Health Factor
Dunkin Donuts Hash Browns has 180 calories, which is relatively low compared to some other items on many fast food breakfast menus. I was surprised to find out that the amount of fat contained in Dunkin Donuts Hash Browns is satisfactory. There is five percent of saturated fat in a serving of this menu item. This may not be a good factor for many women and men who purchase and eat fast food for breakfast. I tried Dunkin Donuts Hash Browns once and made a larger purchase on another day.
It is nice to know that this fast food menu selection contains zero cholesterol. However, Dunkin Donuts Hash Browns do have a significant amount of sodium. Although this menu option has some Vitamin C, Vitamin A, Protein and Iron, it is not enough to warrant eating these Hash Browns for the purpose of their nutritional value. This Dunkin Donuts selection lacks in the area of nutrition. Still, it is not too unhealthy that you have to steer clear of the Hash Browns.
Quality
Although Dunkin Donuts lists the availability of its Hash Browns in a 9 count box, you may receive more depending on where you order them from. The second time I had Dunkin Donuts Hash Browns, I would estimate that more than nine of them were in the container. However, it could be that I was not paying much attention to the quantity while enjoying these Hash Browns. They are satisfactory, even with nine small circular toasted potatoes. This amount should be enough for adults and children who order fast food from Dunkin Donuts.
Although Dunkin Donuts Hash Browns are marketed as oven-toasted food products, they can be very soft. Much like all fast food chain stores, the quality of these Hash Browns depends on who has prepared them for you. The first Dunkin Donuts Hash Browns that I had were so soft that I did not believe they were oven “toasted” at all. Instead, they felt and tasted like roasted potatoes. The second order of Dunkin Donuts Hash Browns that I had were much crispier and lived up to the “oven toasted” claim made by this fast food store. The Hash Browns are sized adequately and come in a convenient container that you can carry around.
Price
Dunkin Donuts Hash Browns cost around $1.29, which is not a bad price. I know of one popular fast food restaurant that charges nearly the same price for just one hash brown Pattie. Therefore, the Dunkin Donuts price is relatively inexpensive. The cost of these Hash Browns make it easy go get a quick breakfast even if you do not have enough money for a value meal. Since the price for their donuts have increased, two of them can cost nearly $2. This makes Dunkin Donuts Hash Browns a nice alternative option.
Taste Test
Dunkin Donuts Hash Browns have more flavor than the same type of food from other fast food stores. They are golden brown with seasonings that set them apart from the average Hash Browns that many women and men have become used to. The seasonings are easy to view and this fast food menu selection is not too salty. However, it can be greasy at times and require you to have napkins nearby for your hands. That is a small price to pay for such a tasty menu option from this fast food store. I have eaten them plain, but they are just as satisfying with tomato ketchup.
Verdict
The wide availability of Dunkin Donuts Hash Browns makes this fast food menu item stand out from its competitors. You can get these Hash Browns all day long, not only in the morning. This is something that I can appreciate, especially at times when Hash Browns may be a good idea for one quick lunch or afternoon snack. Dunkin Donuts has a winner with this product. These Hash Browns can fill you up and help to curb hunger without ripping you off financially. Dunkin Donuts Hash Browns are definitely worth trying at any time of the day.
