It's officially the summer of new fast food items. McDonald's brought back its Snack Wraps, Burger King trotted out a BBQ Brisket Whopper, and Dunkin' released its second collab beverage with Sabrina Carpenter. But the Boston-based coffee and donut chain didn't stop there. They also released a new pastry item: the Braided Apple Pie.
Although it's only been out for a few weeks, the fruit-filled sweet treat already has quite a conversation around it—and people aren't happy.

Dunkin's Braided Apple Pie looks very similar to McDonald's cult-favorite apple pies, albeit with a fancier-looking crust that makes it look like it came out of a French patisserie. But don't be fooled by outside beauty—after all, it's what's on the inside that counts. And according to reviewers, there isn't much on the inside at all.
YouTuber Nick's Happy Place raved about the crust, but was thoroughly disappointed by the pastry's lack of filling. "That's pretty hollow in there," he said, holding the pastry up to the camera, revealing a few tiny apple chunks seated at the bottom of the pillowy crust. "You get the impression this thing is stuffed, but when you look inside of that puppy, there's a lot of room for improvement there." He added, "They really dropped the ball."
The Endorsement, another food YouTuber, echoed the same sentiment. "Where is the filling?" he pointedly asked, holding up a nearly empty half of the pastry to the camera. "The filling is just non-existent." His overall review was scathing: it wasn't sweet enough, the texture was too tough, and he just didn't care for the flavor. "It almost tastes sour," he said. "Is that even possible?"
There is one group of people who doesn't hate Dunkin's new pie: vegans. That's right—the Braided Apple Pie doesn't contain milk, eggs, or any animal-derived ingredients. VegNews and Big Box Vegan rejoiced over having a pastry they could eat at a national chain.
