 22, 2017 |access-date=October 19, 2024 |work=Subway Menu Pedia}}</ref> On March 6, 2013, Subway opened its second all-vegetarian outlet also offering Jain food in [[Paldi (Ahmedabad)|Paldi]], [[Ahmedabad]].<ref>{{cite news |author=Chitra Unnithan |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/ahmedabad/US-food-giants-turn-vegetarian-in-Gujarat/articleshow/18823980.cms |title=US food giants turn vegetarian in Gujarat |newspaper=[[The Times of India]] |date=March 6, 2013 |access-date=December 19, 2017 |archive-date=December 22, 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171222072541/https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/ahmedabad/US-food-giants-turn-vegetarian-in-Gujarat/articleshow/18823980.cms |url-status=live }}</ref>
