I treated them like wounded baby birds when they were handed to me.<\/p>\n<p>Those squished mounds you see above feature Black Forest ham, a honey mustard spread, and Swiss cheese between smashed King&#8217;s Hawaiian Pretzel Slider Buns. The two warm sandwiches came out of their sleeve like conjoined twins fused at the cheese. I thought their whole smooshy presentation gave off a school lunch-ish vibe. I don&#8217;t know why I felt that way because it&#8217;s been a while since I entered a school cafeteria.<\/p>\n<p>While that sounds awful, after surgically separating the conjoined mini sandwiches with a butter knife, the first one I grabbed had an acrid aroma and flavor that reminded me of burnt food. However, the bun didn&#8217;t look burnt in any way. Not every bite I took from the slider tasted that way, and with the other one, I didn&#8217;t experience any burnt smells or flavors, which is a little weird since they were prepared simultaneously.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/dunkinhwps2.jpeg?resize=600%2C600&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-68593\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/dunkinhwps2.jpeg?resize=600%2C600&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/dunkinhwps2.jpeg?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/dunkinhwps2.jpeg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/dunkinhwps2.jpeg?resize=768%2C768&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/dunkinhwps2.jpeg?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Despite their flatness, they tasted quite meaty. I guess when a slice of ham is folded over onto itself twice, there would be a decent ham wall. Because of this, the sliders have an exporksion of flavor with a hint of honey mustard and even less cheesiness. From what I could taste, the honey mustard was applied lightly to my order, which was disappointing since I love the condiment.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/dunkinhwps3.jpeg?resize=600%2C800&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-68594\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/dunkinhwps3.jpeg?resize=600%2C800&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/dunkinhwps3.jpeg?resize=225%2C300&amp;ssl=1 225w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/dunkinhwps3.jpeg?resize=768%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/dunkinhwps3.jpeg?resize=1152%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 1152w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/dunkinhwps3.jpeg?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>As for the buns, the salt crystals on them provided occasional big bursts of saltiness, but I wouldn&#8217;t say the buns had a pretzel taste to them. I don&#8217;t know if that initial acrid flavor I noticed was supposed to be it, but I hope not. However, while they lacked pretzel-ness, the buns were sweet enough that you could convince me that these were regular King&#8217;s Hawaiian sweet rolls.<\/p>\n<p>Apart from the initial flavor twist, Dunkin&#8217;s Ham &#038; Swiss Pretzel Sliders were just average. Since one of the sliders had an off taste while the other didn&#8217;t, I suspect I received a subpar slider. Even with the one that tasted normal, nothing about it excited my taste buds.
