8 sandwich shops have 1,854 ads in the Meta Ad Library between them, and 1,804 of those were running when we read it on October 8, 2026. Below is a page of creative from each, what formats carry the category, and how long the ads that work stay up.
Piles of sliced meat and a monthly featured sub dominate the picture, with the bread barely earning a line.
The library count is everything a brand has published on Meta. The active count is what was delivering at the read. The ratio between them is the account’s posture: a large library with a small active share is a brand cycling hard, and one where nearly everything is live is running a small curated set.
