Waffle Sandwich!

OK, I tried the sandwich this morning. I don't like it that much. The waffle bottom/top isn't particularly sweet, the bacon is a bit too salty, and the whole thing is lacking in flavor.
I much prefer the McGriddle from McD, and the Croissanwich from BK ("real" food is better than all fast food options, but that's a different matter). I had a caramel coffee afterward, which I've had before and is pretty good (not new, though).

If I order food from DD in the future, I'll stick with the flatbread sandwiches or the pizzas.

23 grams of fat, 200mg cholest (67%), 1000mg sodium (42%). Lacking in flavor?

McGriddle is crap. McMuffin is so much better.

Holla

Bacon and Egg McMuffin FTW.
 
this sandwich is fail simply because California has no Dunkin' Donuts, if it doesn't exist in California it doesn't matter.

A pattern I do not plan on breaking.
If I don't like syrup on my eggs and sausage when I'm just having a regular breakfast, why would it be any different in sandwich form?

It's the sweet + savory + salty combo. Which is why teriyaki beef jerky = awesomeness.

Krispy Kreme makes a much better donut. Dunkin Donuts are like heavy greasy concrete in comparison.

most of the KK's in my area are long gone. And they don't have a sandwich with bacon or sausage on it to my knowledge.

Blegh, we have KK here, I'd much prefer DD.
 
I tried it this morning and it was a let down 🙁

The McGriddle from McDonalds taste better IMO.

It wasn't very flavorful, was kind of dry and was pretty small also.

I think I'll stick with the bagel breakfast sandwiches.

Why WOULDN'T you want syrup on your eggs and sausage? It's heaven on a plate!

Me too. KK is nasty, the smell when I drive by, ugh, makes me wanna puke. They also put 5 metric tons of glaze on their tiny POS donuts.
 
[According to the chain's executive chef, "the new Waffle Breakfast Sandwich is a significant milestone in Dunkin' Donuts' more than 50 year heritage of breakfast innovation," a company press release said.
