I wonder how much coffee they sell after about 11 am?

It's really a fast food store.

I went to a crappy DD a couple of years ago just east of Burlington, VT, and they were all out of donuts. (I was looking for other food).

He calls them "hydrogenated"

It's partially hydrogenated. Fully hydrogenated would be saturated fat

it's odd to see him defend fake fat when he discussed his health issues and obesity here.

One of the "Commandments" of Paleo is "no vegetable oil".

Soybean. Canola. Palm. Corn. Grapeseed. They're called "Industrial seed oils" or ISO's.

If you look at Dunkin Donuts, McDonald's, or any fast food, ISO's are a major source of fat. But when things go wrong, we automatically blame animal fat and point out that these oils are "cholesterol free" and endorsed by the American Heart Association.

In the 1970s and ‘80s, then-coffee giants Maxwell House and Folgers struggled with the reality that the average coffee drinker was getting older every year. Efforts to get young people to pick up the coffee habit were less than successful.

Coffee in this and 80s was god-awful piss water. Old people have no problem drinking instant coffee dish water.

I second that. McD's has better coffee and our Cumberland Farms chain has better coffee also. The donuts at DD are scheise.

We had a thread about this recently. Remember that?

Also I think people remember the shitty coffee which is why they put sugar or sweetener in their coffee and look askance at black coffee drinkers like me.

I drink black coffee too.

Mainly because I did an elimination diet to try no dairy and no added sugar. It took time to get used to black coffee.

I miss regular coffee.

I drink black coffee also. I can leave it in the vehicle and drink it later without milk or cream going bad. I prefer the taste mostly and less dairy is ok for me.

I'm running another dairy test.

My only dairy is goat cheese and grass-fed butter.

It's hard to eliminate dairy. It played an important role in evolution.

There is no industrial seed oil in my diet. That's the hardest thing to avoid in America.

Agreed! At one point I'd grab coffee at DD each morning on my way to work. Once a coworker had mentioned the doughnuts, and I had to say that I truly don't see the donuts. Of course they're there, but I have no interest in them. I'll have the free donut that they give on on National Doughnut Day.

I think that is why I don't like D coffee, it's geared to people who drink it with milk and or sugar.the stronger or better you like the coffee, the more likely you drink it black.
That's why people who use milk and sugar don't like strong coffee, and are less likely to like Starbucks or dark roast.

So I kept hearing. But when I tried it, I was disappointed. Was there a big change over the years? I can't drink any DD coffee without getting an "espresso shot" in it.

I always thought they strategically opened there for Canadian and Upstate customers familiar with the brand.
