I first would like to congratulate big brands like Dunkin’ for branding sourdough sandwiches as if they have just discovered it. I really would love to see what went on in this pitch for the Dunkin’ grilled cheese. Imagine some intern saying, “It’s grilled cheese – but on sourdough!” And all the Dunkin’ executives clapping enthusiastically, because they too believe in sourdough’s magical capabilities of making any sandwich better. As much as I am a lover of sourdough as well, I couldn’t help but really feel a bit played by Dunkin’. Think of it like this: Dunkin’ watched all of us try and fail to create sourdough during the quarantine, then only to come out with their own perfect sourdough starter and not only make sourdough bread without any fail, but use it for a sandwich. I mean, what is next, are they going to come up with a really great banana bread, too? Just to rub it in our faces?
