Short answer: An Unwich is any Jimmy John’s sandwich served in a wrap of iceberg lettuce instead of French bread or wheat bread. It has the same meats, cheese and toppings, and it usually costs about the same as the regular sandwich. Because the bread is gone, an Unwich has far fewer calories and carbs.

How an Unwich is made

The crew lays out large iceberg lettuce leaves, adds the sandwich fillings and rolls it up tight in paper. You can ask for any sandwich on the menu as an Unwich when you order in store, online or in the app.

Calories saved

The bread on an 8 inch Jimmy John’s sandwich is a large share of its calories. Switching to an Unwich typically saves around 300 to 400 calories and most of the carbs, depending on the sandwich.

Watch the sauces. Mayo, oil and vinegar and cheese still add calories, so a light Unwich is one with turkey or ham, veggies and mustard.
