wildblue 7 #1 November 18, 2002 Well, what do you think? I think it's a breakfast food with no nutritional value. I mean, who says "Man that was a good steak! I could really go for a donut for dessert!" Speaking of which, I had the pleasure of having a donut on a stick this weekend. It was actually pretty good!it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BikerBabe 0 #3 November 18, 2002 Breakfast food? Dessert? Where's the choice for: "Random J in the IPC Dive Pool"? It's honestly what I first thought of...I'm a skydiving geek, I know. Makes me think of that list "you know you're a skydiver when..." Never meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup!

christoofar 0 #4 November 18, 2002 Hmm... good topic. ¡Bienvenidos a San Antonio! We have the largest instance of diabetes in the nation. Good place to open up a Krispy Kreme. Sure enough, not to long ago Krispy Kreme opened up a brand new big store right by my house just down I-10. It's been a month now and they still have people waiting outside to get in there. These fat asses can't drag themselves to get up and change a channel, but they'll sure as hell stand in the cold waiting for a doughnut! My cousin Gregg is in a partnership that owns 6 of these franchises in Houston and he is making a KILLING! Give him 10 years and I bet he can buy up a nice tract in River Oaks in cash. ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.

Vallerina 2 #6 November 18, 2002 If donuts can be considered a breakfast food, you may as well put all junk food on that list then. Denny's should start including cake on their "Breakfast served all day" menu! I love donuts as much as anyone, but anything cakey like that has tons of fat and sugar is not a part of anyone's complete breakfast.There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
highfly 0 #7 November 18, 2002 I go for a lovely warm Pecan nut turnover for my brekkie. Get it fresh from my little kiosk on the way to work. Along with a nice hot cappucino. Best start of the day. www.myspace.com/durtymac Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And I'm not saying it's part of a "complete" breakfast. Heck, Pixie-Sticks don't have any nutritional value - that doesn't stop me from having them for dinner!

christoofar 0 #13 November 18, 2002 That is so true! Krispy Kreme is the crack-cocaine of doughnuts. I made a KILLING off buying and selling KREM when it IPO'd (now trading as KKD). It was the best performing stock of 2001. ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

novacaine 0 #15 November 18, 2002 Donuts are donuts! Yet, for some reason they appeal to people in the morning w/ coffee. I've never had a Krispy Kreme donut, but then again I've got Tim Horton donuts here Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
happythoughts 0 #16 November 18, 2002 I think you have missed an obvious reason here. People don't look at aspirin and wonder whether it is nutritional. It makes you feel better physically. For me, donuts make me feel better emotionally. I have a better morning with my tasty treat. I think they are good for you in a psychological way. The definition of "health food" is way too narrow.

JohnJug 0 #19 November 18, 2002 When I was in college I was a donut fiend. I would buy the dozen boxes from the grocery store that had three cinnamon, three powdered sugar and three plain. I wouldn't eat the plain though. They would sit there for a month, then when they were nice and hard and crunchy (never got moldy, though) my roommate would eat them. He was a little weird.

My Koledge edumacation was wurth evry penny. Actually, I was a math major myself for a while. In junior college, it was math and finance (for the parents). At the sr level, I declared as business. I found out that my construction job was paying more than my math prof and went into computers. I loved math, but I also was supporting myself. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PLFXpert 0 #24 November 18, 2002 I HATE donuts, but I like other traditional breakfast items like pancakes or waffles, HOWEVER, I CAN'T STAND anything sweet for breakfast. When I eat eggs, hashbrowns, pancakes, cereal, etc, it's ALWAYS for dinner. I eat different lunch foods/dinner foods everyday but, as weird as it sounds, I've pretty much eaten the same thing for breakfast since I was 4; two blueberry bagels (plain, no butter, no cream cheese) and my Starbucks macchiato (except when I was little, substitute coffee for OJ.) It's the only thing that really gives me a charge in the morning. Eggs and crap like that only makes me feel like shit in the morning and then I'm hungry again almost an hour later. So that's my input. Eat breakfast for dinner! Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reminds of the joke: Who is the most impressive man in a nudist colony? A: The one who can carry a cup of coffee in each hand and ten donuts at the same time.And of course: You know who the most impressive woman is? A: The one who can eat the tenth donut.
