Dunkin' Donuts Customers Served Vegan Donuts with Side of Truth

As part of the national campaign to encourage Dunkin' Donuts to add milk alternatives and vegan donuts to its menus nationwide, Mercy For Animals advocates hit the streets in Chicago this past weekend.

Armed with scrumptious egg-free, non-dairy donuts, served with a side of soymilk and literature on the "Dunkin' Cruelty" campaign, MFA's members spoke with hundreds of patrons about the importance of the world's largest coffee and baked goods chain adding cruelty-free options.

Sadly, Dunkin' Donuts continues to use eggs from hens confined in tiny battery cages so small the birds can't spread their wings, walk, perch or engage in other basic natural behaviors. Milk served at the chain's stores comes from cows confined on filthy factory farms, where their babies are dragged from their sides moments after birth. Despite the growing demand by consumers for vegan fare, Dunkin' Donuts has yet to add a single vegan donut option, or milk alternative, to the menus of its over 6,000 locations.
