SUBWAY (Singapore) CHOICES

I really enjoy eating subway. 1) A six inch sandwich is really substantial and will keep me really satiated. 2) Nutritional information is readily available in their website and this gives me the knowledge to make the right choices. 3) it is filled with wholesome goodness of my favourite choice of vegetables -- lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber & olives. (NO onions please!!)
There was one day where I was at subway with my friend. We were discussing what SUB to order, I told my friend I was losing weight (or rather trying to maintain my weight given the fat-inducing STRESS I was undergoing) and would choose the sub with the healthier choice logo: 
And I wanted to order Roast Beef! She just thought that Roast Beef sounded extremely unhealthy and Tuna sounded healthier. This caused my interest to search for the nutritional information of the sandwiches online.

Some preliminary results of TUNA vs Roast Beef?


Conclusion: Roast Beef wins Tuna. Significantly lesser fat, lesser saturated fat, cholesterol. Calories of Tuna Sub almost TWICE that of Roast Beef.
