Tim Horton's

[bucknekkid 0]

As far as the TH vs KK donut question goes... my vote is definitely on the Timmie's side. KK donuts are just balloons of skinny, fried dough that are drowned in sugar syrup. Frozen or fresh, at least Timmie donuts are "cake" donuts. By the way, the recipe for the donuts on the US side of the border in TH are not the same recipes as the Canadian ones. The American ones have much more sugar in them, like everything else down here.

I'm with you on that one -- KK's have this weird metallic, overly sugary, mushy taste and consistency to them. yuck.

From Dictionary....Doughnut-A small ring-shaped cake made of rich, light dough that is fried in deep fat.

Note: rich, light dough, not thick, dry, chewy cake.

Should not the Timmy's puck be called a "cakenut" ?....

KarenCee -- the blueberry fritters have blueberries throughout the dough, and a shot of blueberry jammy goodness in the middle...then covered in a sugar glaze.......yummmmmy! You MUST try one while you are visiting Joel!

I used to complain that all the Tims were in the burbs, and say downtown dwellers need donuts too! Then the Tims came, and I never went. Not much of a donut eater, just a complainer.

It's a Canadian tradition.

For the record...I didn't write the bolded section And Timmy's doughnuts aren't dry -- you must have had a bad batch.

And I am sorry, KK doughnuts are not rich and light, they are mushy!

(And only us could talk about Tim Horton's for multiple pages! )

I am well aware that you didn't write the bolded sections, because I am the one who did..

As I must have had a bad batch of Timmy's little pucks, you must have encountered the same at KK.

Nice use of the English language on your last comment!...

understood, but the way it shows up on the screen, makes it seem otherwise...

lack of sleep + stroke damage to parts of the communication centres to my brain = occaisional lapses in my usage of the English language. My humbles apologies. Insert the word "Canadians" after the word "us" and you'll get my drift.

Unless you diss our beer or favourite hockey team...then it's war! Or if some poor shmuck tries to say that Canada sucks...we (some of us) may sometimes even say it ourselves, but if someone who ISN'T Canadian says it? Watch out!
