Dunkin' Donuts, the chain famous for its jelly filled doughnuts with icing on top or covered in chocolate sprinkles, is introducing a new healthy menu. The so-called DDSmart menu will be introduced on August 6. It doesn't include any doughnuts.
DDSmart will include all current and new items that either have 25 percent fewer calories, sugar, fat or sodium than comparable products or contain ingredients that are "nutritionally beneficial." The new fare includes an egg white veggie flatbread sandwich that has 15% less sugar, fat, saturated fat, salt and calories than the sausage, egg and cheese croissant on the current menu. The sandwich has 290 calories and contains 9 grams of fat, or 14% of the daily allowance, and 680 milligrams of salt, which is 28% of the daily allowance.
Other new items on the DDSmart menu will be a reduced-fat blueberry muffin and a multigrain bagel. "We're staying very true to our brand and very true to our heritage," says CEO Stan Frankenthaler. "We're just growing and evolving." (AP)
