Wait, is this just like when Ihop said they were changing their name to Ihob; and then the next day were like “Not! God, I can’t believe you really believed we would do that. You’re such an idiot.” I hate when corps do that.

They’ve already permanently overhauled a bunch of their locations in Boston as just “Dunkin’”, so no, this is their new corporate branding.
Honestly, they may as well go all the way and just rename the chain “Dunkies”, since that’s what everyone around here calls it anyway.

If I was the marketing director, I’d just go with the New England name and be done with it.

I’d like to see some truth in advertising, something like “Why Your Uncle Pamplemousse Looks Like He’s Nine Months Pregnant Donuts”. True, it’s kind of long, but it’s hard to forget.
ETA: If they’re going to go with Dunkin’, maybe they could branch out from the pastries a bit. I know something like this would get my day off to a good start.

My wife went to a Dunkin’ last Sunday to grab a dozen doughnuts for an event. Her plan was foiled because the Dunkin’ had no doughnuts. Apparently they just plain ran out. Still had plenty of bagels and muffins for sale though. It seems like this should have been embarrassing for the workers, but apparently they were totally blase about it. This is America, not some third world shithole. We expect our megacorps to have their act together with regards to inventory management.
