Today after I ate these I had a sugar seizure. Doughnuts have got to be the single worst breakfast food ever conceived! But empty calories are delicious. Hate yourself, not the doughnut.
I don't really understand all of the complexities of doughnuts so I choose Al's because going Krispy Kreme seems so corporate and unfashionable. Whenever I have a chance to stick it to the man, I'll do it.
The place was friendly and not hard to find. I got co-worker doughnuts and everyone said they were better than Krispy Kreme which I assume is true because I have not been to Krispy Kreme since like 2008. Not big on doughnuts, people but also not hot for "big doughnut".
A lot of other people seem to be focusing on the negatives of getting doughnuts at Al's so let me share my personal negative thoughts on the place:
The box they came in was super annoying. Brown instead of pink, can you imagine!?
The price was so low I couldn't even guilt trip people about how I spent tons of cash getting doughnuts for them. Way to take the fun out of giving!
The didn't have any diet doughnuts OR any baby panda doughnuts, caviar doughnuts or any other rich person type flavors that would show off my classy status. Aaaaaaaaand, I'm being sarcastic....
I guess I don't have high standards for doughnuts. However, I think a small business deserves a shot over a corporate chain. Down with big doughnut!
