we're running on Duncan just not Donuts
0:04
we're gonna explain what that means and
0:07
hopefully not totally
0:10
you know let let's just roll and see
0:12
what happens
0:15
[Music]
0:26
good morning everybody it's actually
0:28
morning because we are doing breakfast
0:30
sandwiches again and you're probably
0:31
thinking wait a minute we did that
0:32
already right well we broke this up
0:35
because this particular company is not
0:38
necessarily known as fast food and we'll
0:40
get into that in a second but the first
0:42
things first you probably realize on the
0:44
bag when you got it Mom it just says
0:46
Duncan right yeah kind of confusion huh
0:48
yep now a while back they decided to
0:54
take it off so The Story Goes that
0:56
Dunkin Donuts noticed that other
0:59
companies like Starbucks for instance
1:02
weren't just selling coffee they were
1:04
selling breakfast sandwiches pastries
1:06
baked goods Duncan did probably one of
1:09
the smartest things a business can do
1:11
and decided you know what let's drop the
1:13
word and boom they're now Duncan so I
1:16
Gotta Give Them credit on that first
1:18
because that is actually super smart I
1:21
agree it allows them to
1:23
I don't know sell more variety I guess
1:27
and they pivoted which is great I mean
1:29
that is a great thing as long as it
1:31
tastes good it's a great which we'll
1:33
find out in a minute um but yeah so
1:34
Duncan did that recently and yeah there
1:37
were some people going you know what the
1:39
hell why not and they still do sell
1:41
Donuts they don't you know it's not just
1:43
like they're only selling breakfast but
1:46
I think Duncan as you said they pivoted
1:48
correctly and to be honest I mean donut
1:51
business is good I'm sure but it's not
1:53
something you're gonna make billions of
1:54
dollars on Donuts or Donuts everybody
1:56
has a donut you know you can go to the
1:58
supermarket you can go to a local bakery
2:00
so Duncan did what Starbucks did what
2:03
many other people did and gave their
2:06
customers a choice right they gave their
2:08
customers a choice they walked in to get
2:09
a donut and they went oh maybe that's a
2:12
healthier option getting breakfast maybe
2:14
not but maybe exactly so on that note we
2:19
picked out three now there's there's a
2:21
few and uh you just put up the menu up
2:23
there they have quite a few right but
2:25
again if you watched our last episode A
2:27
lot of these are imitation you know
2:29
McMuffins or breakfast sandwiches right
2:32
so we tried to pick three now one of
2:33
them I just said it's an imitation and
2:35
this is an imitation but we picked two
2:37
other ones that are a little odd and
2:39
we're gonna we have to go with this one
2:41
because this one's grossing me out the
2:42
most they call it a Wake-Up Wrap but
2:46
really and I'm going to take this from
2:47
every other YouTuber I've ever heard of
2:49
it's a breakfast taco I mean like why I
2:53
I don't want to eat this at all like I
2:56
really don't want to put this in my
2:57
mouth but I guess for fairness well but
2:59
yeah for a second though I'm also you
3:01
made a point of saying that they changed
3:03
the name to Duncan but if you notice on
3:06
the wrap
3:07
they got rid of the eye it's just in the
3:10
U it's just dnkn I'm just pointing that
3:13
out okay so that is oh and on the other
3:16
one too okay that is weird but on the
3:18
yeah so okay so oh oh yeah
3:21
so first I think what they tried to do
3:23
and I think places like you know I don't
3:25
know like Taco Bell does it now they do
3:27
breakfast is they tried to make a
3:29
portable
3:30
egg sandwich and apparently what's more
3:33
portable than a tortilla
3:36
am I missing something here like I don't
3:39
know I don't know and you know we have
3:41
these delivered today
3:43
um and literally they were they just got
3:46
here and they're kind of like already
3:48
cold so that's what I'm gonna say
3:50
they're a little uh hard and congealed
3:53
and like doesn't it sound delicious Rob
3:55
we should just jump right in but I'm
3:58
taking one bite at least the reason why
4:00
I bring it up though is that when you
4:02
order from fast food and it's delivered
4:04
to you you kind of want it to be hot
4:06
right
4:11
that's really hard it's crunchy
4:16
I don't want crunchy from this
4:25
it was
4:28
oh God I can't swallow it I got white
4:30
cheddar okay I think that's what this is
4:32
because mine looks very white I was
4:34
gonna call it swiss but I think it's
4:35
cheddar
4:36
oh God I couldn't that oh okay I'll take
4:39
another bite you know what honestly as
4:41
gross as this looks it's not the worst
4:43
thing I've actually had to be honest it
4:45
actually has pretty good flavor the
4:46
sausage I think is the best part is
4:49
crunchy that's how that's how
4:52
yeah
4:54
but yeah okay
4:59
single thing is
5:04
all right so sorry I gotta wash this
5:07
down
5:08
that's perfectly fine I'm debating where
5:10
we go now the Egg McMuffin imitation or
5:12
the other one I know you made a comment
5:14
on the other one so maybe we hit that
5:15
one first and end with the Egg McMuffins
5:17
since it's okay all right so this one
5:20
I'm actually I'm a little disappointed
5:22
because I love I love sourdough I love a
5:24
good sandwich for sourdough they toast
5:26
this one it's great and they've promote
5:28
it and again we've talked about how you
5:30
know visually they make fake food so
5:33
what you see in the advertisement
5:34
obviously is not what you get but go
5:36
ahead and open yours up and just show
5:38
the world
5:39
oh so is this what you want to put
5:42
inside your body today no and there's no
5:45
paper wrapping I mean the whole thing
5:47
it's like stuck in a cardboard box the
5:49
whole sandwich is like cockeyed and it's
5:52
it's not it's supposed to be toasted and
5:55
this is not toasted and I oh God
5:58
oh my goodness I'm using a fork on mine
6:01
because this thing is a little greasier
6:03
on mine I don't know about you I'm just
6:04
gonna I'm gonna be the one who shows
6:06
everybody with so you get a piece of
6:07
bread on the top and it literally is a
6:09
piece of bread is supposed to be toasted
6:10
next to it is a piece of that it's it's
6:13
double eggs because it's a double fried
6:16
egg
6:17
and then on the bottom I want to say but
6:20
wait
6:23
there's more on the bottom is that white
6:27
cheese and we must make a caveat here we
6:30
both ordered sausage on here and they
6:33
sent us bacon
6:35
um and not a whole lot of bacon
6:37
which might actually be for the good for
6:39
us but I will I'll add to your caveat
6:42
because something that you showed me
6:44
that I didn't notice the first time is
6:45
you can actually customize so if you
6:47
want a different kind of cheese if you
6:48
want a different kind of egg you can
6:50
actually do that so I'm very surprised
6:52
because Mo yes it's delivery it happens
6:55
but almost every time that I get
6:57
something customized it comes the way
6:59
it's supposed to so I'm very surprised
7:01
that this came because it's like it's
7:03
sausage versus bacon it's not even like
7:05
cheddar versus white you know I'd
7:07
understand that maybe no but they
7:10
totally missed the meat exactly missed
7:13
the meat
7:14
okay you go first
7:16
do I have to yeah you do
7:19
but I'll start as I as you're doing it
7:21
though you can tell me
7:27
okay I don't even know where to go in
7:30
this one
7:31
oh God
7:35
I'm gonna break it open
7:38
and Krista's over here going hers is
7:41
good so maybe I just put the wrong one
7:42
of my body maybe we took the wrong one
7:44
okay I'm just opening this up because I
7:46
can't even get my mouth around it okay
7:47
so at word as I looked right there
7:50
it's taste wise it's fine but I think
7:52
because of the bread and because it's
7:54
sourdough and because it's cold
7:58
it's very hard to chew like it's almost
8:00
like eating hair
8:03
which I'm very disappointed because I
8:05
actually thought this thing was good
8:06
I've heard like I've heard reviews
8:07
people on on commercials like this is
8:10
one of their better sandwiches it's one
8:11
of their better do you think maybe if we
8:13
had eaten it there
8:15
it would have made a difference
8:17
actually it's funny you brought that up
8:19
because I remember I think it was a
8:20
bagel place we went to once and we went
8:22
to this bagel shop and we got these like
8:24
breakfast sandwiches there and right out
8:26
of the oven and we were eating it there
8:27
probably the best thing we had you
8:29
remember that place it was like a New
8:30
York style Bagel so I think part of it
8:34
probably is that part of it is if you go
8:36
there and you eat it it's good but you
8:38
would also think too because like let's
8:40
say you're going through fast food
8:41
you're going through drive-through you
8:42
still got to make it back home right so
8:44
you still got to give yourself five ten
8:45
minutes so my assumption would still be
8:47
that even if I went to go pick it up and
8:49
brought it home
8:51
you know what I mean think about that's
8:53
what we've done in all the other Foods
8:55
right and I don't this is the first time
8:58
that I can say that the food is
9:00
literally cold
9:01
um it didn't make it here well and I
9:05
don't think it has anything to do with
9:06
being delivered or you guys picking it
9:07
up because that's delivery too in all
9:09
effects right right exactly yeah um but
9:12
it's it's not it's not wrapped in a
9:13
tinfoil I mean last week we did Wendy's
9:15
right we did Wendy's and everything was
9:17
still hot
9:19
right that's true all this stuff came
9:21
through I mean uh the the the sandwiches
9:25
yeah all the breakfast sandwiches were I
9:26
mean they were so hot that it was like
9:28
coming through the wrapping yeah the
9:30
stuff was there
9:31
I don't know I mean I will give them
9:34
taste wise like a good maybe solid eight
9:37
out of ten it's not a bad sandwich but I
9:40
think the problem is is maybe I'd have
9:42
to like pop this in the microwave or
9:43
something
9:45
I could it's a frisbee sorry
9:48
I don't know
9:50
um okay so we'll push this to the side
9:51
and we'll do our final and thank God
9:54
goodness you're like our last one this
9:56
one is wrapped so I give them credit for
9:58
that and again like you mentioned
10:00
there's no I or you it's just DK
10:03
yeah D dnkn DNK it sounds like a Fame
10:08
what is it one of those New York uh yeah
10:09
so what kind of braid did you get on
10:11
yours I ordered a
10:13
I think it should be a okay I did get an
10:16
English muffin good okay so they got
10:17
that right thank you Duncan it's got an
10:19
egg on it it's got the sausage this has
10:22
sausage and then again that congealed
10:23
white cheddar maybe we should have gone
10:25
with the regular American cheese that's
10:27
not real anyways oh that is disgusting
10:30
that yes okay well okay so I I will say
10:34
first off if you want to say goodbye
10:36
first I'll talk for a minute um this to
10:38
me is like an Egg McMuffin it's their
10:39
imitation I feel like every place has to
10:42
have an Egg McMuffin now or whatever you
10:43
want to call it
10:46
okay I will tell you because we went
10:48
from cardboard hard sandwich to a very
10:51
very what feels like undercooked English
10:53
muffin yeah very it's like a bit almost
10:55
but if you feel like this should have
10:57
been a little harder like you know as an
10:59
English muffin
11:00
um it feels like you know it feels like
11:03
a different it feels like the Kentucky
11:04
Fried Chicken biscuits
11:09
not that bad mm-hmm it would be better
11:12
if it was hot I mean really this is it's
11:14
not it's it's this is actually I think
11:16
bigger than the McDonald's sausage
11:19
making muffin
11:20
mm-hmm
11:21
this is more substantial no this is
11:24
actually pretty good I think I might
11:25
finish this one yeah no this is not so
11:28
bad
11:30
so
11:32
yeah I mean
11:33
let's look at the um the calories and
11:36
the sodium and all that oh this is the
11:38
part you all come for right because you
11:40
want to know how bad this stuff actually
11:41
is for you right
11:43
all right
11:44
so the one that we're eating right now
11:46
comes with different kinds of breads
11:48
this particular one you have in the
11:49
picture has the uh croissant but after
11:51
last week's excavate with the croissant
11:55
we didn't do that but this has got the
11:57
most of the calories the one that we
11:59
just ate 680 calories 34 grams of fat
12:03
and 1500 milligrams of sodium nice salty
12:08
sandwich right probably why it tastes
12:10
better than the rest right because
12:11
exactly yeah
12:13
the one that we wish would have been
12:15
better and you can even see look at the
12:17
bread on this one the sourdough bread
12:18
it's it's toasted it actually is toasted
12:22
it's not this
12:24
no it is not so that one is the second
12:27
most um in the calories 650 calories and
12:30
it has 32 grams of fat and 1360
12:34
milligrams of sodium so really really
12:37
salty no surprise though
12:39
that this really lovely Taco that we
12:42
have going on over here a wake up wrap
12:45
um and it's small I mean I I think
12:47
somebody wanting to eat something like
12:49
this and liked them would probably eat
12:51
two not just one right it's it's not so
12:53
even still it's still less calories so
12:56
this one has 180 calories
12:59
um 10 grams of fat which is pretty good
13:02
actually right and the sodium is only
13:04
400 well only it's all relative
13:07
470 milligrams um I don't care how low
13:11
and fat this is or how low in calories
13:13
there it's a frisbee this thing is like
13:15
hard as a rock not eating it
13:19
a tortilla should not make that noise in
13:22
that form oh my goodness
13:24
crunchy it's literally crunchy it's like
13:27
a tortilla chip you know I thought this
13:29
was going to make up for the horrible
13:31
breakfast sandwiches last time but I
13:33
don't think this did at all I think this
13:34
just made it that much worse so maybe
13:36
we're done with the breakfast sandwiches
13:38
for a long time now I don't even know
13:40
which one to say is the best I think we
13:41
have to you know what let's change this
13:43
and say which one is the worst
13:46
well in that case I'm going for the taco
13:49
that is probably my most favorite Taco
13:51
too and I really I think that the best
13:53
the betting one
13:58
tasty the the
14:00
um pretend make you know uh McDonald's
14:03
uh sausage egg McMuffin kind of right
14:05
whatever it's called these sausage egg
14:07
and cheese sandwich that one I think had
14:09
the most taste it also had the most salt
14:12
as well so the winner for me you Rob
14:15
what about you you know I mean if I'm
14:18
gonna be nitpicky and have to pick
14:20
something that I would probably actually
14:21
finish probably the the McMuffin style
14:25
one which is unfortunate because I will
14:28
tell you I really like a good sourdough
14:30
sandwich yeah you know it just I'm
14:34
thinking I'm thinking might that maybe
14:35
no I won't maybe the dog would like the
14:37
egg I don't know we'll see
14:39
I don't even know if that would be a
14:41
thing but so we always like to let you
14:45
know about some of the swag that we have
14:47
we have the taste unisex tri-blend
14:49
t-shirt and it says the taste on it and
14:51
comes in different colors as well if as
14:53
well as you want to check that out we
14:55
also have the aprons the adjustable
14:57
apron for all of us who need them it's
14:59
like a gigantic napkin you know if you
15:01
know you're going to be messy you don't
15:02
even put it on the barbecue you can put
15:04
it on while you're eating that's all the
15:06
food just falls down
15:08
um and of course the water bottle we all
15:10
love water bottles and all of these
15:11
items guys all you have to do is take
15:12
your camera out and just scan this code
15:15
it will take you straight over we'll
15:17
also put the links in the chat as well
15:20
and then finally a great coffee mug I
15:23
love these rob you know why I like these
15:24
so much I like the contrasting and
15:26
colors I like the fact that it's a
15:28
different color on the inside than it is
15:30
on the outside and I especially like it
15:31
the black on the inside because for
15:33
those of us who drink a lot of coffee
15:34
and it's a white inside we know what
15:36
happens it gets Brown and all yucky on
15:39
the inside no matter how many times you
15:40
wash it so when you have something like
15:42
this it kind of hides that kind of gross
15:44
stuff going on
15:46
there you go all right
15:48
oh my goodness
15:50
oh my goodness is all I can say
15:54
well the next time it won't be this so
15:56
we've done our breakfast sandwiches
15:57
people do not ask us to do these ever
15:59
again we're done ever again we will go
16:02
back to eating more Rob I'd be curious
16:04
to hear from people who watch you know
16:05
let us know in the comments what would
16:07
you like to see us taste we'd love to
16:09
hear from you what would you like to see
16:11
us taste make it something other than
16:13
this because
16:15
okay
16:17
we'll see you next time everyone have a
16:20
great day
