Man Accused Of Robbing 4 Subway Restaurants: “Jared Diet” Didn’t Work


They say revenge is a dish best served cold, but no one ever said anything about cold cuts specifically being involved: An Alabama man accused of robbing four Subway restaurants reportedly said he did it because he tried “the Jared diet” and wasn’t pleased with the results.

Police say the suspect wanted to get his money bad after eating all those sandwiches and not getting the physique of his dreams, reports WJBF.com. He blamed Subway spokesman Jared Fogle, who gave the chain’s sandwiches credit after losing about 245 pounds in a year.


“He stated to the detective he had attempted the ‘Jared Diet’ and it didn’t work,” the police chief said, according to Good Morning America. “He felt like he should get his money back.”


The 18-year-old man was caught on a surveillance video that law enforcement put on Facebook after a robbery at one local restaurant, and was recognized by someone shopping at Walmart. That person called the police and followed him around until they arrived.


When cops detained him, they say he admitted to the robbery. He was arrested, and police believe he’s responsible for robberies at three other local Subways.
