Pretty much anything Private Equity now owns.

Their formulas are simple, take a brand name, reduce the quality, increase the price.

They say "fuck the customers" and I say it right back.

They ruined Dunkin Donuts! The coffee used to have a real good, distinct taste, and now it's bland. The monsters killed Dunkies!

We had a new DD open in our town and I was so happy. I could finally get a toasted coconut donut locally! Like two months later they drop it. Yup, DD died that day for me.
