depending on brand/flavor, just learned there are between 50 and 100 calories in a SINGLE DONUT HOLE! Who eats just one or two? Jeez. No wonder...

    Sometimes I just have to sit back and eat an entire box, get it out of my system and move on

    The ones that I like from Tim Hortons have about 70 cals each. When I occasionally drive through for a treat and ask for coffee and 2 timbits (one for me, one to share with my son) they always ask "2 boxes?" and I have to say "no, just 2." I'm pretty sure they think I'm weird. I can't be trusted with an entire box.

    The ones I get are around 350 calories for six holes. Its easy for me to fit that into my goals.

    Eating entire boxes of donuts for a single meal on a regular basis is what made me obese, not half a bag of holes.

    50-100 calories for a small piece of cake covered in sugar doesn't sound too bad.... and fitting 3-4 into a day doesn't seem unrealistic to me.

    Shrug.

    Although donut holes are delicious, that is part of why I just eat the whole (blueberry cake) donut. Less than 200 calories. :)

    Same goes for English delicacy 'toad in the hole' ... the toads are really low cal if you cut the croak out but the hole spoils everything!

    considering a regular doughnut is around 250-350 calories- why are you at all surprised?

    Not that it is the same as a "real" doughnut but I bought a doughnut pan and bake my own. I mainly did it because my 2 year old loves donuts but the donuts I have made so far come in under 170 (most are more around 125).
