Dunkin Donuts' Egg Whites Flatbread Sandwich

As someone watching his cholesterol, I was looking forward to trying the new Dunkin Donuts egg whites flatbread sandwich. I remember thinking a few weeks before it was introduced, that it was unfortunate that DD's offered such delicious breakfast egg sandwiches, but no egg white versions. I assumed it was somewhat beyond current fast-food technology - that DD's would be unable to store, freeze and micro-wave egg whites. Wrong!

Unfortunately, the sandwich I tried, with the turkey sausage, had absolutely no taste. They also offer a veggie egg whites sandwich, but I didn't want to go overboard with the cholesterol avoidance techniques. Too bad. What a disapointment. I figure the turkey sausage would add some zing but I was Wrong!

By the way, here in the Bronx almost all Dunkin Donuts employees are exclusively from Bangladesh. Whenever I see one that's not, I feel like something went wrong with their screening system and a hispanic snuck in under the radar. No knock on the Banglas; they are a great, dedicated work force. More power to them.

Oh, by the way, although America might Run on Dunkin, it's apparently limited to contiguous America. Check out the map logo: where are Alaska and Hawaii? Oh yeah, Hawaii is just busy winning the Little League World Series and Alaska, well, yes, WELL, they're probably getting ready to drill for oil and get the rest of America running.
