Doughnuts are $2 and $3, and while these are fine doughnuts, fat and fluffy, these are also … flour, yeast, etc. Nevertheless, the shop was selling out within an hour of opening each day. As of Tuesday, the line, now routine, looked a lot like either a case of mass hypnosis or the latest example of a foodie-induced hysteria

Dammit you made me hungry for a donut. Now I'm gonna have to stop on my way home from work and get me some (grease, flour, sugar)! yum.

I think I'm heading over to Voodoo Doughnuts to get a apple fritter and play some pinball.

I don't think I've had a donut in years and years. I do miss them though...

Not a big Donut guy, but those in the Video look really good.

My question ( and I see it's a Tiny place ) Why wouldn't they make More ??

If they Sold 500 a day, Double Up ! Double the profit !

if i were them, at $3 a doughnut, i think i might make a few more

$3 for a donut, they better be the size of a pancake for that price. Give it a couple more weeks and the lines will be next to nothing when the hype dies down.

The same reason De Beers doesn't release twice as many diamonds from their vaults.

I eat plenty of fast food. Just not big into candy/sugar stuff. I'll have a candy bar every once in a while though. I stole 3 Oreos from the cupboard a few days back. I just try to limit it. Plus I don't like most sugar stuff so that helps...

I have to avoid all junk food or I go crazy as well.
