Yeah, I know. I’m beating this to death. I know I already asked you to request soymilk at Worcester Dunkin Donuts, but this time you can get some free ice coffee for doing it.

All day today Dunkin Donuts is giving away free iced coffees at all of their locations. What better time to ask for soymilk? DC-based animal rights group, Compassion Over Killing, is taking this give-away as an opportunity for some veg advocacy. They’re asking people across the country to stop by their local Dunkin Donuts, pick up a free iced coffee and remember to ask their local store to get with the times and offer soymilk. There’s even a facebook group about it.

You’re living under a rock if you didn’t already know that there over a dozen Dunkin Donuts in Worcester. If you’re a serious coffee addict you could probably even hit up a couple of locations.

Get ‘er done!

First New York City had a Dunkin Donuts offering soymilk, then 2 DC area Dunkin Donuts added it as an option too. Now let’s put Worcester on the map and get some of our local DD’s to start stocking the good stuff.

We have somewhere around 15 Dunkin Donuts stores in Worcester and a bunch more in the surrounding towns and cities. We can definitely get a few to start offering soymilk. Hopefully Dunkin Donuts will see how much demand there is for soymilk and add it to all of theie 5,500 stores.

So how about this, look at the list below and pick a location that’s close to where you live. Or if there isn’t one close to you, just pick any one. Give them a call or stop by the store and ask to talk to the manager. Ask him or her if they would start offering soymilk. Make sure you mention that there are other Dunkin Donuts that already offer soymilk. It’s that simple. Whaddya say?

The fine folks at Compassion Over Killing in Washington DC have successfully convinced 2 DC-area Dunkin Donuts to offer soymilk. Hooray!

Dunkin Donuts is the world’s largest coffee and baked good chain. Just imagine if they were to offer soymilk at each of their 5,500 stores. Actually, that’s exactly what Compassion Over Killing is trying to get DD to do. They’re calling on people across the country to meet with Dunkin Donuts store managers in their area to request soymilk at all of the 5,500 locations.

We definitely need to get some Worcester DD’s to sell soymilk. We have over a dozen in our little city.

Want to help get soymilk at a local Dunkin Donuts? Here are some tips from the COK feature:

• Contact your local Dunkin’ Donuts store. Click here for store locations and phone numbers. Or, better yet, stop in to your local Dunkin’ Donuts and ask to speak to the manager about adding soy milk. Be sure to let him or her know that there are other Dunkin’ Donuts stores already making this option available to customers.
• Email Dunkin Donuts’ Consumer Care Office and thank them for adding soy milk to two DC-area locations, and ask them to make soy milk available in all locations, like most national coffee chains already do.
• Call Dunkin’ Donuts’ Consumer Care hotline at 1-800-859-5339.
• Write to Dunkin’ Donuts. Express your concerns in a letter and send it to:
  Dunkin’ Donuts Consumer Care
  130 Royall Street
  Canton, MA 02021

Rumor has it that some Starbucks offer vegan scones. I wonder if this an anomaly or if it is spreading throughout their corporate-coffee-empire. In any case, it’s pretty awesome!

But if you’re in Worcester and want some really stellar vegan baked goods, why not swing by the Bean Counter at 113 Highland Street? Or you can get some vegan baked tastiness from Worcester’s underground vegan bakery: Barely Legal Baked Goods. Barely Legal provides cupcakes and other small sweet things to The Q Cafe at 362 Chandler Street.

SuperVegan just blogged about a Dunkin’ Donuts down in NYC adding soymilk. I only recently started drinking coffee, but this is exciting! Looks like they might be testing the market before they launch it nationally.

Andrea from SuperVegan says that Dunkin’ Donuts CEO Jon Luther has offered to add soymilk to some locations based on customer requests. I wonder if we could get Worcester Dunkin’ Donuts to add soymilk. Starbucks has been offering soymilk for a long time already. Maybe they just need a little nudge? You could send them a quick note about it.

In the meantime, Worcester has a few independent coffee shops that already offer soymilk. Try the Bean Counter on 113 Highland Street. They also have offer great vegan cookies and cakes!
