| It’s the oil they’re fried in I think. I sometimes get indigestion from deep fried donuts but I’m okay with the cake ones. |
| Same for me, OP. I love the concept, but not worth the sickness that follows. But that's healthy. Our bodies know what is good and what isn't. |
Thank you, OP from 2016. |
I know it's a thread from 2016, but from the link provided, reading further:
The term was being used incorrectly so frequently that language evolved to embrace the error. It happens. |

What was the famous donut place you sent to?
Could be something in the oil that you are allergic/sensitive to. |
| I hear summer girls every time I see this post. |

Majority of doughnuts in this area are underwhelming. They're fluorescent color nasty sugar bombs that are sickenly sweet and over indulgent.
A good doughnut needs nothing. A plain doughnut with coffee ...perfect. Can't stand the freaks of nature with 100000 grams of sugar. |
Have your tried Carlson’s donuts in Annapolis? |
| Sunflower and soybean oil do that to me. They’re becoming more commonplace in processed goods (sun chips will make me $hit myself). |
No....looks interesting. My all-time favorite donuts used to be Hoehn's Bakery in Baltimore. It was extremely saddening to hear that they closed after almost 100 years open in business. But their plain donuts were SO AMAZING. They had a lightly sweet batter with a hint of spices. Their cake batter donuts were fried to perfection that made the outside perfectly crispy. Not oily at all. During the summer, they had amazing strawberry donuts. Very light frosting. So simple. No need for the gargantuan amounts of sugar, icing, and other gimmicky toppings that so many of these modern foo foo donut places make these days and charge you a stupid amount of money for per donut. |
Same with enormity. |
| Nobody should be eating donuts unless you're working a manual labor job all day and burning 1000s of calories. Whenever I see office workers or lazy freeloading cops eating donuts I just shake my head. If you sit all day long you don't need carb and sugar bombs, ever. |
Maybe they eat them because they like them? |
I am pained by the stupidity. Why can’t we just expect correct usage? |
| Donuts are mostly hydrogenated oils. Crisco bomb. |
