Krispy Kreme are wonderful! They’re especially good when they’re hot and the glaze is still warm.

Krispy Kreme. Dunkin’ Donuts. Top Pot. Pike Place mini-doughnut stand.

Donut Plant. VooDoo Doughnut. Mulberry St. NYC zeppole….

I can’t say there’s really a doughnut I’ve ever encountered that I wouldn’t glady eat again. When it comes to doughnuts I’m all for diversity.

The problem with the blind taste test is getting the doughnuts to the taste test. If I was to get them I would have to taste test several.

I love the crullers that Dunkin Donuts makes. Whenever I’m back East I try to get one. And not all DDs sell the same kind. Boston’s are long, and not made with choux pastry. The Long Island ones were right. There is a donut shop on 152nd in Burien (a few blocks west of 1st Ave) that makes them the right way. I go there when I need a fix.

As a New Yorker, I’ve come to accept that no bagel I eat here will measure up to what I expect in a bagel. There are certainly passable, acceptable bagels, but nothing that really screams “great bagel” to me. So I eat them and have learned to live with it.

I would, however, kill for a good bialy.

Oh my- donuts are my favorite food after icecream. I love Dunkin Donuts- why can’t there be one within 100 miles of this city??? The BEST donut I ever ate was from a little donut shop on Eastlake. I believe it is where Sitka and SPruce is now. ANyways, their donuts were perfect- I’m sad they closed up shop.

I like QFC’s maple and chocolate bars. I tried the Original Bakery just yesterday- the creme filled chocolate one was good, but I didn’t try the maple bar because there wasn’t enough frosting on it to my liking. I love frosting! I think that is why I like QFC’s donuts.

Oh, I do believe there is a big difference in donut preferences too- cake vs the lighter, airier kind. It’s like thin-crust vs. Chicago deep dish pizza.

I’m getting hungry… now that I’m thinking about donuts, a nice beignet would be wonderful. Some of my earliest memories involve enjoying warm beignets in New Orleans. Yum!

i may be compelled to get dressed and go in search of pastry:(

celeste17 is right.. who could we trust to actually deliver the donuts to a blind taste test?
