Honestly I'm surprised that some of you aren't obese over there, it was like eating a bowl of sugared fat.


Dunkin Donuts taste slightly less sugary, but they are still donuts, and donuts are meant to have fat and sugar.

That they are, but quantity is quite an important factor.

It was an impressive feat, completely eradicating any taste of dough, vanilla, and chocolate.

Probably a franchise thing. Or maybe if they're being baked in the South and shipped it's because they're not as fresh.

Dunkin Donuts quality varies from one franchise to the next. Like one time I went to a Dunkin Donuts at one of the airports around NY -- forget if it was Newark or Laguardia or what -- and it was absolutely terrible. But the ones in Boston are good.

We never had them up here when I was growing up.

Still, at least we're getting more and more American chains: Fatburger ain't bad.
