If I still smoked weed, I might understand the bougie/hipster donut craze. Well, I probably wouldn't understand it. But I'd definitely be a fan of it.
Can confirm. I still smoke. I don't understand it, but I wouldn't complain if you put one in front of me at no cost to myself.

I've had them at a few places. I don't care for 'em at all. Give me a hot KK straight off the conveyor belt any day of the week. As for Dunkin Donuts, those don't even qualify as donuts nowadays.

While I normally would agree that $2.50 is ridiculous for a donut, I looked up the place where the OP bought his overpriced "creations". Besides a collection of gluten-free donuts and special vegan donuts of the day, I found this:
Yes, please. Not much different from a muffin at that point.
(They also have a Candied Maple Bacon donut, which I don't think I'd like very much.)

Like I said fancy names with no substance
I admit I was duped by the name and ate one of those
Didn't taste any lemon
Stachios were four in number and added nothing but a gritty texture to donut
Pistachios and donuts do not mix

I had the bacon and maple donut at hogs for the cause. It was good but I couldn't eat more than 1 bite. The bread (don't know what else to call it) was way too thick. It's just way too rich for my taste.

Also, why is everyone so upset about people trying to be creative?

I grew up on DD, and they were great. Nowadays, they aren't even made fresh -- they are shipped in and thawed out. Those are some of the coldest, driest things I've ever eaten. Pitiful.

I appreciate what runningTiger brings to the board.

I think they're just fine for a one off here and there, and a different option to just the every day run of the mill kind (which are fine too)... I wouldn't be buying a dozen or more but if I was asked to for a group.. I guess it wouldn't be too bad once every blue moon...

I paid $25 for a single Cro-nut in New York. People wait in line, buy them and then stand out and sell them for 5x what they paid.
It was good, but not $25 for a single donut good.
I think I posted a pic here on my NYC review.

Ah this old argument again. Why not just shut down the entire concept of a food & drink message board? The "if you don't have anything nice to say don't say anything at all" crowd must live a boring life.

Normally I let you troll because I find it humorous, but you are spot in with this.
As for the price, I am eating 1 "craft" donut at most so 2.50 isn't a turnoff.
Very few of the donuts live up to their name, but I have had a few good ones.
