Dunkin' Donuts Ad Promotes Terrorism!

A (surprise!) right-wing columnist says she's promoting terrorist fashion.

Quote:

---

BOSTON -- Dunkin’ Donuts abruptly pulled an ad featuring its pitch woman Rachael Ray after a conservative commentator wrote that the scarf Ray wore in the ad looked like a keffiyeh, a traditional headdress worn by Arab men.

Ray, who hosts a daytime talk show and two programs on the Food Network, wore a silk scarf with a black-and-white paisley design in the commercial. Some thought it looked too much like a keffiyeh.

“The keffiyeh, for the clueless, is the traditional scarf of Arab men that has come to symbolize murderous Palestinian jihad," Fox News commentator Michelle Malkin wrote in her syndicated column."

Popularized by Yasser Arafat and a regular adornment of Muslim terrorists appearing in beheading and hostage-taking videos, the apparel has been mainstreamed by both ignorant and not-so-ignorant fashion designers, celebrities, and left-wing icons," Malkin wrote.

Dunkin’ Donuts denied the similarity, but decided to pull the ad.

“Absolutely no symbolism was intended. However, given the possibility of misperception, we are no longer using the commercial," the company said in a statement.

Malkin said she was pleased with the company’s response

Fuck Dunkin' Donuts for listening to this cunt. This is the stupidest thing I've heard in a while.

"When will God give Rachael Ray boobies?"

The real act of terror here is associating that annoying cunt Rachael Ray with superb Dunkin' Donuts coffee.

Rachel Ray has no soul.

I don't know why people get angry over Michelle Malkin. She does that shit all the time. I've just gotten used to it. I don't understand the right wing hate, either, so it shows what I know.

Dunkin Donuts customer contact line. Bitching at them might be more fun than on a forum, assuming you could find one single person on the other end who'd actually care about what you have to say.

I'd watch the commercial if they beheaded her after searing her eyes shut with scalding coffee and choking her to death with a bearclaw.

Or speaks english.

Rachel Ray scares me.

I'd bang her

Yeah, I think cka has the right idea here.

Maybe with a paper bag over her head. That face is frightening.

eh. who cares?

I tried to be slick but you fuckers are too fast!

This is stupid, but kind of amusing after all the "they slight Islam, they are our enemies!" news stories I've been exposed to. Maybe even Muslims don't want to be associated with Rachel Ray.

Anyone who does anything that affects Dunkin' Donuts negatively should be hanged by the neck until dead. I don't know or care who this Malkin person is, but I want her dead. Pineapple, get on that for me. You will be rewarded well.

Mister Donut is so much better.

Unfortunately in the US they're the same company.

Krispy Kreme IMO.

Krispy Kreme is fucking clown shoes.

We don't get Dunkin' Donuts here in this backwater country. Only Donut King.

Krispy Kreme has waaaaay too much fucking sugar.

So why does everyone hate her?

There's putting some sugar in and on a donut and then there's krispy kreme which just takes a bag of sugar shapes it like a donut and says here eat this.

All I see is a mouth that can open very wide, and that's a good thing.

A lot of people hate her because she's bit of a bane to cooking. She's all about cutting corners, using cheap ingredients, and using "inauthentic" means to achieve the end. She seems to cater to the housewife that's cooking because she has to.

She also has a lot of really annoying phrases and words that she says, like WHAM-OH! And "EVOO (EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL)". This second one wouldn't be too annoying, except she explains what the acronym means EVERY DAMN TIME.

I think she just settled into a shitty personality on Food Network. Giada is the sexy Italian who has mastered the sensual slurping sound, Alton Brown is the awesome faux-food scientist, and Rachael Ray is the dorky Midwestern girl.

I made a mistake. I thought that when you asked "why does everyone hate her", you were actually like me and had absolutely no clue who she was before seeing this topic. Turns out you're just some dirty Rachel Ray defender, in which case I have to respond with no, a lot of people do not have TV shows where they do shit like introduce 30 minute recipes that cannot be completed in 30 minutes. In fact, I think it's just her. All I know is when I follow a recipe from 3 minute cooking it takes me 3 fucking minutes to make it just like the show says it should, and when I end up taking 4 or 5 minutes it's my own damn fault. 's all I'm saying.

Eh. She's not a chef or a gourmet or anything but she has some recipes that are really good in a homey sort of way. She's annoying as all fuck, but her food tends to be pretty tasty.

But that Yum-o, evoo (extra virgin-I KNOW WHAT IT IS FUCK--shit bugs me to no end.

Boston fails again.

Sooo... If Dunkin' Donuts cracked and removed this add when one right-wing nutjob said that a scarf made Rachael Ray kinda-sorta-but-not-really look like a male Arab, how long can it be before Dunkin' Donuts folds under pressure again and removes the actual male Arabs from behind the store counters?

Sorry bitches, but Rachael Ray is fucking awesome.

Yum-o!

animegirl won this thread. That should have been the pic in the actual article! But then that right-wing commentator's head would have asploded.

http://www.the-nextlevel.com/board/a...1&d=1212070011

It's funny that the cops don't seem to care.

Some kook complaining about the ad, and Dunkin' Donut's subsequent pulling of said ad, is yet another example of how (as Simon Phoenix aptly put it) "The world has become a pussy-whipped, Brady Bunch version of itself, run by a bunch of robed sissies."

And why hate Rachel Ray? She was a nobody, became rich and famous, and is now milking it for all it's worth in an attempt to become the next Martha Stewart. Most of you would probably whore yourselves out the same way if you were in her shoes.

Isnt it YUM-O!? I place book in our direct mails and she has a book called YUM-O. Seriously..the approvals for some books by some publishers/estates/celebs before we print is ridiculous!

I hate her because she has one look on her face and that's the one where it looks like her jaw has been wired open and her soul has been removed. Every time I go into a bookstore or near a magazine rack, there she is with the vice grip open, waiting to clamp down painfully hard onto something.

If she could, you know, have a normal look on her face instead, well, I'd say more power to her.

Tip # 2 for enjoying Krispy Kreme: Luther Burgers will FUCK YOU UP. Be ware.



this tip brought to you by the "things you get dared into while working for Adult Swim" council for health and wellness

tip #3: Krispy Kreme's right out of the oven are the best. If you buy a store bought Krispy Kreme you are a failure.

edited at Yellerdogs request.

That should be tip #3. For real f'real.

tip 4: If you DO eat a hot Krispy Kreme ... grab a napkin. Also, grab a coffee ... from Dunkin Donuts.

She's a corporate puppet. A rich corporate puppet, but a corporate puppet nonetheless. They tell her "smile" and she says "how wide?"

But I guarantee once the director yells "cut" she goes right into super bitchy cunt mode.

That sounds like a special move in a Japanese fighting game.

I bet she fucks like a wildcat though.

Rachael Ray is the loudest person alive. I have had the misfortune of being at a Borders during one of her book signings. Scary stuff.

When they're fresh is the only way I can understand why some people go so crazy over them. The first time I had one like that surprised me. Still, nothing special at room temperature.

No there wasn't. That was one of those Chinese places that used the DD font (and sometimes the name - there's one near Northridge that calls itself that but when you walk in they have chicken and waffles, too, and it's all Chinese). There has not been a DD in California since 1990 and they were only in the big city areas like downtown LA. I think there were four or five of them total.

They are thinking of opening a bunch up again, though, which is SUPER good news. They need to start in San Fran and spread out... then, once they've conquered California, it's on to Washington.

I'm pretty sure it was a DD. I may be wrong, but I lived there for 12 years. I think it did get switched toward the time I moved now that I think back, though.

I don't get the craze over KK. You can get a fresh glazed donut at any bakery that makes a decent donut and it's just as good or better

Ever since Tourettes Guy, I've always wanted to try something from a Jolly Pirate Donuts in Ohio. As for KK, they're alright warm, but DD is good anytime. And you can only get DD coffee at DD.

---

Yes, but I thought the charm of KK also had a lot to do with convenience. You don't find many good bakeries in malls or whatever. But it's not so convenient for us up here now! As far as I know most of the KKs that opened up here in the last few years closed. I don't think there are any left in Mass.

Also, Dunkin Donuts coffee isn't very good. It's not hard to have better coffee at home. I don't know what's wrong with everybody.

Pineapple, get Grave after the Fox news lady.

I buy my DD at the grocery store. It's worth the price because even though it comes from my coffee maker, it still tastes great.

WTF, I didn't know they sold it at the store? I'm usually not a big coffee drinker, but DD coffee is different. The hunt to find it is on!

I have yet to find it in a store, but I picked up a couple bags from a DD on my last trip to Dallas. Indeed, it is just as good in the home brewer.

Fuck it. I'm walking to the Albertson's right down the street from me to pick up a bag.

Yeah DD coffee is sold in supermarkets all over here in NJ. They come in non-grind too so you can grind the coffee yourself.

Are you trying to beat Biff in the protip vs. Just because, Pineapple?

I don't have to try.

I just am.

I think you're supposed to be attacking me because I don't think DD coffee is that good. I just don't! I'm sorry! :cry: I used to eat their breakfast sandwiches a lot when I lived above one, though. Decent bagels too. And when I was in PA I enjoyed the hell out of one of these:

Don't worry, I hate coffee. ESPECIALLY DD coffee.

I do like their boobs, though.

Well, that's your personal taste. No need to attack you for your preferences. Just out of curiosity, what kind of coffee do you prefer?

Oh, and their breakfast bagel sandwiches are quite good, too. Fattening as hell, but sometimes you just can't resist.

I like DD coffee more than Starbucks, but if push came to shove I like Wawa coffee the best.

I've always had bad luck with fast food coffee. Always tastes like there's something wrong with it. I don't like cream or sugar in coffee either so I can't hide it with that. When I used to live near the North End, Polcari's was the shit. I haven't had that much coffee since I got out of school and decided to give my heart a break, but the last few bags I picked up were stuff that sounded interesting from Whole Foods. I remember trying illy (medium roast?) on the recommendation of someone here and enjoying that also.

I dig the croissants more than the bagels, but all those sandwiches are awesome. Deadly but awesome.

I love Illy. Maybe it was me that recommended it? But really, you can get a pretty good cup of coffee by grinding the beans fresh and using distilled water. Having a clean coffee maker makes a pretty big difference, too. If you use a drip coffee maker, throw the filter holder into the dishwasher whenever you wash dishes. I've found that hand washing it never works as well; sponges just can't get into the grooves.

Run your coffee machine with vinegar in it through one cycle. Then do it again with water.

Sparkling clean.

My sister came home from Guatemala the other night with some bags of coffee.
I don't particularly like coffee but this shit smells like I would imagine great coffee should smell.

I can, and do, attack people for their personal taste. ESPECIALLY when it comes to music. However, I'm just joking about the coffee. I actually liked that new Pike Place roast thing that Starbucks has, it was very... earthy? I don't know how to describe the taste other than that and, maybe, wholesome?

I shall also try this Illy you speak of.

Man, that's exactly the same word that came to my mind when I first tried it. Earthy. I couldn't figure out why the fuck I was thinking it at the time, but at least I'm not the only one.

This reminded me that my Nicaraguan friend is indeed in Nicaragua right now. She brought me back some coffee last year for my birthday and that shit was divine.

7-11 coffee is better AND cheaper. Why doncha stick THAT in a bushel basket?

1. I don't believe you.
2. There's not a 7-11 that I can think of in town or anywhere in Northeastern Florida.

Since you are in the LA area you should try to find Groundwork coffee. It's the best I've ever had. I don't know how they do it, but there is not a trace of bitterness in it. It's super smooth, and still really flavorful. They have their own cafes and also supply many others in the LA area. I'm sure someone in the LBC serves it. http://lacoffee.com/about_us.html

I love DD coffee, even though I'm aware that it's not that great. It just tastes like home to me. Before they carried it in all the grocery stores my parents were always sending out bags to me for pretty much every holiday.

I live in Boston, and am not especially fond of DD, personally. :\

Waffle House coffee might actually be better.

Which is horrifying.


Gallery Espresso Savannah GA FTW.

DD iced coffee is great.

Krispy Kreme tried to launch in New England a few years ago and all their stores were shut down within a year, we fucking love Dunkin Donuts up here

You guys love the SHIT out of some crappy doughnuts.

DD iced coffee would be alright if they knew how to mix the sugar properly. You get a half-inch of sugar at the bottom of the cup. Every time.

I always order w/o sugar and add my own. I hate when they use the syrup instead of real sugar.

There is no comparison between DD donuts and KK donuts. I find you NE'ers crazy. Maybe it was the coffee that did it, but seriously.

I am a huge DD guy, but I won't defend their donuts. Coffee, breakfast sandwiches, muffins, bagels, all good. The donuts are dry and not tasty enough. KK glazed puts them to shame. It's still not worth going to KK over DD though because they only have one type of donut worth buying, and their coffee sucks.

I'd rather go to some indy coffee shop, personally.

If Dunkin' didn't put 99% of 'em out of business up here. Friggin New England.

DD misspelled "Diarrhea" as "Hazelnut" on their drive-through menu. You'd think a company with deep enough pockets to hire Rachel Ray and fund terrorism could at least pay someone to proofread.
