Dunkin' Donuts White Hot Chocolate!


Vile!

First of all, there's no such thing as white chocolate, so please stop calling it that. But with wind chills well below that of a three dog night here in NYC, I'm not gonna ignore a steaming hot new Dunkin' Donuts item, no matter how likely it is to be foul.

The stuff is heinous. The consistency of warm Noxema, and tastes like molten Turkish Taffy* with sugar added until it reaches its saturation point. Then a little bit more sugar. Topped with an overkill-sized dollop of whipped cream. The DD website describes their White Hot Chocolate as possessing "a hint of vanilla," but using the word 'hint' anywhere near this infection-colored goo should get the copywriter pimp-slapped.

I will say this for it. It was so bad, it made me laugh. Pretty hard. And that'll warm you up on a cold day.

*No offense to the probably-dead-by-now purveyors of Bonomos Turkish Taffy, which I enjoyed immensely as a child, and am now craving like a motherfuck.
