Calories and Nutrition


Calories

There are 540 calories in an 8″ Jimmy John’s Slim 1 on French Bread. A little over half of the total calories are derived from carbohydrates. Fat contributes 22% of total calories and the balance is from protein.

  • Fat: 120 calories
  • Carbs: 280 calories
  • Protein: 140 calories
  • Total: 540 calories

Total calories decrease to 470 if you order the sandwich on sliced wheat.

The caloric breakout by nutrient is a rounded estimate based on the nutrition facts label sourced from Jimmy John’s. Calories may vary by location, as a result of how it’s prepared, or due to topping choices.

Double the Calories in Giant 16″

A Giant 16″ sub served on fresh baked French bread has over 1,000 calories. About half of those calories are from Carbs (52% of total calories) and the remaining calories are split between fat (23%) and protein (25%).

Reduced Calorie Slim 1 Sandwich

If you enjoy the flavor of smoked ham and cheese, but prefer lower calorie options for lunch, check out the Jimmy John’s Slim 1 Unwich®.

The Unwich version of this Slim sub sandwich is made with the same hand-sliced ham and provolone. However, instead of being served in a French bread roll, the fixings are wrapped in lettuce. It has only 190 total calories. That’s less than half the calories of the traditional 8″ sub.

Sodium

One important point to note is the amount of sodium in a single serving. Despite being a slimmed down sandwich with only ham and cheese, there is a significant amount of sodium.

Specifically, the 8″ regular Slim 1 on a French roll contains 1,610 milligrams of sodium. That is nearly 70% of the total daily value.

The amount of sodium in a Giant Slim 1 exceeds the recommended daily value by 35%.

To be clear, there are 3,220 milligrams of sodium in the Giant 16″ Slim 1. That’s 135% of the FDA recommended daily value.

  • Jimmy John’s Slim 1 has over 3,000mg of sodium.
