Subway surpasses McDonald’s for fast-food supremacy

This is fast news. Sandwich-maker Subway has surpassed McDonald's for the most franchises.

The green-and-yellow store now has 34,000 stores worldwide, compared to about 32,000 golden arches stores.

Subway's, you may not know, spent its younger years growing up in Canada. It started, in 1986, in St. John's Newfoundland, Canada.
