Please post what you call this:

And what geographic region you are in.

In NYC, they are called heros, except in chain stores like Subway, 7-11, Quiznos, they are subs.

Edit: Added disclaimer in title b/c I know some people skip over retarted polls.

Well it's not a hoagie or a grinder. I don't know what the difference between a hero and a sub is. It's a sub to me though.

I believe a grinder is when u stick in the oven and melt the cheese.
I think sub and hogie are the same thing.

My understanding is that the grinder bread is made w/o softeners so you have to grind a while to be able to swallow the bite.

I call those "sandwiches".

I'm from CA and I call them grinders but that is b/c I grew up near the best sandwhich place around called D'elia's Grinders. Otherwise it is a sub to me.
