Cape Coral Pub Sub Thieves On The Run

When you're hungry, there's nothing like a good sandwich and here in Southwest Florida, Cape Coral Pub sub thieves are on the run.

Publix is a favorite grocery store for many. Even before I moved to Fort Myers, anytime I visited Florida, I would get so excited to go to Publix. There was one on the island near our vacation house on Clearwater Beach, so there might be a bit of nostalgia there for me, but still to this day, there's just something about Publix I prefer more than any other grocery store. And now they're remodeling and building fancy Publix's so they just keep getting better.

And who can deny the deliciousness of a Pub sub? They're perfect really and can be enjoyed just about anywhere. Lunch at the office, on the beach, on the boat or at home. We all love the Pub sub here in Florida. My favorite is the buffalo chicken wrap. Publix tenders are already the jaw. Then throw some buffalo, ranch and a slew of veggies on there- it's creme de la creme.

Now I get it. When the craving kicks in for Pub sub, you want it and you want it now. But that doesn't mean you can bypass the check out line. WFLA reports that police are looking for 2 Cape Coral pub sub thieves that are on the run. According to the Lee County Sheriff’s Office, the pair went to the Publix on Del Prado in Cape Coral on Saturday looking for their online order of 2 turkey subs. When they couldn't find them, they had the deli worker make 2 more. But then they just walked out with them.

The total of the stolen subs was just over $21. But regardless of the cost, that's stealing and that doesn't go over well in the eyes of the law.

Cameras caught the sub stealing duo leaving in a black Ford Explorer and if you have any information, you're encouraged to call Lee County police at 239-477-1000.

If I've said it once, I've said it a million times, there is a national holiday honoring just about anything.  And this month is no exception, it's National Hamburger Month in May, according to NationalToday.com.

What is a burger?  Merriam Webster defines a burger as similar to a hamburger, which is defined as ground beef or a patty of ground beef used in a sandwich split typically by a round bun.  Nowadays, you’ll find tofu burgers, turkey burgers, Impossible burgers, among other concoctions.  But, when it comes down to the best burger in Fort Myers, where should we go?

Burgers are a go to here in the US, whether you grab one from a food truck, at a drive thru or grill your own at a backyard BBQ at home.  Hamburgers, in my opinion, are best with cheese, fried egg, bacon, mustard and ketchup.  Yes, things get messy.

The folks over at Yelp! did the work for us.  If you're not familiar with Yelp!  they rank local restaurants and specific food and drink options based off of user reviews and recommendations.

I'd be remiss if I didn't mention a location that is loved by Southwest Florida locals, absent from this list.  We can't forget about Cabbage Key.  Their burgers are nothing fancy, but they are good and the atmosphere cannot be beat.  I also really enjoy the potato salad...a lot!
