DD Smart Choice

So if I don't have time in the AM to prepare a solid breakfast I used to settle for a whole wheat bagel with light cream cheese from Dunkin Donuts with a coffee (either hot or iced, always black). Recently Dunkin Donuts has come out with two "DD Smart" Opitions. The Egg whites Flat bread sandwiches. One with Turkey Sausage, low fat mozzerella cheese and spinach, the other vegatarian with low fat chedder, both on multi grain flat bread. Both are under 300 Calories. The Turkey Sausage on is 280 and the Veggie is 290.

Here's my point. So many people complain that there aren't healthy options out there and here is a company known for their Sugary Treats, providing a healthier, more nutritious items then say their Glazed Donut (230 Cal, 30g CHO, 12g Sugar) or even a Wheat Bagel (330 Cal, 62g CHO, 7g sugar). We can argue that this egg white flat bread sandwich is still made with preservatives yada yada yada but we need to support this effort of Dunkin Donuts. So often we see companies come out with alternative, healthier choices but they soon disappear from the menu because no one is buying them. Remember it's a business and if there isn't a return of money on DD Smart Choices, they will be gone in 2 months. I garuntee it. There is a need for healthy options in the country but again when a company creates these healthier alternatives, they aren't supported. Go to Dunkin' Donuts and show your support for these sandwiches. Show the corporate office that there is a market for these products and that people will buy them and that people want smarter choices. If Dunkin Donuts shows that there is a want for these products (we know there is a need but there has to be a want), you will see copy cats with similar options in the near future.

Thats my rant.
