Apparently, Ben Affleck falls into the latter group. In a recent TikTok video featuring Ben Affleck and Matt Damon attempting to answer questions about each other, Damon was asked if he knew Affleck&#8217;s go-to order from coffee giant Dunkin&#8217; (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/lifestyle\/where-name-dunkin-came-002514967.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:formerly Dunkin&#039; Donuts;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">formerly Dunkin&#8217; Donuts<\/a>), and he hit the nail on the head.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Without much hesitation, he answered, &#8220;Well, it definitely used to be a large regular.&#8221; Affleck confirmed that is indeed what he&#8217;s craving when he needs a boost of caffeine from the chain he was famously featured in during a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/dunkin-ran-extra-mile-2025-003814673.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:2025 Super Bowl commercial;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">2025 Super Bowl commercial<\/a>. He noted that he will switch things up between iced and hot depending on the weather, but that&#8217;s about as adventurous as he gets with his order from Dunkin&#8217;. However, if you don&#8217;t live on the East Coast, you might not realize a &#8220;regular&#8221; has a bit more going on than the same order in another region.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/most-tragic-things-guy-fieris-144018206.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:The Most Tragic Things About Guy Fieri&#039;s Life;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">The Most Tragic Things About Guy Fieri&#8217;s Life<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Ben Affleck&#8217;s regular coffee isn&#8217;t without frills<img alt=\"Ben Affleck talking on cellphone and holding a takeout tray with Dunkin' coffee\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"780\" height=\"438\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/0e85c7ff38d8ffcfc5846e61ce74bacc.jpeg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Ben Affleck talking on cellphone and holding a takeout tray with Dunkin&#8217; coffee &#8211; Bellocqimages\/bauer-griffin\/Getty Images<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">To some, ordering a &#8220;regular&#8221; coffee implies they want it black \u2013- no cream, no sugar, just an unadulterated cup of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/lifestyle\/arabica-vs-robusta-difference-between-232546073.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:Arabica coffee;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Arabica coffee<\/a>. However, if you want a black coffee in New England, you have to specifically state &#8220;black coffee&#8221; (and then sit there while a barista stares at you like you have lettuce coming out of your ears). Throughout much of the East Coast, a &#8220;regular&#8221; means a cup of joe with cream and sugar. With his strong ties to Boston, Ben Affleck may not be interested in any of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/lifestyle\/articles\/review-dunkin-valentines-day-drinks-205108692.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:Dunkin&#039;s latest LTO&#039;s;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Dunkin&#8217;s latest LTO&#8217;s<\/a>, but he does still like his coffee sweetened.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">It&#8217;s no surprise that Matt Damon is intimately familiar with Affleck&#8217;s Dunkin&#8217; staple. The two lived together for some time before either truly made their mark in the movie industry with &#8220;Good Will Hunting&#8221; in 1997. Writing an Oscar-winning screenplay is surely thirsty work, and the two were likely running on Dunkin&#8217; throughout the process.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">For more food and drink goodness, <a href=\"https:\/\/subscribe.thetakeout.com\/newsletter-syndicated?utm_source=yahoo&amp;utm_medium=thetakeout-NL-feed\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:join The Takeout&#039;s newsletter;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">join The Takeout&#8217;s newsletter<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/preferences\/source?q=thetakeout.com\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:add us as a preferred search source;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">add us as a preferred search source<\/a>.
