I guess Rachael Ray doesn't run on Dunkin

Dunkin Donuts commercial

Just so you know, this really isn't turning into the Rachael Ray Blog, but when something like this comes up, I have to post about it.

A source who was on the set as Rachael filmed her new Dunkin Donuts commercial discloses that Ray picked up a cup of coffee and took a sip and immediately said "What is this shit? Give me my coffee!" I guess Rachael isn't as bubbly as she appears on TV. (For the record, her coffee is Starbucks.)

And may I take this opportunity to stick up for Dunkin Donuts coffee? I'm not a coffee drinker, but their coffee is good.

I just don't know what to believe anymore...

Which may not even be true, because even RR cant be that stupid to make negative comments on the set of her DD commercial. Also, I would never drink DD coffee for the mere fact that where I live at least a dozen DD shops were closed down by the health department because they were so filthy.

The drag for us is there is a very convenient DD nearby and no SB for miles. It's probably just as well. We'd go broke. :)

I hate to say it, but I far prefer Starbucks to DD for the simple fact that the baristas at S'bucks are genial and understand my questions while the DD employees give me vacant stares when I say "what kind of donut is that?" (pointing to unlabeled donuts) or inevitably put sugar in my coffee after I say "cream, NO sugar".
