Had to make a trip to Wal*Mart last night for coffee, while I was there the wife had a list of items to pick up. She had Krispy Kreme on the list. Fortunately our local Wal*Mart doesn't carry KK any more, but the wife did say she wanted either doughnuts or Ben and Jerry's Phish Food and since they were sold out of Phish Food, as usual, I picked up a dozen assorted pastries from Wal*Mart's Bakery bins. I'm not a fan of most things Wal*Mart, their Donut Shop canned coffee being a glaring exception and the primary reason I was there, but I gave into temptation this morning with a fresh hot cup of that Donut Shop coffee and Wal*Mart has definitely picked up it's doughnut game. I've never been a fan of Krispy Kreme, those things are like frying a slice of Wonder Bread, just not good eats, I'm a Shipley Donuts kind of fellow myself, but these Wal*Mart doughnuts give Shipley a run for their money, good stuff, but I digress, don't do drugs and don't eat doughnuts if you're not in Maintenance!

If it doesn't send you on a carb bender, I'm sure a donut once in awhile won't hurt. Your Walmart must have a better baker than ours but I have to say I haven't checked out the donuts there - ever - since most grocery store donuts are crap. KK seemed to be having a successful time in Reno but then they left. We have an excellent local company called Doughboys that makes great donuts but a little too much frosting for my tastes - even when I am allowing such things. Whole Foods makes the absolute best pastries - flakey butter-based "snails" with a dob of custard in the center and a smidge of raspberries or blueberries. That would be the only non-ketogenic food that could tempt me! But I always find that when I'm well into ketosis, like now, it doesn't even bother me to talk about such deliciousness and that's one of the things I love about LCHF!

Thanks for the smiles, Phil! BTW, someone was asking about avocados on the forum the other day - you're the expert if I recall, it might be useful if you've time to take a look and add in your expertise :-)

LOL We used to get fresh KK donuts when I lived in CA and I never got what the big deal was about. Of course I was never really into donuts except from this one place in NJ that makes fresh homemade donuts that are incredible. :-)
