Remember the box?!? I remember working at the donut factory with those fellas. Small people, big hearts. Was a shame when they started employing full sized humans.

Those might've been 1st or 2nd generation. My family called them donut holes for a long time; we didn't easily adopt the munchkins.

I too take decades to adopt a rebranding. It's natural I think.

Somewhere along the line I had a hologram sticker of that picture, and when you rocked it back and forth the guys dipped the munchkins in and out of the sugar. Good memories….

I wonder if they actually made donuts in house back then. Now I think they just get frozen donuts to thaw and sell.

My first job was at DD in 1995. We did indeed make the donuts on site and I used to try to beat another gal there every Saturday or Sunday to be the donut finisher for the day. Ah, good memories.

I worked at a Dunkin’ Donuts in high school in the 80s and they did indeed make the donuts, fresh in the back

Holy crap... Are munchkins just the center of the donut that gets punched out?

Yes, that’s why the generic name is donut holes. Google donut cutter and take a look.

Damn I remember these all too well. I remember waking up as a little kid on a Sunday morning, coming out to the kitchen and seeing this box on the table and thinking to myself "YESSSS!!!!!"

It reminds of the days when things moved slower. I was alive when they still made their own donuts in store.

I remember when Dunkin Donuts actually sold donuts.

And, I remember when Dunkiin Donuts was open 24 hours.

And, I was a cop.

Damn. Like others already have said, you've unlocked a core memory.

Back in the mid-80s, one of my afterschool jobs was at a Dunkin Donuts in Lowell? Chelmsford? Whatever.

I remember that box fondly.
