Donut of the Day: Meijer’s Jelly Donut

Every year over Christmas break, my family travels to Ohio to see our relatives. The town we travel to is quaint and every visit provides a pleasant time. However, this Christmas, something indiscernible disturbed me. I enjoyed myself as I always do there, yet some unknown source continuously perturbed me. This sense of unease permeated the air throughout my visit until, finally, I discovered the source of my discomfort: a lack of donuts.

It suddenly occurred to me that I hadn’t had a donut for about a month, which was utterly unacceptable. It was convenient that I realized this in Ohio, though, because there I found my donut horizons expanded immensely. This town housed several establishments that sold donuts, and I ultimately decided that the grocery store, Meijer, was my best bet. After all, wasn’t it at another similar grocery store (Walmart) that I found the one donut that I adore above all the others?

The choice to go to Meijer to get my donut surely didn’t disappoint. I bought a jelly donut with a holiday theme, and it was better than I could’ve expected. At first, it tasted similar to every other jelly donut I’ve tried. However, my opinion was soon after disproven. The flavor’s intensity hit me like a freight train, and I found myself addicted to its potent taste.

Despite the greatness of the donut, there was one problem that undermined my experience: the cost. They asked approximately $3 for one donut, whereas most every other donut I’ve eaten has been under $1. In short, such a high price is highway robbery, and I cannot stand for it.

While the donut was expensive, I can’t possibly deny that it was delicious. If ever you happen to be in the vicinity of a Meijer and are in the mood to spend extravagantly, I recommend you try this donut. I can assure you that it’s flavor will not disappoint and will bring further joy into your life.
