MASS.-WIDE - It's National Donut Day and DD "will offer guests a free donut of their choice (while supplies last) with the purchase of any beverage." They're also using the auspicious occasion to spotlight their new breakfast of champions, the Glazed Donut Breakfast Sandwich: "At only 360 calories, this unique sandwich features a fried egg and two slices of bacon between a sliced glazed donut, bringing together a classic bacon and eggs breakfast with the sweet taste of Dunkin' Donuts' beloved glazed donuts."

MARTHA'S VINEYARD - Are vegetarians starving on the Vineyard? Apparently some don't feel the love when out to eat: "Chefs hate us even more than the general population hates us. They've been trained to create magic with meat and fowl, fish, and seafood. They don't want to hear that some namby pamby customer is whining for a plate of plants." [Martha's Vineyard Patch]
