    I agree! Mary's are the best I have ever had!

    A donut is never torture unless stale or Shipleys.

    The best donuts are Tim Horton's donuts.

    All the others are ... just ... simply ... not Tim Horton's donuts.


    Thankfully, I'm half a world away from Tim Horton's donuts in Australia where they do not do donuts at all well. The donuts here aren't even remotely tempting.

    really? Tim horton's in Canada's donuts are horrible. They used to be good when they baked them in store but now they are frozen which sucks

    Stale never stopped me.

    So, I'm guessing this does not include cauliflower doughnuts :trollface:

    KILL IT WITH FIRE!!!!

    No, just no.

    I mean yeah, carrot cake is fine. As is courgette cake. And I make a rather good beetroot and chocolate cake (if I say so myself). But cauliflower donuts just sound wrong.

    I've never been huge on donuts, but occasionally I get a nostalgic craving...my dad used to like to take me to the donut shop when I was a kid for some father/son time...so every once in awhile I take my boys. We like Rebel Donut which is local.

    You know, I made my parents tamales with a cauliflower "masa" because my dad wants a lower carb count. I've been tempted to make some for myself because, while they aren't the real thing, they smelled pretty good.

    A cauliflower donut is just a complete abomination

    I am with the Peace love and little Donuts of Pittsburgh crowd. We have one a block from where I work and the smell of fresh baked donuts as I pass by at 6:30 am is always amazing. And they're little so stopping on for just one is a nice treat and not terrible for calories depending on what toppings you chose. :)

    Similar to donuts, no visit to Oahu is complete without stopping by Leonard's Bakery for their malasadas.

    We had malasadas from Tex Drive In (something like that?) on the Big Island when I did a bike trip there (perfect accompaniment to a century ride). So good.

    Krispy Kreme is inedible. Why anyone would eat those disgusting things is beyond me.

    The best places are always the unassuming mom and pop shops in a strip mall. My fave donut is chocolate glaze with custard filling. Custard has to be cold. There was a place down the road from me in Burbank called Donut Prince, which is my all time fave donut shop. Too bad I've moved away... Haven't found a great new place in San Diego yet

    Not exactly in San Diego, but try Peterson's Donut Corner in Escondido sometime. We used to call it "The Mutant Shop" because the donuts are absolutely huge (mutants).

    Hitting this place Saturday morning first thing, thanks for the heads up.

    I thought those donut holes were some new creation at first, like a donut hole cluster. XD
