Dunkin' Donuts to Drop the "Donuts" From Its Name

Dunkin' Donuts is done with donuts--in its name, anyway. On Tuesday, the Massachusetts-based chain announced that it will be dropping the "Donuts" from its name beginning in January, when it will be known as simply Dunkin'. While Dunkin', which boasts more than 12,500 restaurants around the world, will continue selling doughnuts, the AP reports that it's renaming itself "to reflect its increasing emphasis on coffee and other drinks" and "to stay relevant to younger customers."
