SoCalGas warned Sunday that cold weather — and the loss of its main local storage resource — may put normal electric and natural gas deliveries at risk across SoCal next week and urged residents to limit use.
Dunkin' is thinking about dumping "Donuts" from its name.
A new location of the chain in Pasadena, California, will be simply called Dunkin', a move that parent company Dunkin' Brands Inc. calls a test. The Canton, Massachusetts-based company said Thursday that a few other stores will get the one-name treatment, too.
The chain wants people to think of its stores as a destination for coffee, although it will still sell doughnuts. Dunkin' Donuts said it won't make a decision on whether it will change its name until late next year, when it expects to start redesigning stores.
Dunkin' Donuts added that the company has "been referring to ourselves simply as Dunkin’ in our advertising for more than a decade, ever since we introduced our 'America Runs on Dunkin’' campaign."
News of the test was first reported by Nation's Restaurant News.
