What kept you coming back was the quality, freshness, and sweet deliciousness of their donuts and Munchkins. As years passed, Dunkin' Donuts has added to their menu selection, branching out into coffee, Coolattas, bagels, and even breakfast enticements--always keeping with that quality standard that keeps a friend coming back for frequent visits. \n\nUnfortunately, I am no longer in New York, and my recent visit to my old friend Dunkin' Donuts here in Sun City West, Arizona brought me face-to-face with a stranger. We ordered two Coolattas--French Vanilla and Hazelnut--and, a 25 count of Munchkins. We were asked to pull around to the front and park, because the person making our drinks messed them up--okay, accidents happen. However, when we finally received our drinks, they were awful, bland, and on the watered down side.\n\nThe Munchkins, those poor Munchkins. I am not even sure they were actually Munchkins. The box contained deflated miniatures of what use to be known as Munchkins. The misshapen spheres were not only sad to look at, but they were hard and stale--worn out and tired, matching their appearance. They were dry and unpleasant to eat. It made us question the quality and standards of this particular Dunkin' Donuts franchise in Sun City West."^^ . . .
