Dunkin' Donuts is NOT a private company. It is a subsidiary of Allied Domecq, which was recently acquired by Pernod-Ricard. In other words, hold onto your hats, Dunkin' Donuts is..... FRENCH.

You are incorrect.

Dec 5, 2005--Three private equity firms have agreed to pay $2.43 billion for Dunkin' Donuts and two other restaurant chains, the companies announced Monday.

French beverage company Pernod Ricard SA agreed to sell Dunkin' Brands to Thomas H. Lee Partners, the Carlyle Group and Bain Capital four days after bidding closed in an auction for the U.S. fast food company — owner of the Dunkin' Donuts chain, Baskin-Robbins ice cream parlors and Togo's sandwich stores.

Back in American hands, and free from Sharia and liberalism. Drink up!

Alrighty, then!

There's just one problem. I like the donuts (and can't eat them often).... but I hate their coffee.
