(TikTok screencap)
The real crime with DD is the obscene amount of cream they put in their coffee, even if you ask for less.
I ordered that Lady Gi(ardía) please don’t drink mine
If it actually tastes like a lake then it’s probably the ice. Ice machine bins are notorious for growing algae in the bottom and no business likes sanitizing the bin because that requires emptying the bin and therefore not having ice for a while. I’m also willing to bet that dunkin “does their own ice machine cleanings.” Which usually means that once it gets so crudded up that it stops working then they put it through a clean cycle so they can tell the repair tech that that they now have to call that they clean it. Ice machine manufacturers also don’t like to advertize that the built in cleaning cycles don’t actually remove the need to have them professionally cleaned; you only find that out if you read the service manual. Every 3-6 months you still need to take the whole thing apart to manually scrub the biological snot and limescale out of them.
…oh. ok i’m never ordering ice in anything again
Eh, I’m the guy who has to scrub the snot out of them and I still get ice unless I actually know it’s a place that doesn’t clean the machine. Most of the stuff that grows in them is disgusting to look at but benign. Even the concerning ones are often only an issue if inhaled. That’s not to say that a filthy ice machine can’t transmit foodbourne illness. They definitely can. But I’ve seen far more concerning things in various commercial kitchens than dirty ice machines. Also, this will vary by area, but usually the things get plugged full of lime scale to the point that they stop working long before the biofilm gets truely horifying. The only places I ever see where the biofilm gets really bad are bars and places that do in-house baking because yeast loves ice machines for some reason.
was this meant to be reassuring ;-;
You shouldn’t, I’ve never cleaned an ice machine in my life
Including the ones I own
Especially the ones I own
Seems people started communicating with selfies so fucking weird
That’s the entire premise for Snapchat. And yes, it’s fucking weird.
I thought Snapchat was for ribald but short lived photos.
I thought the same. The bar for “memes” got really low recently.
Is this better?
Perfection
I love it, take my upvote!
Sometimes I wonder whether the text is actually from the person in the picture
Most of these tiktoks don’t even add anything beyond the text or music, but the format makes it very easy (almost mandatory) for people to add their own head in there. I reaaaally don’t get the appeal, but I didn’t grow up in an era of the internet where putting your face everywhere was normalized.
Isn’t this just a tiktok screengrab?
i think it makes sense, if she wanted to show product, location and an expression of disgust. however idk why it ended up in this community

Nobody gets Dunk’s because it’s good.
You get it because it used to be like $2 for a coffee and it has a drive through, where the gas station doesn’t. It’s the caffeine equivalent of bottom-shelf vodka.
I got first introduced to Dunks 25 years ago in Boston. They used to actually have a distinct, strong coffee flavor. I didn’t like it, but like you say, it was relatively inexpensive. Over the intervening decades the quality of coffee has been inverse to the sugar content of the Dunkin’ menu. It’s all crappy sugar bombs these days and the distinct flavor that was their brand disappeared about 15 years ago. Also, the vast majority of the street litter these days in my area is dunks. I don’t know what it is about the brand but the paper bags and plastic cups in the road are mostly all dunkin detritus chucked out the window by shitty people.
You pay two bucks for coffee? If I’m paying two dollars or more for a cup of coffee I expect it to be some fancy shit like artisanal dried specialty espresso or some shit like that. God, American coffee culture sucks so much.
God, American
coffeeculture sucks so much.America doesn’t have culture, we have several hundred million “rugged individuals.”
Are you not American or just rural? A cup of basic black in a city ain’t cost 2 dollars for like 5-8 years. Probably even longer.
Not American. Not rural. I live in a major metropolitan city not in north America.
That’s not uniquely American though…you’d easily pay 5EUR for an espresso where I live, and it will just be OK. A cup of filter coffee is also around 5EUR.
An espresso is AU$4 at my favourite local cafe, but their coffee is pretty good since they roast it themselves.
Being a New Englander, I used to get a cawfee from dunkin every morning before work, then I met my wife and she introduced me to french pressed cawfee and I’ve never gone to dunkin’ since.
In the northeast, Aroma Joe’s is better and uses ethically sourced beans. They focus on their drinks and food is an afterthought, exactly what I’m looking for. I just want a tasty, quick, inexpensive espresso drink that I just can’t make at home.
How people can drink anything other than water (flat, sparkling, with citron juice) or apple/orange/etc. juice/spritzer is absolutely beyond me. Drinking pure sugar and basically industrial waste is so stupid like how much do you hate your body?
Not trying to be rude, but please give it a try you will get used to it and feel so much better (also try drinking ~2L a day)
Edit: coffee and milk is bueno ofc
How dare you look down on sugared bean water?
I‘m sorry it‘s just the moment you appreciate coffee without sugar it feels sacrilegious to put sugar in there
Nah, drink as much as your body tells you to. If you don’t need 3l on a day, don’t force it for no reason.
You‘re right I corrected it. I‘m very active and most people I know need more than 2L so my advice is typically more than that. Obviously drink no more than is comfortable, but try not to dehydrate as even 2% dehydration can make your energy synthesis drop >20%.
Coffee drinkers are so weird.
Your choice of bean water doesn’t make you cooler than anyone with a different choice of bean water.
same goes for leaf water, no?
How about old barley water?
Absolutely, but I don’t see tea drinkers making these kind of memes. They just like, drink tea. Coffee drinkers like to pretend their ritual has spiritual overtones to it.
Who are you talking about exactly? It sounds like you’re upset about something you made up.
Yes, my calm but critical response clearly means I’m “upset”
That’s what you think, I suck the water straight out of green bean pods while still on the vine. Can’t get fresher than that…
Oh damn, I can use green beans for my coffee? Gonna save so much money!
Technically you could use any beans for your coffee. The purists might not agree with the name, but be as free as you want to be.
Backed beans coffee!
Get out of my garden you damn bean vampire!
Okay nerd, you need to actually see sometime making this point before your project and screech.
