Ben Affleck’s Favorite Dunkin’ Order Is So Relatable

Ben Affleck has room in his heart for two things: women named Jennifer and Dunkin. As we’re a food focused site, we’ll be talking about the latter. Affleck’s love for Dunkin’ is well documented across the years. It’s only fitting that this has led to many partnerships between the two (a justified use of celebrity status). That got us thinking, though. What is Ben Affleck’s go-to order?

His Exact Order ― And Sometimes Splenda

He’s just a relatable guy! Ahead of Affleck’s 2023 Super Bowl commercial with Dunkin’, he gave the exclusive scoop to PEOPLE. His signature order is “an iced coffee with milk and two sugars, sometimes Splenda.” That’s showing a lot of restraint considering the coffee chain is known for its wondrous drinks (sometimes served up in monstrous sizes like their 48-oz buckets). Ben Affleck doesn’t need any gaudy drink, no! He’s a man of the people. A real average Joe.

Affleck’s Connection To Dunkin’

I really have to hand it to Affleck. He’s made a hell of a move turning his history as a Dunkin’ customer into a real partnership. It’s turned into such a thing that he’s worried it’s gone a little too far. “I think people already sort of think that I work for Dunkin’,” he told PEOPLE in a 2023 interview.

Afleck said he favors simple orders in the same interview. “If I like something, I have the same thing every day, same breakfast, same coffee, same deal. Like, if I know that if I like an order at a restaurant, I’ll go back and just order that every time.”

Honestly, We Can Relate

When you think about it, Affleck’s ordering philosophy makes a lot of sense. I certainly want to try new foods, but it’s hard to resist the familiar comfort of something you already know is going to be good. It’s hard to always gamble on something new. Sometimes you really just want an old reliable. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that.

And Affleck’s collab with Dunkin’ is inspirational, honestly. Turning something you’ve loved your entire life into something that pays well? I can only hope that one day my love for food gets me a partnership with Oreo to the level that Affleck has achieved with this chain. I’d even humbly settle for less. That’s right, I’m selflessly preemptively turning down a Super Bowl ad with Oreo. Please hold your applause. For now, I guess I’ll walk down to the Dunkin’ a few blocks away and daydream about my sales pitch to Oreo―all while I try out Ben Affleck’s Dunkin’ order.
