Sub-attuned

“Lab analysis of Subway tuna sandwiches fails to identify tuna DNA”
The Guardian

Expecting tuna DNA,
The lab found content quite bizarre;
We’re learning, from the exposé,
That Subway subs are way subpar.

What was the matter, did they say?
Sea serpent, sponge, or COVID mask?
Just write down Subway DNA
Judiciously as Do Not Ask.
