Dunkin' is pushing the Smokehouse Sausage Breakfast Sandwich pretty hard these days. The SSBS is sausage, egg, and cheese on an English muffin. The sausage's pedigree is supposed to distinguish this from every other Dunkin' Donuts breakfast sandwich. It's from Hillshire Farms, which doesn't mean much to me, and its novel shape—a split link rather than a patty—seems a dubious departure, since "It's easy to cram into your mouth" sits pretty high on the list of positives regarding most DD sandwiches.

As Dunkin Brands, the corporate parent and franchisor of many Dunkin' Donuts locations,
prepares its upcoming IPO, there has been no shortage of new products released by the company lately; following on the heels of their
Big n' Toasty, they've just released the Blueberry Waffle Sandwich: egg and cheese with sausage or bacon on two blueberry waffles.

Dunkin' Donuts launched a few on-the-go snack products this week, including
stuffed breadsticks and warm apple pie. We picked them up, continuing our dedicated coverage of Dunkin's new breakfast launches (see
Big n' Toasty and
Pancake Sausage Bites).

A breakfast staple for generations,
Dunkin' Donuts is no longer just a coffee and doughnut stop;
they now have an entire line of breakfast sandwiches, and often features limited-time only "savory" offerings, like the
pancake sausage bites. Their newest? The
"Big N' Toasty," a limited-time-only breakfast sandwich—double bacon, double egg, and thick slabs of Texas Toast.

I couldn't help but notice when Dunkin rolled out this new product. It seemed so absurd and a little gross: a pancake-like munchkin with a sausage inside? But when the average consumer makes a Mr. Yuck face,
yours truly has to step in to stomach the unstomachable. If it's new, I'm gonna try it.

Halloween is right around the corner. Drugstores have stocked shelves with candy; another sequel to
Saw is coming out; someone
carved Ed Levine's face onto a pumpkin. And knowing that holidays bring business, a number of large chains are currently serving up pumpkin treats as limited-time offers. Are any of them tasty? Take a look.

In the age of corporate strategy, there's no way a competitor will let you dominate a market unchallenged for very long. A while back, Dunkin' began offering
egg white flatbread sandwiches, a lower-calorie alternative to its heavier breakfast fare—and to bolster their breakfast offerings, Subway now makes flatbread versions of their own breakfast sandwiches. I set out to see how they would compare.

If there's one thing we all do on the fly, it's grab coffee. So it's a natural candidate for the fast-food world. Recently, McDonald's began offering Iced Coffee, stepping on the toes of Starbucks and Dunkin' Donuts.
All three offer standard iced coffees, as well as sweet and flavored twists on the iced coffee theme. Intrigued, I set off to compare the three offerings.

Even people who swear they won't touch fast-food seem to make exceptions for breakfast sandwiches. Something about the combination of egg, melted cheese, salty meat, and toasted bread is so satisfying, not to mention a lifesaver on those especially rough mornings. You go from zero to feeling-more-like-a-real-person in just a few bites.
We tried sandwiches from 11 different chains, and were surprised when only White Castle fried a fresh egg in front of us. More results and photos of the favorite English muffin, bagel, ciabatta, croissant, and toast 'wiches.

[Photograph: Andrew Siddons] Fried dough and fermented cabbage aren't two things that usually join forces, except maybe in South Korea where my friend spotted this kimchi donut. It's one of five "ethnic" flavors that Dunkin' Donuts launched (they also made a yogurt-filled one in Greece and soy-filled one in Japan). Technically there's no hole, so they're calling them kimchi croquettes. File this under: potentially genius or a vile, gag reflex-inducing mistake.
