Best donuts you've ever eaten while trucking.

Krispy Kreme is not a donut, it is a sweet roll. And not a very good sweet roll. Might as well just eat a scoop of lard.
I have always liked plain Dunkin Donuts glazed.

 

Ive actually have been pulled over after having bought a box of them and pizza at the Sbarro or some other place up in PA a time or two.

Fine = one or two doughnuts and a thermos of coffee in a cup.

They still need to rethink stepping out onto the travel lane at the bottom of a downgrade in front of me. It's not smart.

 

i don't typically seek out donuts. i may however buy a box of Entenmann's if i really wanna pig out, but that is also rare.

what i will buy is those apple or other fruit filled pastries.

 

A little doughnut history for you all.

Back in the 1920's, a lady with the last name of Renison opened a doughnut shop in Paducah Kentucky called Crispie Creme. It was very popular with locals, but Mrs Renison wasn't happy with the town and wanted to move closer to family in Portsmouth Ohio. So she sold her doughnut business in Paducah and they kept the same recipes and changed the name to Krispy Kreme so there wouldn't be a conflict with the original name. They moved that company to I believe North Carolina, and the rest is doughnut history.

I grew up in Portsmouth Ohio in the 60's and 70's. Crispy Creme made the greatest doughnuts in the world as far as I was concerned. My high school girlfriend was Mrs Renison's grand daughter. The doughnut shop is still there today, and they still use the same original recipe.

 

We used to go downtown and get our load of papers for Sunday. You could get them on the dock of the newspaper with your route manager. This way we could knock out the delivery and sleep in. On the way back to our route there was a Krispy Kreme. We would stop in and scarf them down. They were fresh off the roller. No breaks in the glaze. Add coffee and it was heaven.

 

Nashville.

 

It's why pizza is the number one adult food. They load the crust with sugar.

 

Duck donuts. Not sure if truck accessible but worth a park and walk. Make sure you get the ones with bacon on them.
