Here's what you can do to have a submenus to your primary links: On  
the settings tab of your menu admin screen, change the "Menu  
containing secondary links:" to Primary links. What this does is  
change how your Secondary menu that is in your theme template is  
generated. Instead of being a separate menu, it will now display 2nd  
level items from your primary menu.

Now create your secondary menu selections as menu items in your  
Primary menu, and indicate their parent terms when you do it. So if  
you have your menu set up like this:

Primary Menu

Fruit
- Apples
- Oranges
- Pears
Vegetables
- Asparagus
- Okra
- Cabbage
Breads
- Pumpernickel
- Rye
- Challah

...then when you lick on Fruit, for example, your secondary menu  
array will display Apples, Oranges, Pears, but when you click on  
Vegetables, that secondary menu will change to display Asparagus,  
Okra, Cabbage

Hope this helps!
