more donuts!

This is the worlds largets donut located in Austin, Texas. It was filmed on the show "man vs. food" and is possibly one of the largest things i have ever seen. On the right is the famous "voodoo donut shop" in new orleans, which also makes some pretty large donuts.

 
This is the famous "randy's donuts" located near los angeles california, and is the host to many of california's celebrities who want a quick snack.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
These maple frosted bacon donuts are some of what voodoo donuts has to offer. I would love to go and see the other wacky creations they have, but unfortunantly it is pretty far away.
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
My personal favorite, the "dubble bubble" donut. This is one of the most creative ones ive seen, and one of the best looking ones even though it is so simple. As you can see you can get many different donuts in exotic shapes, sizes, and colors.

Donuts are amazing

People underestimate how great donuts really are. I for one love them and wish they had them at the school. There is such a large variety that everyone can choose whichever one is there favorite. People argue which brand is their favorite, krispy kreme, dunkin donuts, or maybe even hostess. I for one think that krispy kreme is by far the best, and always will be.
 
Donuts are everywhere, even in this picture shown above. The character "Homer Simpson" from the famous show the simpsons loves donuts and that is almost like advertising for companies like dunkin donuts and krispie kreme.
 
 
Shown above is a glorious photo of an assortment of donuts from dunkin donuts. This is just one example of how they try to make donuts look appealing to the eye, with vibrant colors, designs, and shapes.
 
 
 
Shown above is my favorite type of donut, the orignal krispy kreme. In select locations there are actually krispy kreme factories that you can go to and they make fresh donuts right in front of you. This, in my opinion, is one the greatest ideas ever thought of.
 
 
 
 
 
Lastly, are the hostess brand donuts, which in my opinion are the least delectable of the others. They are usually store bought and dont come fresh. If your looking for a cheap, pretty good bag of mini donuts, this is right up your alley. I hope you have a better understanding of which type of donuts to choose from, and why i love them so much. The different types, designs, shapes, and sizes are the differences in which i also love so much about them.
