Like any good scientist, when properly testing, there needs
to be a control item. A simple, basic
testing factor that remains the same.
For this Donut Monster, that control is the donut with chocolate icing,
more commonly known as a chocolate donut.
Donuts shops are first and foremost ranked on their ability to produce
the best chocolate donut. This keeps
standards and testing methodology the same.
Other donuts are secondary, while price is tertiary.
A secondary control donut is the glazed donut.
For variety, which is the spice of life, a sampling of the
shop’s specialty donuts are a must.
Some might wonder, what about the coffee as a testing
mechanism? And I say, what about
it? If you would like to numb your taste
buds prior to or during donut enjoyment, why not just eat a piece of wheat
bread instead? Seriously, it would be
much healthier. Okay, okay, that might
be extreme. But I am a donut purist, and
prefer to give my taste buds an unaltered opinion on donuts (hey, its why I’m a
professional).
If you need coffee to get you awake, perhaps you’ve pigged
out on one too many donuts lately. The
excitement of a wonderful, fresh donut in your mouth should be enough to get
you going in the morning. The real
excuse for coffee might be the sugar crash that might come on a hot day after
you notice the dozen donuts you ordered by yourself is nowhere to be
found.
Donuts with cream filling – leave the filling out. If you make a great donut, why put in a filler? Don’t we know that fillers in food aren’t a
good thing?
Is it donut, doughnut, both, or it depends?
