Scone if not many extra calories available as I rate as maximum fill up for the calories (cheese more so than raisin, though I buy raisin more often)! Bagel if I wanted more food and had the budget for it. Donut if I had already eaten my bagel, or my soup, or was really not conserving calories... cause... just one donut?!?!?!
I lived in Utah for a few years. What they call a scone in Utah isn't what they call it anywhere else. It's basically an elephant ear or frybread. And if that's not enough grease and sugar for you, it comes with honey-butter on top.
Sounds like you can't decide, and it depends. But if I can dissect this a bit, you'd opt for the doughnut IF YOU ALREADY HAD THE BAGEL, which means, of course, that you opted for the bagel FIRST. Right on :drinker:
Was it serendipity? I don't care. If it was, I'm glad I put this up.
That bagel shop I love? The one that was closed two decades and opened back up in November? The one that didn't have cucumbers? Yeah. They didn't have CUCUMBERS. Until today....
It's a tough decision for me because of all the carby goodness but I think the bagel would win. I love donuts but once it's gone, you barely realize you've eaten anyrhing. At least a bagel stays with you.
This question is stressing me out....I can’t decide.
A gooood cakey donut is so good. But the Dunkin’ variety, pass.
But....a yummy fresh chewy bagel is EVERYTHING,
Can’t choose
Having figured out I might be Celiac a few years ago, I miss donuts a hell of a lot more. It's not even close. Yeah, I know they have GF donuts but they are not the same. Now, donut or Belgium Waffle (a real one with the beads of sugar), that might be a huge decision.
I make a lot of sushi on a regular basis. Nothing beats a good NY bagel, cream cheese, raw sushi grade (yes raw) Salmon, thinly sliced avacado, thinly sliced cucumber, Pickled Diakon radish, and some thin jullienne carrot. (think a twist on Banh Mi)
Bagel each and every time. Bagel can easily be made into something sweet that will resemble a doughnut.
Meh. A bagel that can resemble a doughnut (other than visually, which I'm assuming is not what you meant) is not a good bagel. A doughnut should not be chewy. A bagel should not be pillowy soft.

I'm gonna go with a no on that. A good bagel is very different from a good doughnut. Yes they both have flour, water, and some doughnuts also have yeast, but that's because they're both bread products. That's more or less where the similarities end. You could say the same about cake or the aforementioned fry bread.

My lucky day!

An everything bagel smeared in plenty of cream cheese topped with ham and pickles would be an awesome lunch, but would be over 300 cals...
