Subway - Where's the Avocado?

Those pictures and ads you see are made to look that way on purpose. The reality is at Subway you get very little of anything by bread unless you order double meat and ask for extra this and that. McDonalds recently released a video on how their products are made to look better in ads and i would safely assume all food chains use the same or similar methods. http://www.videos.com/play/M39159176-5/new_videos/how_a_mcdonalds_hamburger_in_their_ads_gets_made.html

It also depends on which Subway you go to. We have some Subways that make great subs and other ones that make you wonder why you didn't just go to the deli and make your own sub at home. I've had one place put a handful of black olives on mine, whereas another location, picked a few from the container and one by one spaced them out over the sub, totaling maybe 8 or 10 slices of olives.

It all depends on how the management is training their staff.

Some will gladly put extra on for you without hesitation and possibly without charge, whereas others are so stingy they charge for extra or wont offer it at all.

Just be glad you even have avocado, where I work has never served it! Not sure if it's by choice but I don't believe it is.
