If you were hoping to get a hot cocoa or a Dunkaccino at Dunkin’ Donuts, you’re out of luck. 

Salmonella concerns are forcing the coffee giant to voluntarily withdraw all hot chocolate and Dunkaccino beverages. The company says it has been made aware by one of its suppliers that salmonella contaminated some of the ingredients in the beverages.
 
Dunkin’ Donuts says none of its products have been affected. The drinks are being taken off the menu as a precaution and for the safety of its customers.
 
"We have been assured by our supplier that no Dunkin’ Donuts products have been affected," Andrew Mastrangelo, manager of public relations for Dunkin' Donuts, said in an e-mail. "However, we have made the decision to temporarily withdraw the beverages from our stores to ensure the safety of our customers. We expect to have these products back in stores shortly, and we apologize for any inconvenience this has caused our customers."
 
No word on exactly when the drinks will be back at a store near you.
