There’s a delicious mom and pop bakery near me that blows Krispy Kreme and Dunkin out of the water. My only issue is fresh donuts are so mushy. To me it feels like eating undercooked dough. But let them sit for a day or two and the bread actually requires chewing. The donut can be pulled apart and not mush in my fingers.

If I want to eat donuts immediately Dunkin serves them stale. They just sit in the open air getting to the perfect consistency.

Krispy Kreme bout at the grocery store are usually stale. I’ll check the sell by date and get the oldest ones.

Can anyone else relate?

So what you're saying is that you like stale donuts?

You're not wrong actually. Just like fresh bread or anything flour made if its hot or warm, it's very unhealthy to eat. I mean in general flour isnt good for you, but even worse when its still warm/fresh.

You should just dumpster dive to get the best quality donuts of your life.

Isn't that what a bagel is?

No, proper bagels are boiled before being baked. Proper donuts are fried. Anyone doing either differently is guilty of war crimes.

When I worked in a restaurant in high school, we would deep fry bagels then cover them in sugar. Basically a knock off bagel. Tasted exactly like one as well.

Both mushy and chewy sound awful for a donut description.

Are they vegan donuts?

A few year ago on a job, my foreman brought in doughnuts every week or two from a fancy place in town. He was vegan so the donuts were from a vegan donut shop. I found them a little doughy compared to normal donuts but they were fucking fantastic otherwise.

If I lived closer I'd be fatter.

This topic disgusts me.

 

[SteadyEvo]

Seems most like fresh hot Krispy Kreme that don’t require teeth. Just gums to mush those things down I’ve got a maple glazed I’ll leave on the counter till it’s nice and firm

 

[Raven117]

Mmm… Hard as a rock.

Great listen

"A microwaved donut doesnt taste like a fresh donut."

"You're an idiot."

 

[German Hops]

I like eating stale donuts from toes!

Putonahappyface , give. Me. That. Trigger. Reaction.

 

[kunonabi]

I can't relate on the donut front, seriously gross, but I prefer flat diet coke to a properly fizzy one. Just tastes better for some reason.

 

[ChazAshley]

I'm exactly the same but with pizza. I'll enjoy fresh pizza don't get me wrong, but there's something about day old pizza....

Did you mean to use bagel twice?!

 

[TheUsual]

Did you mean to use bagel twice?!

Lol...whoops! I did not! Meant to say when we deep fried a bagel, it was like a knock off donut. When coated with sugar after deep frying, tasted exactly like a sugar coated donut.
This wasn't a menu item. It was just something we did for ourselves in the prep area.

Not stale but Entenman's donuts in the fridge are delicious.

Fresh state fair mini donuts > fresh and hot donuts of any variety > donuts from behind the case of any establishment > bagel > biscuit > dry-ass stale donut

I need to some of those hard chocolate covered ones. I used to go town on them when i was a kid.

 

[wondermega]

Yeah there is something about having juuuuuust the tiniest dusting of mold over a donut. Also, never hurts to have an ant or 45 crawling through them, absolutely delicious.

 

[GeekyDad]

No.

 

[Go_Ly_Dow]

Donuts suck. You either feel disappointed or disgusted after having one.

1/10 would not bang.

If someone can’t leave food on the counter without bugs showing up they have a cleanliness problem.

No donut > donut
Donuts taste better without the bread part.

TL;DR: I don't like donuts.

The fact that you mentioned Entenmann's shows me you're a man of exquisite taste.

It's more of a hybrid and 100% delicious.

I won't stop pestering you until you try it!
