Summary
A Jimmy John’s customer, Raquel Contreras, used her rewards points to buy a free sandwich, but received stale bread instead. She shared a video on TikTok demonstrating the bread’s hardness. A former Jimmy John’s employee claimed that the company intentionally serves stale bread to customers who use rewards points. However, Jimmy John’s website states that they bake fresh bread every day and only use it for sandwiches on the same day. Any leftover bread is sold at a discount as “day-old” bread.
