Dunkin’ x Goldfish Pumpkin Spice Grahams Are Back and We Tried Them

Back in 2022, Goldfish partnered with Dunkin’ on cute little graham fishies based on Dunkin’ pumpkin spice donuts. These aquatic cookie-crackers have returned to shelves a few times since then—though they took 2024 off so we’d all forgive them for coming back a little early this year. Pepperidge Farms was nice enough to send over a bag of these seasonal cheese-free Goldfish; let’s find out whether pumpkin spice has any place in the fish tank.

Dunkin’ Pumpkin Spice Goldfish Grahams Review

Walmart

Pros: I’m a big fan of Dunkin’s pumpkin donuts (specifically their Munchkins, the superior way to eat donuts). While I can’t speak to these being uniquely accurate to Dunkin’s pumpkin, this is definitely a pleasant pumpkin spice graham cracker snack. I cracked these open at a party and the scent alone had a few people meandering over with their hands out. This is a solid start to what I’m sure will be many pumpkin spice reviews I write this year.

Cons: I’m just not sure these needed to be Goldfish, y’all. Every handful, I had to remind myself these wouldn’t be cheesy like the thousands of Goldfish I’ve eaten before. And maybe I’ve got a little too much nostalgic brand loyalty, but why did we let Goldfish step into Teddy Grahams’ turf like this? It’s not like Teddy’s out here making cheese snacks. Let’s all stay in our respective lanes and no one gets hurt.

What’s next from Pepperidge Farms?

I’m very excited for this fall’s lineup from Pepperidge Farms. Of course, we’ll see the return of Pumpkin Spice Milano cookies—easily one of the classiest pumpkin spice launches every year. But they aren’t stopping there; we’ll see a brand new chai latte flavored Milano cookie hit shelves as well. As a big fan of Milano’s recent foray into beverage-flavored cookies, I can’t wait for this one. Finally, we’ll see a pumpkin cheesecake cookie from Pepperidge Farms—simple, but you know it’ll be good. I’ll be reviewing as many of these fall cookies for Sporked as I can, ASAP; keep an eye out for updates!
