Donut question
Discussion
I know at first this might look like a General Gassing question, but rumour has it, the BiB are donut experts, so it's in here.
I bought a selection of Safeway's finest cream donuts tonight. They were to be the grand finale of a night of passion.
The eclair was stupendous, the custardy one was equally nice
Come the glorious donut moment I was horrified to discover the nicest looking super high cholestorol one had apple secreted underneath the lashings of cream.
FFS, I don't like apple. If I wanted fruit, I would have bought it. I was on a mission to ingest artery hardening amounts of cholestorol in the most compact form possible.
On the back it does mention one has apple in ... in itsy bitsy teeny writing
Devastated I was. Do you think I should complain?
What is the BiB perspective on this heinous donut offence? Indeed, do I have grounds for prosecution for malicious apple concealment?

Probably. My personal favourite is the "Dunkin' Donuts" Boston Kreme. Regular doughnut, no hole, middle filled with that yummy vanilla custard instead. Trouble is, there's not a DD within 50 miles of here! I usually have to wait till I go to the States!
(Which I appreciate is more than 50 miles, but it's better than Manchester!)

Shame you didn't get any donuts on shift today.... You could have had the offending item and had it "forensically examined" or whatever it is you Bib do with them
It's caramel donuts for me... Oh the sugar rush
Apple "doughnuts" should be long and straight, not round ... that's how you tell the difference.
And they should be filled with stewed apple with chunks in (like Mother used to make), not some puree injected through a syringe.
Raspberry doughnuts should have raspberry conserve (with small pieces of raspberry and real seeds) in them, and the raspberry should liberally coat the inside of the doughnut, not be a guey mass in one spot.
And the raspberry should NOT squirt out of the hole when you bite into the other side ... unless you want that to happen!
IMHO IE,

(got caught out with an apple one too - not happy, so had to have a Pie for my dinner to make myself feel better
) 
....In the late '80s, I was briefly on board a pipe-laying barge (DON'T ASK, OK?), I remember a man-mountain (6'8" whichever way you measured him) with a broom-handle threaded through a pile of chocolate-coated doughnuts (you couldn't see the broom handle). In his other hand he held a mug of tea the size of a "guzunder" ... and that was just "elevenses" for him! - Streaky
