I buy Chalita's, but they're really more like cake than donuts...

About a month ago, I bought a frozen box of Trader Joe's mini raspberry jelly donuts. You microwave them -- they're 50 calories each, delicious, the size of "holes."

So far I've only had 1 or 2 at a time on like, two occasions, but it would be nice to have 4 of them (200 calories) for breakfast one morning. Would have to be a day when I slept in and was going to eat lunch soon anyway -- because obviously I need my nutritious-calorie breakfasts to take me into most days.

Still, they are yummy and it's just nice to know that you can have some form of almost anything in calorie control -- if you want to, if you can handle it, etc. And these are a good form of donuts. Tiny, but you know. Taste great. Psychologically, I find it ... reassuring or something, to know I can have donuts. :-)

I like what you call doughnuts. ;) That will stop one from munching down on them. :lol:

From what I hear Trader Joe's has some good finds. I'll have to check those jelly donuts out. Mmm. What kills me is that my favorite donuts have almost a whole day's worth of calories. And the sugar content? I'm afraid to ask.
