re: What is the GOAT Donut from your childhood?

The free ones on Main Street when the donut shop was about to close at 10am.

Donut Shop in Natchez, no other donut in the world is like that. I've tried tons but none even close. Resembles a Shipley's but worlds apart.

Mary Lee is just like every other vietnamese/chinese donut shop in any town.

I grew up eating Taster Donuts, but nothing compares to a hot glazed donut from Southern Maid in Shreveport. But you have to eat one when it's piping hot.

Krispy kreme chocolate glazed. We can stop now.

Krispy kreme is the only donut still good after it's gone cold.

Powdered cake from the old Government st location in Mobile. Sadly it is gone.

Alot of these guys are yanking and yammering over Louisiana donut shops. I've had donuts from alot of these places and compared to Krispy kreme, they're like eating sugared frickin' whitebread.

These coonasses wouldn't know a good donut if it gave them frickin' diabetes.

Anyway, that Government street location was a special place.

Yep. Tastee and McKenzie were 2 of the more popular places to get donuts when I was a kid.

In my old neighborhood in the Lower 9th Ward there was a bakery called Klotzbach's (sp?) that made a pastry called a "Sinker" and it was one of my favorite treats. That damn thing must have weighed about 6 oz. and was covered with a hard chocolate icing. Eat one of them with a glass of milk and you were anchored down.
