They never get stale, that's the beauty of it.

Re: Word of Today

ha haaa. I was surprised to see so many Dunkin' Donuts shops suddenly pop up in CH. The ones here don't seem as good as the ones in the US, though. They told me most of their donuts are made in the US and then shipped here, so maybe that's why.

That's the motivating factor for me. You see, if something as frail and beautiful as a glazed donut doesn't get stale, then it must be good for my body. No doubt about it!
