Assuming I survive a colonoscopy tomorrow and get back to actual food, Krispy Kreme sounds great.

Oh, my wife can make doughnuts (Dutch Oliebollen, delicious), and she does every New Years. That would be an imposition for her to make enough for 140 doughnut eaters every week. We don’t have a proper Hobart machine to mix the dough, either.

First world problems.

[Dr. Sivana]

Of course. I hope you understand my over the top Vanity was partially tongue in cheek, though the story is true.

[one guy in new jersey]

Wide rhetorical berth given, of course!

You think THAT's bad!? Take a look at the disappearing Donut Hole...

This is good.
Too many fat, diabetic Americans.
Now you need an electric car.
Praise our Dear Leader…

This will cripple their police force.

Yeah I posted that before I got far enough down to read that the problem with Bosa was the price.

Peanut butter is getting hard to find, too, since they had a recent recall. Very empty shelves a few days ago when I went (Friday). Two different stores, and neither one had much to offer. I didn’t have the time or the inclination to keep hunting. On another trip, I’ll try another store.

My go-to pastry is apple fritters.

A nearby doughnut shop throws one of those in to make a baker's dozen. The kids prefer doughnuts. Everyone likes the variety doughnuts present. When I can, I get: glazed glazed with chocolate glazed with colored frosting or sprinkles assorted chocolate doughnuts cake doughnuts cinnamon doughnuts Bavarian cream filled (round) crème filled long johns with and without chocolate frosting jelly (raspberry) (regular sugar, NOT powdered sugar) cruellers Other assorted (baker's choice) NO lemon doughnuts NO powdered sugar doughnuts (messy)

The best donuts I’ve had are peanut sticks at a cider mill near Olean, NY.

Rainbow Donuts North Scottsdale.
Run buy a nice Chinese woman.
Yum!

[Dr. Sivana]

See my post 46 for a call out to Rainbow Donuts. The Church and I are both in the east South Mountain area, near Tempe, so north Scottsdale is way too much of a drive. I hope they have no shortage of doughnuts for you at Rainbow. Scottsdale can be funny. They had an upscale doughnut place near Bell Road for a while that actually had $6 doughnuts. Now, mind you, the doughnuts had all sorts of things done to them and were the size of a small cake, but $6? I couldn’t just get a humble jelly doughnut. They had none. It was the kind of place that you try once, and don’t have again. They were gone six months later.
