Massachusetts man sues Dunkin' Donuts after his buttered bagel didn't have butterWhen a Massachusetts man ordered a buttered bagel from Dunkin Donuts, he was given a butter substitute instead — so he sued and won a settlement. Jan Polanik, a man from the Worcester area, filed a pair of lawsuits in Suffolk Superior Court this month accusing more than 20 Dunkin' Donuts locations of deception, the Boston Globe reported. Polanik's attorney, Thomas Shapiro, said they debated whether or not to bring the lawsuits, which are seeking class-action status. But they didn't do it just to benefit Polanik. The suits claim to represent any customer who ordered butter but received a substitute spread instead between June 24, 2012, and June 24, 2016. “The main point of the lawsuit is to stop the practice of representing one thing and selling a different thing," Shapiro told the Globe. "It’s a minor thing, but at the same time, if somebody goes in and makes a point to order butter for the bagel ... they don’t want margarine or some other kind of chemical substitute.” Read more: www.metro.us/boston/massachusetts-man-sues-dunkin-donuts-after-his-buttered-bagel-didn-t-have-butter/zsJqcE---lP5OU1fPFjgoA/
