More Scary Donuts

Aaaaand the Dunkin Donuts' "Smart Donut" campaign continues. The tofu donuts launched earlier in the year were surprisingly good, but following last week's broccoli donut scare, three new frightening donut concepts have hit the shelves:

First up, the "Red Bean Holic Ring". Red bean is a mean product because it looks deceivingly like chocolate. Usually if a Korean offers you something chocolatey-looking to eat... WATCH OUT- it's probably red bean. The taste, while not being immediately objectionable, is pasty and bland. And if you're a "holic" for this stuff, you've been seriously deprived, food-wise.

Next up, the "Carrot Donut". Everyone likes carrot cake, so in theory this could have been pretty good. We bought one, hoping it would have cream cheese frosting, but found out that we were just eating a generic cake donut with orange sprinkles. Bugs Bunny would not approve.

Last up, and tied for foulest donut concept ever with the aforementioned broccoli donut, is the SPINACH DONUT! Spinach!!!! On a donut!!! *insert disappointed Popeye joke here*

I hope this has been good news for those of you struggling to reach your recommended number of vegetable servings per day- little did you know, you're just one Dunkin Donuts trip away from a healthy day!

On a related note, a quick check of the US Dunkin Donuts website shows that a new pepperoni stuffed breadstick product has been launched... any idea when that will be for sale in Korea? Huh? I'm a "holic" for pepperoniz.
