It’s a single meal, relax

This is the attitude for every meal. Coming off of the huge Thanksgiving meal. Rolling into the holiday season. It’s no surprise Americans are so overweight. It’s never “just this once”. OP even says donuts are offered all the time. It’s not a treat at that point.

Welp, since you decided that this imaginary scenario happened, then yes…”Americans overweight”.

Well, it’s actually a fact. Not an imaginary scenario. In the future, people with means won’t be fat gorging on donuts.

A) Thank you for responding f-ing immediately 😂 B) It’s one meal. Only someone with an eating disorder would freak out about donuts being served once

It’s never once. Read the responses. I mean, how many donuts do you eat that this is a big deal to you that you need 3 more on a morning like this?

I rarely eat sugary breakfasts, but I’m still not understanding the absolute freak-out about OP having donuts for her guests on a single morning?

Because a lot of people don’t want that and OP is not going to bother offer anything else. It’s hardly a freak out and more of a head scratcher. Do you typically offer guests 1 option only?

I think donuts are a blue collar baby boomer thing. I don't know anyone who eats donuts in 2025.

I know you're worried about being exhausted from your Thanksgiving efforts, but please do something else for the adults (hard boiled eggs? yogurt?). We can't expect to have European or Japanese longevities if we think multiple doughuts for breakfast is a normal thing.

The OP makes it sound like they are all headed out to another family member’s house. So OP simply wanted something quick and easy with no cooking or clean up.

People freaking out over literally one morning are something else. Lots of people eat differently over the holidays and if the super high maintenance adults are such perfect clean eaters, they’ll survive until lunch if they pass on the donuts.

I decided donuts and coffee since that’s what they serve at my kids schools for years for grab and go breakfasts. It seems to be a common option. I’ve seen bagels less often for whatever reason, they just aren’t served? Maybe due to cream cheese options needed and knives to cut bagels?

With scrambled eggs, it would seem there would need to be a meat and then some people don’t like sausage, others don’t like bacon, some don’t like crispy bacon, etc… I also considered porridge but Oatmeal vs. Grits vs. Cream of Wheat, is more of a sit down meal and my children don’t all like the same one so I figure their children may be the same and that’s far too much time spent cooking multiple options ahead of a somewhat long drive. Especially if we are running behind which they tend to be.

There is lunch being served at the relatives home everyone is headed to.

OP, you know your crowd. If you think they'll be fine with donuts, get 2 dozen and call it a day.

If you think there is someone in the crowd who will freak out at the thought of donuts for breakfast, add a few ready-to-eat yogurt cups or muffins.
