Fave Do-Nut
 
I relate, tragically, to Homer Simpson. However, my fave do-nut is NOT a pink-frosted nightmare but an elegant Plain.

What say you, the great unwashed? WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE DOUGHNUT?

If it's fresh, I like a glazed. If it's not so fresh, I like a creme filled with frosting.

There is nothing in the world like the fresh, hot, plain Krispy Kreme.

All KK locations in Philadelphia have closed. Nearest one is now 80 miles away.

Boston Creme. Or whatever a store happens to call chocolate iced, custard filled donuts (not whipped cream, custard).

HOLY SHIT!!! Say it ain't so. They always seemed to do a good business. Oh, well. I'd also rate them tops. Dunkin Donuts would be second, and I'll eat the ones at Wawa if I haven't had breakfast yet.

Buttermilk, plain (old fashioned), french cruller, chocolate cream filled. In that order.

DnD is less than a mile away, I'm well researched in this subject.

In KC, we have Lamar's Donuts, which offers an artery-clogging, diabetic shock-inducing 8" long, 2.5" wide Longjohn, frosting filled and smothered in chocolate.

See center bar at bottom of linked page for a very slight idea of this monster.

It is beyond decadence. It is the donut that must surely be served at the feet of the Gods of Olympus.

Maple frosted. Dunkin Donuts being my "supplier."

Et tu? Or maybe three. :redface:

Don't like the chains, bakery donuts are where it's at. Maria's in Ridley and KYJ's in Chester, 'round here.
Do yourself a favor and search out local bakery shops, it's worth the effort.:yum:

Wow. Life imitating art.:p

Did you get the idea from today's paper?

Can't get past that KK "Hot now" sign when it is lit. But, if the glazed aren't fresh, the blueberry filled with powdered sugar is worth the layer of white dust on my clothes and car seats.

Huh. KC is where I had my first KK ~7 yrs ago, now they are all over the place here and closing out east. Time to sell my stock eh?

I third the custard filled chocolate frosted bismark, (as they are called around here). Ties with the harder to find custard filled chocolate frosted long john. I do not like the 'cake' donuts. Even though they actually have less fat, they taste to me like they have more calories, plus they fill you up faster, so you can't have as many. I HATE sprinkles, little vile colored mouse turds.

I actually really enjoy Hy-Vee donuts--and they usually have a huge selection if you get there in time.

You're joking, right? The time to sell was two and a half years ago, before it lost 80% of its value.

KKD over 3 years

My absolute favorite: DD Toasted Coconut. But it's been at least a whole year since I've had a donut, so I'd have no problem snarfing down a pink-frosted one if it were in front of me right now.
