Patriotic Canadians go to Tim Horton’s. They can get a dispensation to go to Robins ONLY if the line at Timmy’s is too long.

I think it was liberal aging druggie hipster Anthony Bourdain that somehow managed to point out that people coming out with outrageously priced hamburgers just encourage the local neighbor restaurants to jack up the price with their burgers by a dollar or two, after seeing what others get away with charging.

Look for your local bakery to follow suit.

I don’t think there is a Robins in Calgary. Truth be known, I prefer McDonald’s coffee, it tastes as good or better than Timmy’s AND they offer free refills. The only reason I’ve recently been going to Timmy’s is because of latest ‘rrrrrrrroll up the rrrrrrrrim’ contest. I am a Canadian HERETIC, I guess!

That doughnut looks gross.

For a hundred bucks, I will let you watch me eat a Krispy Kreme doughnut naked.

If I was rich enough to afford a $100 doughnut I still wouldn't buy one.Maybe a $100 piece of prime rib...hold the gold shavings.

I like it when high quality items are priced high. It drives up the price of other similar goods.

This is good for the economy.

Well...ok.

I use 23k gold leaf for my calligraphy and illumination work. It is genuine gold but it’s rolled extremely thin (to the point of translucency when held up to a light). right now the going rate is $57.95 for 25 3.5” x 3.5” sheets or $2.32 x sheet so yes the doughnut maker can say he’s using real gold but that’s quite a mark up for a $100 doughnut.

No taste...hence it’s use in fillings.

That's tempting. You sound senuous.
I looked at your homepage.
