Why is there a restaurant selling really unhealthy sugary foods in a HOSPITAL?

The lawful evil kind.

Cutting out the middle-men

Investors love repeated business.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 4 weeks ago

i'd imagine that it's mostly for the staff and guests? here in italy every hospital has a cafetteria. ig with america being america it's cheaper to offload that work to a franchise.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

I would assume it’s there less so for the donuts and more so for the coffee.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 weeks ago

Because doctors live on coffee

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

Because people don't go to Dunkin for donuts, they go to Dunkin for coffee. Maybe a breakfast sandwich (which as far as fast food goes, not really all that bad). Donuts are probably their lowest performing category.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago

Hmm that could be understandable

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I've been in the medical field for 38 years. Every damn meeting has garbage food. I always shake my head and wonder why there are donuts and bagels vs yogurt and fruit. Same with pizza vs salads. Really wacky if you ask me.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

Yeah it indeed is

WARNING: Dunkin Donuts can expose you to chemicals including Dihydrogen Monoxide, which is known to the State of California to cause cancer. For more information go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

why is California the only state that knows about cancer?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 weeks ago

Regulatory capture.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 4 weeks ago

Not only that, it can cause asphyxiation when inhaled and is known to have a yearly death toll easily in the ten thousands.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago) (2 children)

I'm not sure how to find it on the site 😞
I wanted to find it on the site

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Just google dihydrogen monoxide

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 weeks ago

Oh know that bit, I saw the link to the CA website and wanted to find it on there

Average american hospital

Careful, if you get bitten by a radioactive donut it turns you into a Simpson!

Actually, most cancer treatments drastically increase your chances of cancer.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 3 weeks ago

Yes, that's why if you don't have cancer it is dangerous (to the quarters it family members). If you do have cancer, you are going from having cancer to a slightly higher than average risk of a different cancer in the future. It's worth getting treated.

Grew up in New England. My friend moved to Montana, and was absolutely bullshit that there wasn't a Dunks on every corner... New England runs in Dunks, the rest of the US not so much. He felt like the "America runs in Dunks" ads we'd seen or whole lives were a lie, and so our whole lives were a lie lol

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Why on earth would you move from New England, the greatest place on earth, to fucking Montana

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 weeks ago

Lol... Fair point... It was for work though

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 weeks ago

Dude if I had an IV of Dunks cold brew, I would be soooo happy.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Oh do they sponsor those gross radioactive eggs they use for tests?

If not COULD THEY and add salt?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

No the radioactive donut globulettes bind to cancer cells and all other types of cells.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago)

That's literally why it's called creamotherapy.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 weeks ago

Should have an extra line or two for Dialysis and diabetes clinic.

Anybody reverse image search this yet?

Their food is toxic enough to cure your cancer.
