"Corporate" has decided that the classic chocolate frosted donut will no longer be available. They only sell them with sprinkles. This is a travesty!

Weird call. They easily could have eliminated any other number of things.

I put a few extra 0's on an order, ha - you know how that goes - and a week later - fuck me! - I've got 800 pallets of goddamn sprinkles in my warehouse. So, th- right, I am fucked, haha! So I made a few phone calls, and we want you to nix the standard chocolate donut from the menu. For now. No no no, this is just, eh, this is just temporary, Bill. Take alllllll those chocs, lay 'em out in the parking lot, and I'll swing by with Merv here in a few hours and- what's that? Oh yeah, we're going to sprinkle those cocksuckers. Fuck 'em, Bill, the customer can eat sprinkles, the fat fucks. If they don't like it they can brush 'em off."

They should just eliminate the donuts entirely. Fucking garbage. Even 7-11 has better donuts.

they only thing i like there are fresh munchkins (no really fresh anymore). there is just something about them. the dunkin donuts here i don't believe do any frying. they get them frozen and pop them in the oven. when we were kids, we used ot get to sit on a stool and watch them make them. what a travesty.

we have 2 places here that just destroy dunkin donuts and are even cheaper. they fry starting at 4 in the morning.

we lost all our dunkin donuts in the Quad Cities in 1996 or 7. we got one back in like 2010 or so and and one day we went in and it was like 10:00 and they were out of some donuts. I was like, well just freaking make them. they were like they are trucked in sorry. I was like, well thats it for me. Hyvee donuts are better.

Can't they just pause the sprinkles-adding machine while they're making chocolate-iced donuts?

Also, the drive-thru at Dunkin Donuts should be for Coffee and Non-toasted items only. If you need something toasted you take your fucking ass inside. They actually enforce this in Boston.

Exactly same issue with Tim Horton's. The Brazilians came in and turned Tim Horton's into a super efficient operation in producing shit.

Tim Horton's coffee is still wonderful though.

Anyways, The U.S.A, Land of the Free, Home of the Diabetic doesn't need to be eating a donut or toasted cheese sandwich for breakfast anyways. Just eat your banana and black coffee with Elmurst Stevia for breakfast.

i have a banana with wheaties, grapefruit juice, and occasionally cheerio's or plain oatmeal.

on the rare occasion i do DD, i couldn't care less about where it's manufactured. when you have a steady diet of bland, a sugar rush is a sugar rush. fuck it.

This. There are still a few that I think make them in house (St Charles on North Ave comes to mind) and those are quite good.

I probably gained a good 5 lbs when 7-11 had the 2 for $2.22 on the apple bear claws a few months back.

I remember about 25 years ago my sister was applying for a job with DD in my hometown. The manager told her during the interview that if she would drop a donut on the ground, she would have have to pick it up and put it on the display for sale. Losing out on 20 cents worth of product was too much, I guess.

I pretty much stopped going to DD after I heard that.

It's sad what they became. Why can't you compete with Starbucks and make decent donuts?
