Irish court rules Subway bread is not bread

The US chain's sandwiches do not meet definition of bread or a staple food, Supreme Court rules in tax case

The Irish Supreme court has ruled that the bread served at Subway - a US sandwich food chain with branches in more than 100 countries - cannot be defined as bread.

Under Ireland's Value-Added Tax Act of 1972 it cannot even be defined as a staple food, according to the Irish Independent, because it contains too much sugar.
