Fogle first came to media attention in April 1999, via an article published in the ''[[Indiana Daily Student]]'' written by a former dormmate about Fogle losing {{convert|245|lb|abbr=on}} by exercising and eating a diet of Subway sandwiches.<ref name="latimes.com">{{cite news|first=Christina|last=Littlefield|url=https://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-jared-fogle-subway-20150707-htmlstory.html|title=The Subway guy: How Jared Fogle went from overweight college student to cultural icon|newspaper=[[Los Angeles Times]]|date=July 7, 2015|access-date=December 2, 2019|archive-date=September 26, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200926203106/https://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-jared-fogle-subway-20150707-htmlstory.html|url-status=live}}</ref><ref name="chip">{{cite book| first1= Chip| last1= Heath| first2= Dan|last2=Heath|title=Made to Stick: Why Some Ideas Survive and Others Die|title-link=Made to Stick| date=December 18, 2006|pages=[https://archive.org/details/madetostickwhyso00heat/page/218 218–221]| publisher=[[Random House]]| location= New York City|isbn=978-1-4000-6428-1}}</ref> Subsequently, Fogle was featured in a ''[[Men's Health]]'' magazine article, "Stupid Diets&nbsp;... that Work!"<ref>{{cite magazine| first= Duane|last=Swierczynski|url=http://connection.ebscohost.com/c/articles/2333652/stupid-diets-that-work|title=Stupid Diets&nbsp;...

Fogle changed his eating habits upon the switch to eating at Subway, replacing his 10,000-calorie-per-day food consumption with one small turkey sub and one large veggie sub along with some baked potato chips and diet soda, totaling about 2,000 calories.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.medicinenet.com/subway_diet/definition.htm | title=Medical Definition of Subway diet | access-date=September 22, 2021 | archive-date=March 27, 2022 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220327020207/https://www.medicinenet.com/subway_diet/definition.htm | url-status=live }}</ref> A [[Chicago]]-area Subway [[Franchising|franchisee]] took Fogle's story to Subway's Chicago-based advertising agency.<ref name="chip" />

As a test, the company ran a regional television advertising campaign. The first ad aired on January 1, 2000, introducing Fogle and his story with the following disclaimer: "The Subway diet, combined with a lot of walking, worked for Jared. We're not saying this is for everyone. You should check with your doctor before starting any diet program. But it worked for Jared."<ref>{{cite news| first= Bill| last= Mardis| url= http://somerset-kentucky.com/local/x681549706/-Subway-Guy-Visits-Somerset| title= 'Subway Guy' Visits Somerset| newspaper= [[Commonwealth Journal]]| date= September 3, 2008| access-date= September 20, 2013| archive-date= September 21, 2013| archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20130921060224/http://somerset-kentucky.com/local/x681549706/-Subway-Guy-Visits-Somerset| url-status= live}}</ref>

The introductory test ads were a success, so Fogle subsequently appeared in more television commercials as well as sponsored in-store appearances throughout the United States. Fogle would give talks on the benefits of fitness and healthy eating,<ref name=CBS>{{cite web| url= https://www.cbsnews.com/news/the-subway-diet-02-03-2004/|title=The Subway Diet: Jared Fogle Becomes A Celebrity By Losing Weight |work=[[48 Hours (TV series)|48 Hours]]| date= September 3, 2004|access-date=February 18, 2008|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20080112233202/http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2004/03/02/48hours/main603484.shtml|archive-date=January 12, 2008|url-status=live}}</ref> and later came to be known as The Subway Guy.<ref name="latimes.com"/><ref name="WashPost"/>

In 2002, Fogle was the subject of an episode of ''[[South Park]]'' titled "[[Jared Has Aides]]".<ref>{{cite web| first=Kevin|last=Clemons|title=dOc DVD Review: South Park: The Complete Sixth Season (2002) |url= http://www.digitallyobsessed.com/displaylegacy.php?ID=7957| website= digitallyobsessed.com |date=October 10, 2005|access-date=September 17, 2013| archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20130910140605/http://digitallyobsessed.com/displaylegacy.php?ID=7957|archive-date= September 10, 2013|url-status=live}}</ref> Fogle has stated that while the episode had "typical[ly] tasteless humor", the fact that an entire episode was devoted to him was "very flattering". He added, "you know you've made it when shows like ''South Park'' start parodying you".<ref>{{cite news |first=Bob|last=Levey|title=Q&A With Bob Levey|newspaper=[[The Washington Post]]|date=March 18, 2003}}</ref> Fogle was also parodied in the 2017 video game ''[[South Park: The Fractured but Whole]]''; this occurred after his child pornography conviction.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2017-10-25 |title=South Park: Fractured But Whole - How To Beat Every Boss {{!}} Strategy Guide |url=https://gameranx.com/features/id/124387/article/south-park-fractured-but-whole-how-to-beat-every-boss-strategy-guide/ |access-date=2022-07-07 |website=Gameranx |language=en-US |archive-date=July 7, 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220707132432/https://gameranx.com/features/id/124387/article/south-park-fractured-but-whole-how-to-beat-every-boss-strategy-guide/ |url-status=live }}</ref>

In February 2008, a Subway campaign called "Tour de Pants" celebrated Fogle maintaining his weight loss for a decade.  As part of the campaign, Fogle made an announcement that he would retire his pair of 62-inch (157-centimeter) pants to a museum at the end of the advertising tour.<ref name=AdAge>{{cite magazine|first=Emily|last=Bryson York|url=http://adage.com/article?article_id=125142|title=Subway Can't Stop Jonesing for Jared|magazine=[[Advertising Age]]|date=February 18, 2008| access-date=February 18, 2008}}</ref> Beginning in 2008, Fogle's presence in Subway advertisements decreased due to the company's placing a new emphasis on its "[[Subway $5 footlong promotion|$5 Footlong]]" promotion.<ref>{{cite web| first= Matthew| last= Boyle| url= https://www.yahoo.com/news/pf_article_108119.html| title= The Accidental Hero| website= [[Yahoo!]] | date= November 10, 2009| access-date= July 12, 2017}}{{Dead link|date=March 2023 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref>

Fogle's role in Subway afforded him some other opportunities, such as appearances in [[WWE]] in 2009<ref>{{cite web |title=Mickie James vs. Divas Champion Maryse |date=May 20, 2009 |work=[[WWE]] |url= http://www.wwe.com/shows/raw/archive/05042009/mickiejamesvsmaryse |access-date=November 20, 2015 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20151121043937/http://www.wwe.com/shows/raw/archive/05042009/mickiejamesvsmaryse |archive-date=November 21, 2015 |url-status=live |quote=The "Subway" personality prepares to announce Mickie's opponent.}}</ref> and 2011.<ref>{{cite web| first= James| last= Wortman|url=http://www.wwe.com/shows/raw/2011-08-15/results|title=Raw results: California scheming| website= WWE.com |date=August 15, 2011| access-date=September 26, 2011 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20110926015519/http://www.wwe.com/shows/raw/2011-08-15/results |archive-date= September 26, 2011|url-status=live}}</ref> By 2013, Fogle had filmed more than 300 commercials and continued to make appearances and speeches for the company.  Subway attributed one third to one half of its growth in sales to Fogle, with revenue having tripled from 1998 to 2011.<ref name= murray20130609>{{cite news| first= Rheana|last=Murray|title=Subway commercial spokesman Jared Fogle marks 15 years of turkey subs and keeping the weight off| url= http://www.nydailynews.com/life-style/health/jared-subway-guy-marks-15-years-turkey-subs-article-1.1365511| newspaper=[[New York Daily News]] |publisher=[[Tribune Publishing]]|location=New York City| date= June 9, 2013| access-date= November 18, 2014| archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20141117063233/http://www.nydailynews.com/life-style/health/jared-subway-guy-marks-15-years-turkey-subs-article-1.1365511| archive-date=November 17, 2014|url-status=live}}</ref>

Fogle made appearances in the ''[[Sharknado]]'' film series, beginning with ''[[Sharknado 2: The Second One]]''. He had a cameo appearance in ''[[Sharknado 3: Oh Hell No!]]'', though this was cut from the [[Syfy|Syfy Channel]] broadcast version a week before its premiere when his house was searched by the FBI.<ref>{{cite news|first=Tierney|last=Bricker|title=Jared Fogle Dropped from Sharknado 3 Amidst Scandal| url= http://www.eonline.com/news/674564/jared-fogle-s-cameo-in-sharknado-3-cut-in-wake-of-scandal|website=[[E!

=== Jared Foundation ===
In 2004, Fogle established the Jared Foundation, a [[nonprofit organization]] focused on raising awareness about [[childhood obesity]] through educational programs and tools provided to parents, schools, and community organizations.<ref>{{cite news| first=Justin Wm. |last= Moyer| title=Jared Fogle: Another VIP claiming to help children but who allegedly harmed them| url= https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2015/08/20/jared-fogle-another-vip-claiming-to-help-children-who-allegedly-harmed-them/| newspaper=[[The Washington Post]]| location= Washington, DC|date=August 20, 2015|access-date=August 22, 2015| archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20150822031836/http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2015/08/20/jared-fogle-another-vip-claiming-to-help-children-who-allegedly-harmed-them/|archive-date=August 22, 2015|url-status=live}}</ref>

On April 29, 2015, Russell Taylor, director of the Jared Foundation, was arrested at his Indianapolis home on charges of child exploitation, possession of child pornography, and [[Voyeurism#Criminology|voyeurism]]. According to court records, Taylor and his then-wife, Angela Baldwin, sexually molested young girls and installed cameras in their house to film the victims without their knowledge. Fogle severed all ties with Taylor immediately following the arrest.<ref>{{cite news| first1= Greg| last1= Margason|first2=Kendall|last2=Downing|title=Executive director of Jared Foundation arrested on child pornography, exploitation charges| url= http://fox59.com/2015/04/29/executive-director-of-jared-foundation-arrested-on-child-pornography-charges/| work=[[WXIN]].com |location=Indianapolis, Indiana |date= April 29, 2015|access-date=July 7, 2015| archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20150707210122/http://fox59.com/2015/04/29/executive-director-of-jared-foundation-arrested-on-child-pornography-charges/|archive-date=July 7, 2015|url-status=live}}</ref><ref name=TaylorPlea2020/> Taylor attempted suicide on May 6, 2015, at the [[Marion County, Indiana|Marion County]] Jail and was placed on life support.<ref name=usaraid>{{cite news| first1= Madeline |last1= Buckley |first2= Justin| last2=Mack|title=Police raid home of Subway pitchman Jared Fogle| url= https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2015/07/07/police-investigation-jared-fogle-subway-pitchman/29808241/ |newspaper=[[USA Today]]|publisher=[[Gannett Company]]|location=Mclean, Virginia| date=July 7, 2015|access-date=July 7, 2015| archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20150707215722/http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2015/07/07/police-investigation-jared-fogle-subway-pitchman/29808241/|archive-date=July 7, 2015|url-status=live}}</ref><ref name="fox1">{{cite news| first= Kyee| last=Wierks|title=Former Jared Foundation Director Russell Taylor attempted to commit suicide at the Marion County Jail| url= http://fox59.com/2015/05/06/former-jared-foundation-director-russell-taylor-attempts-suicide-in-marion-county-jail/| work= WXIN.com| location=Indianapolis |date=May 6, 2015| access-date=July 7, 2015| archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20150707233902/http://fox59.com/2015/05/06/former-jared-foundation-director-russell-taylor-attempts-suicide-in-marion-county-jail/|archive-date=July 7, 2015| url-status=live}}</ref> Taylor pleaded guilty to the charges on September 1, 2015, and on December 10, 2015, was sentenced to 27&nbsp;years in federal prison.<ref name=PeopleRussellTaylor/> The sentence was thrown out in March 2020 when it emerged that Taylor's lawyer had failed to challenge three charges that were not supported by the evidence.

In August 2015, a ''[[USA Today]]'' article<ref name="USA Today Duplicity">{{cite news| first1= Thomas| last1=Frank|first2=Marisa|last2=Kwiatkowski|first3=Tony|last3=Cook|url=https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/2015/08/22/jared-subway-charges-children/32155115/| title=From obesity to duplicity: Jared's fall to Earth| newspaper=[[USA Today]] |publisher= [[Gannett Company]] |location=Mclean, Virginia|date=August 23, 2015|access-date=August 25, 2015|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20150824230259/http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/2015/08/22/jared-subway-charges-children/32155115/|archive-date=August 24, 2015|url-status=live}}</ref> reported that the Jared Foundation had not issued any grants, nor had it given funds for its stated purpose. The article further noted that, on average, the foundation spent $73,000 a year, with the majority of that figure paying the salary of the foundation's executive director. More than one-quarter of the funds were unaccounted for per the foundation's tax records. Daniel Borochoff, president of the non-profit charity watchdog group [[CharityWatch]], was quoted in the ''USA Today'' article as saying, "If Jared was really interested in helping children through his foundation, he could have gotten more money. As with a lot of celebrities, the charity appears to be more about image-enhancement than charitable deeds."<ref name= "USA Today Duplicity" />

The [[Secretary of State of Indiana]] dissolved the organization in February 2012 because it did not pay the required $5 annual reporting fees during the two previous years, despite being requested to do so on multiple occasions.<ref name="fox1" /><ref>{{cite web| first= Rick| last= Callahan| title=Future of Subway pitchman's foundation unclear after raid| url= http://www.salon.com/2015/07/09/future_of_subway_pitchmans_foundation_unclear_after_raid/|website=[[Salon.com]]| publisher=[[Salon Media Group]]| location=San Francisco, California |date= July 8, 2015|access-date=May 16, 2016| archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20160604023642/http://www.salon.com/2015/07/09/future_of_subway_pitchmans_foundation_unclear_after_raid/|archive-date=June 4, 2016|url-status=live}}</ref>
