3. sorry, I love it
And I despite Starbucks. DnD coffee is much smoother. If I ever get Starbucks, I have to add cartons of sugar & cream just to make it semi-palatable.

Now I'm feeling suspicious. Wait a minute.......Who's been addressing who here? This is all part of your master plan isn't it? You posted those Bostonian remarks on purpose to get my attention because you knew I was a Red Sox fan and somehow you also knew I always have red or pink painted toenails. Diabolical!

more than my home brewed (Costco Organic Rainforest Blend) coffee. I cringe every time I have to get coffee on the road, it all tastes like ass IMO.

9. It's good when there's no alternative, and when some clown
isn't ordering 6 different flavored lattes with ridiculous combinations like half-splenda and half-non-fat cream and half 1% milk with a twist of lime, etc etc.

I've had much better coffee at the local gas station, but nowt beats a good latte from SeattleBucks.

25. coffee is 80% of their profit; the donuts don't even figure into it
Krispy Kreme is almost the inverse (their donuts are WAY better). that being said, I don't particularly like/dislike D&D, altho i hated the place when i first moved here b/c it seemed like it was the only place people went in the morning when there were better places available. go figure :shrug:

33. you can't eat just one
the first night I had one was after a night of drinking. my friend got a dozen, and we went to town on them. they're much "lighter" than other donuts; i ended up eating 7. didn't feel so great the next day :puke:

26. It's better than that burnt crap at Starbucks....
Edited on Tue Dec-14-04 04:01 PM by tjdee
I only like the Hazelnut at D&D, but I get it with cream and sugar so what I really like is warm cream and sugar. :silly:

I wonder if anyone REALLY likes Starbucks, or if they all go there because it's supposed to be the best (and by best I mean most expensive).

I usually get my coffee from the local place, and the best donuts I ever had were from the Shoprite. :shrug:

I love emoticons.

37. Thank you!!! Starbucks tastes burnt to me, too.
I'm not fond of Dunkin Donuts, though - the staff at the ones near me don't speak English and put a TON of sugar into your coffee no matter what you tell them.

Wawa is wonderful, and there's a little local stand (Passero's) which is particularly good, so I don't need either Starbucks OR DD

43. I like DD coffee, but
the best coffee in the country is Audobon's line of fair traded shade grown coffees. yum.

Starbucks gives me a stomach ache - way too bitter.

Caribou Coffee is pretty good too.

Local coffee houses also tend to have superior coffees compared to chain coffee houses, so go to them when you can.

I can't believe I'm telling a bunch of liberals to go to independent coffee houses!!? WHHHUHH?

66. Not only does DunkinDonuts coffee suck ASS
but they won't even put up a condiment station. Some stranger goes behind a big metal box and puts some *shit* into your coffee. And on top of that it sucks ASS. Thank you so much for starting this thread.
