What's your favorite donut

[Donovan]

Because when donuts are around ain't nobody waiting til lunch. The guy who waits gets that gross plain one.

Yeah, what's up with that plain brownish colored cake one? What kind of asshole would actually pick that one out of all the other assorted flavors.

That's the lie detector donut. It tells the boss who showed up late for work or meeting or conference room training. Dude with the shitty donut is the last guy in the building. Eleven other workers got there ahead of his lazy ass.

I like the plain ones. But they need coffee.

I guess when you've been late to work every morning for the past 5 years they start to grow on you.

The plain cake donuts are usually pretty pitiful. I think donut shops only put them in the set dozen because it's a way to clear the many day-olds off the display shelf and still make money. Cheap bastards.

Plain cake donuts aren't the worst ones, though. The cake donut with orange frosting and sprinkles is pretty much the ugly red-headed stepchild in the set dozen box for me.

I hardly ever get to eat donuts, but there are a couple that I love. The glazed buttermilk bar is my favorite.

I had a maple walnut today. It was still warm at 6am. I almost had two.

[sally]

So that means you actually showed up for work on time and didn't get stuck with the cake doughnut with sugar glazed festive spring time sprinkles?

WTF is a cake donut? If you're calling a plain donut a cake donut I'm putting a voodoo curse on your feet.

Bakers jargon. Raised and cake are the proper terms.

I drive Jacques the specialty cake guy that sells wedding cakes for 2000.00 each nuts when I walk into his shop and say "What kind of donuts do you have" to the people that work for free just to learn about cakes. He always says sarcastically "We do not make DONUTS!!"


Happy donut day Friday everyone!

Firstly, my favorite would be Krispy Kreme. Haven't had one in years, though, since they closed a lot of their stores. Also could get them in Albertson's Grocery store, but then they closed stores near me......

Cake donuts are usually denser in texture and taste yucky to me as opposed to the donuts which are made with yeast and the dough actually rises....so much better. They are lighter in texture and just have a better flavor overall. Glaze, no fruit fillings or other crap.....

Years ago, when I was flying between Miami and New York City, everyone called the sweet rolls we served "danish." they were just plain old jelly in the center sweet rolls.....Is this an East coast thing or was it a 60's thing?

It was just the beginning of changing names to make things sound more appealing, it continues today with all kinds of words now deemed "unacceptable"

Like irregardless (which the nomenclature indicates without without regard)?

Exceedingly tanned Caucasians robbing liquor stores.

[Donovan]

Inflammable is a correct usage of the word. Means The same as flammable and is generally used for more incendiary or explosive stuff. Like gas. The word for "unable to catch fire" would be nonflammable. Just chalk it up to our fun and completely unhinged English language.

[Maggot]

I brought in donuts for everyone. All plain.

[sally]

You suck.

[Maggot]

You suck.

Yeah that's right, I'm not sucking no jelly out of no donut. Sally, you really should have a donut maybe two. You could call them Fred and Marge.
