Some Do, Some Donut

We went to an annual board meeting at our local library. Our zumba instructor (who would not be attending) wanted us to show our support to hopefully convince the board that our zumba class was worthy of being included in the library budget for next year. Admittedly, the best part of the meeting was the snack table filled with all kinds of sweet goodies . The following Saturday we got to zumba class late . . . our health nut instructor was in the middle of lecturing how doughnuts were bad. Someone must've informed her about the board snack table , which I am sure disgusted her. "Doughnuts are horrible for you . . . there is no 'once and a while is fine' excuse for eating even one doughnut". I went up to her after class to thank her as I always do and to say I showed up to the board meeting. I also let her know I enjoyed my doughnut . Do you support doughnuts ?

Your health nut instructor is wrong Simply wrong Donuts or doughnuts as you spelled correctly are good for us. Especially for our mental health. And a quick fix sugary boost. I could not support your health nut instructor until the view on donuts is changed Infact a 100% U turn is needed for me to be able to support her

That’s great! I’m not a donut person as an adult. They make me feel run down at this age. As a child though I loved the rare occasion my parents would bring home a donut.

I should be watching my sugar intake . You are fortunate if you don't have these doughnut/sugar cravings . . . I cave too often. And you're right, if I eat one too many, I will definitely pay for it. You just reminded me that my dad had a glazed doughnut everyday as a snack . . . I don't know if he got sick of them, but at one point I did .

I eat doughnuts in moderation due to pre-diabetes conditions I have.

I can understand that . . . I have to watch my sugar intake too. It's hard to stay away from a good doughnut though (it's ok as long as we don't over indulge).

I love donuts. Now that my husband has passed away, I don't get them anymore. He used to go to the local grocery store and buy me 1/2 dozen once and a while.

Oh I wish we lived closer so I could bring you doughnuts! It'd be nice to have doughnut and coffee time to catch up in person. Do you have a favorite doughnut?

@much2say I wish you lived closer too. I like a cake donut with maple frosting. That's my favorite....or a long john which is a long donut with cream filling and maple, of course, on top. What about you?

I totally agree with that . One won't hurt us as long we don't indulge to eat more than that .

I like an occasional donut, either an apple fritter or a filled donut (raspberry or apple filling)

I am in total support of doughnuts lol but yes I know they are completely bad for you. They're the kind of fat that you can't burn off really but they're oh so good lol. I love Krispy Kreme

I know, right? SO good - especially fresh ones. Krispy Kreme is an east coast thing, I think? It didn't come out our way until maybe the early 2000s. We love 'em too. When the kids were little, they LOVED watching the doughnuts be made there.
