Dunkin' Donuts Sandwich Surprise

What a surprise to (re)discover that Dunkin' Donuts also serves sandwiches. Although most of us are used to Subway's menu, Dunkin' Donuts also serves sandwiches. In fact, they have been doing so even before Subway's debut in Malaysia.

The menu is somewhat similar. There is a choice of 3 breads. There are croissant, white or wholemeal buns. The white and wholemeal correspond to the white and wheat breads at Subway. 

Then there is a selection of 9 types of sandwiches to make. There are some familiar choices like tuna, turkey toast, smoked chicken breast and chicken slice and cheese. There is even a veggie sandwich. The other different choices mostly have to do with egg. While Subway offer an egg sandwich as a breakfast choice, Dunkin Donuts offers them standard. There are double egg and cheese and chicken cheese and egg. There is also a sausage sandwich and chicken mayo sandwich.  The chicken mayo sandwich is shredded chicken in mayonnaise. From what I could see, you get a choice of sliced cucumbers and salads.Finally, you can add chilli or tomato on top of it.
They used to sell crab-meat which was the closest thing to a Subway's seafood sandwich. But it apparently is off the menu. At some places, there is a black sticky tape across the menu. Not all Dunkin' Donuts sell sandwiches. If it's in a mall or hypermarket, most likely it will. If the Dunkin' Donut is in a petrol station, it might not.

So how is it?

Well, before I go on, remember that Dunkin' Donuts is snack place. It's really not the place you go for lunch. Even if you are an overweight, cliche-spewing cop in a TV series. So first off, the portion is not big. The bun is smaller than a 6inch Subway bread. It really is about the size of the buns you can get with the cream in them. Second, the portions are not big either. Finally the selection of toppings and condiments is smaller than at Subways. The saving grace is that it is slightly cheaper. But again Dunkin' Donuts is a snack place.
Which brings me to the question: Why? I understand it used to do so because there was a demand. But can it now compete? Or are they just wasting the meats away?
The Dunkin' Donuts sandwiches are really a snack than a meal. Judge them and consume them as snacks and you should be satisfied.
