If you are adding flavors, or more than a touch of cream and sugar, or going for the fancy Starbucks drinks, the chances are you just don't like the flavor of coffee. So you are not going to appreciate a strong coffee flavor. It doesn't mean that the coffee is bad.

I like coffee and drink it black. But, I genearlly don't like most dark roasts. That doesn't mean they are bad coffee, it just means that I don't care for that style of roast.

I like the flavor of coffee; I just like it with cream and sugar, not black. It's like chocolate: by itself, chocolate is actually pretty nasty, but once they process it and add sugar it's amazing. How you prefer your coffee might have to do with how you're introduced to it (much like booze... and sex, LOL).

I do think that, if coffee is bad, it can be masked much easier by adding cream and sugar. If you drink coffee black, you definitely get the true taste of the coffee and a crappy cup can't hide behind the trimmings. Sometimes I'll drink a cup with sugar but not milk, or with milk but not sugar, and it's amazing how it changes the whole experience.

I always picked up a couple of extra CreamCheese filled glazed long johns. They were still warm when I got them back to the restaraunt and we would enjoy those with some good CAINS coffee.

I don't know about NOW but back in the day the CAINS coffe we used to buy beat the shit out of just about everything I have ever tried to date.

Sweet. I'm in MHK quite often, I'll have to stop by next time and pick up some donuts.

I definitely agree about the Cains coffee too. Cains is my everyday coffee of choice. Much better than any similar priced brands. Can't find it very easily in KC though. Walmart, Hyvee, Pricechopper don't carry it for some damn reason. At least not the ones I've shopped at here.

Damn, wonder if Dunkin had it taken down..

Some group did a video where they put a dozen Dunkin donuts and some generic donuts in a cabinet for a month.. The dunkins still looked fresh from all the preservatives and additives while the other donuts went stale and moldy..

So, it sounds like the coffee is good, but are the donuts any good?

Actually, I think the donuts still ARE pretty good. They make a good French cruller, their jelly donuts are passable, they make a nice glazed blueberry, the chocolate and honeydip and other variously-coated donuts (coconut, butternut, etc.,.) are good... Don't get me wrong, they won't beat a great homemade donut from a small independent shop but, for chain donuts, they're very good.

no, in fact, i'd almost rather have like those lil' hostess 'gems' instead. Their donuts are really lousy, dry and they're cheap w/ the toppings.

Enter Tommykat to tell us about her dognuts.

Simply Red 07-06-2009 03:44 PM

in all fairness, yes their Blueberry caked donuts, are legit, but they suck at the basics, such as glazed and iced long-johns, etc. etc....

Simply Red 07-06-2009 03:45 PM

so folks in Olathe, don't get too excited, kay?

KCChiefsMan 07-06-2009 03:50 PM

when I lived in Boston, THE place to get coffee was dunkin donuts. They don;t know what "black" coffee means, or they think it's offensive, and they didn't know what no cream and no sugar meant either. I found it very odd
