Subway is doing away with the popular promotion known for its catchy ad jingle. Instead, the sandwich chain is offering a $6 on all footlong subs. The company says any footlong sandwiches already priced below $6 will not be affected by the changed promotion.

The company says the change was necessary because of cost increases.

On Twitter, Subway fans did not take the news particularly well.
