Eating Styles: Donut Edition! Sam October 13, 2011 Eating Styles 9 Comments It’s Thursday, which means it’s time for another Eating Styles poll! This week, it’s all about donuts. When I was a kid, I spent a lot of Sunday morning church services thinking about what kind of donut to get on the family trip to the bakery afterward. There are a lot of donut style choices out there – plain, frosted, sprinkled, filled – and you’ve gotta choose wisely, or end up stuck with a chunk of fried dough you don’t even really want. That’s why it’s useful to have a favorite as a fallback. These are some of the main types of donut styles: (NOTE: these are donut styles, not shapes. That’s for next week) Glazed Sprinkles Cinnamon/Sugar Powdered Filled (Jelly, Custard, Frosting) These donut styles are not mutually exclusive; they can be combined and blended to create many new types of donuts. For example, you could have a creme-filled, glazed donut with sprinkles. If you had to choose one, though, what would be your favorite? Vote below and explain your choice/flavor preference (Chocolate glaze? Rainbow sprinkles? Strawberry jelly?) in the comments.

I do have a favorite though that is not on the options. I love the Reese’s Doughnut from Sublime Doughnuts. Their donuts are heaven on earth. http://www.sublimedoughnuts.com Reply Tom October 13th, 2011 This doesn’t take into consideration that most donuts fall into two classes…yeast (or raised) donuts, versus cake donuts. Reply Not-so-famous Dave October 13th, 2011 Mmmmmmmm…Doughnuts! Custard filled, with an exhorbitant amount of gooey frosting on top, so rich that if you dont swallow coffee between bites, your eyes roll back in your head and you pass out. Reply Smokin' October 13th, 2011 My mouth is watering looking at the pictures. I wouldn’t turn any of them down! Is it doughnuts or donuts?! Reply Julien October 14th, 2011 What about the people who like to dip plain cake donuts into their coffee? I mean, that’s not my favorite style, but I do that sometimes. Reply Tonyjaguar October 14th, 2011 Apple fritters are glazed right? Reply Cafe Wayan Ubud October 14th, 2011 Powdered filled donuts form dunkin donut is my favorite. Reply Jennifer October 14th, 2011 I voted glazed, but I also like Sprinkles and powdered. I have never liked filled doughnuts and extra sugar/cinnamon don’t appeal to me. Reply KSue October 18th, 2011 I voted for jelly, but I’d really like to vote for one of each.
