Dunkin gets rid of alt milk surcharge
(CNN)– Good news for people who can’t tolerate, or just don’t like dairy.
It won’t cost extra to get plant-based milk in your coffee at Dunkin’ anymore.
The restaurant chain says the new pricing will start on March 5.
A spokesperson said the policy change was guided by guest feedback.
But there is likely a lot more to the decision.
First, competitors like Starbucks, Dutch Bros, Tim Horton’s and Scooter’s already made the change.
Also, a class action lawsuit accused Dunkin’ of discriminating against people with milk allergies or lactose intolerance.
