How long ago did Dunkin' Donuts rebrand to simply "Dunkin'"?

[Mickey Massuco]

I don’t remember what the last board name idea you gave me was but that’s because all I can think of is being a SAMDWICH SELLOUT

left the typo in

 

[Baby Shoes]

yo typo brings it next level bro good call

 

[Baby Shoes]

You know this thread also has me thinking I wonder if @King Kamala posts in Current Events would have an entirely different tone if Trump offered a significant UberEats discount code

 

[King Kamala]

I am sure it will happen after he leaves office. Between, slashing defense budget, and wanting to bump the stimulus up 2.5x, I might become a MAGA Chud in 2021.

 

[Laz]

...smgdh...fuck, @King Kamala , have some NEW ENGLAND MAN dignity.

 

[King Kamala]

If it makes you all feel better, the order was 45 minutes late and missing over half the items.

A Christmas Miracle for those who believe in WOKE NEW ENGLAND MAN KARMA!

 

[King Kamala]

They also gave me a regular Sausage Egg, and Cheese croissant instead of a Beyond Sausage, Egg, and Cheese croissant. OK NOW I'M DEFINITELY SWITCHING MY SUPPORT TO AROMA JOE'S AND I'M GOING TO PISS ON FRED THE BAKER'S GRAVE!

I don’t know if this will excited @King Kamala or not but when I was browsing ordering groceries the other night there was a coupon for some Post cereals. Apparently now Post is producing multiple flavors of Dunkin’ inspired cereal.

 

[King Kamala]

I heard universally awful reviews of these cereals even from fellow NEW ENGLAND MEN/Dunks enthusiasts. Plus I only drink unsweetened beverages from Dunks (since I've turned into a big baby RE: Sugary drinks in last five years. See Arizona Iced Tea thread) so even if I heard they were awesome, I'd only have mild to moderate interest.

Most New England thing I've seen all pandemic. Or at least since that lady voting at Fenway Park that wanted to vote for Bernie but settled for Biden.

 

[Laz]

They show up at blood drives all the time, too.

 

[Hawk 34]

They do that over here too it’s not strictly a NEW ENGLAND MAN exclusive, sorry @King Kamala.

 

[King Kamala]

Yeah but them giving out free iced coffee at Paul Brown Stadium ISN'T QUINTESSENTIALLY NEW ENGLAND!

It's been discussed on Doughboys and a few other NEW ENGLAND centric podcasts but it's fucking bizarre for a NEW ENGLAND MAN in New York City for the first time to see Giants, Jets, and Yankees in local Dunkin spots/posters. It's almost like catching your parents cheating. I highly doubt @Brooklyn Zoo or @Winter Epicland have occasional stomach churning anxiety over the regional allegiance of mediocre chain coffee chains.

 

[Baby Shoes]

The fact the statement “NEW ENGLAND centric podcasts” even exists just goes to show there are way too many podcasts

 

[King Kamala]

I feel like 99% of podcasts have some sort of New England connection tbh.

 

[Hawk 34]

Not everyone lives in this New England bubble pal

 

[Laz]

All I know is my favorite podcasts are GCP, and the host is from my former home of Haverhill, MA.

NEW-NEW-NEW ENGLAND MEN.

WE'AH TAKIN' OVAH, KHED.

 

[BUTT]

Just had a brownie batter donut and it was pretty damn great.

 

[King Kamala]

That is the first time I've read someone saying something unequivocally good about a donut at Dunks in a solid 20 years. Although most of the reviews of that sriracha donut that came out not long ago were "Actually a lot better than you'd think".

Stopped at a Dunks yesterday on a drive home from VDay Weekend getaway and it was a fancier new one where they had wooden tap handles for all of the cold coffee & tea beverages. BOUGEY! New extra charged iced coffee is really damn good too. Score another one for Dunks.

 

[Hoff]

We had it delivered Saturday morning and my breakfast sandwich (sausage egg and cheese so basically an egg burger) and Boston Creme donut were on point, but I had an iced mocha and I got through maybe two sips of it. Cloyingly sweet and artificial tasting. But I'm not a coffee guy so who knows.

 

[King Kamala]

Honestly amazed that none of you have tagged me about Dunkin having avocado toast now.

 

[Laz]

More amazed that you haven't tried it yet, being the only regular Dunkies customer still living in its home turf.

 

[King Kamala]

Maybe after I get paid this weekend. Right now I'm on a budget that budge so I don't want to live up to MILLENNIAL SPENDING HIS LAST MONEY ON SOME DANG AVOCADO TOAST stereotype (especially not for fast food avocado toast).

 

[Baby Shoes]

I heard the toast thing yesterday, assumed it was your fault, but didn’t care enough to make the post.

 

[Hawk 34]

I just assumed they’ve always had this. Didn’t realize the DUNK was so behind the times.

 

[King Kamala]

This ain't Starbucks, Hawk!

 

[Baby Shoes]

Surprised you would even type the word Starbucks, @King Kamala as in doing so some people may start to think you support BIG COFFEE.

 

[King Kamala]

I was a Starbucks loyalist from 2013 to 2018, which probably disqualifies me from ever running for office in Massachusetts. If you include their ground coffee and prepackaged iced coffee that you get at the grocery store, I've probably drunk twice as much Starbucks as Dunks in my lifetime.


I'M A POSEUR!

 

[Laz]

Real talk: the sour dough grilled cheese w/ ham that is on the same billboard as the avocado toast is delicious
