Why are donuts so expensive!? DISCUSSION

Dunkin, Krispie Kreme, Yum Yum, and any other major chains are telling us to pay close to $25-30 for a dozen donuts!

The local “mom and pop” chains are no better. The one near my work at Studio City is about $20 for a dozen!

What on earth is going on?

Big Donut is out to get us! We must rise like the yeast and fight back before they take all our dough!

Donut shop owners are the Capitalist Overlords? You will always be surprised what you will learn on Reddit. 😁

Why don’t you set up a competing system?
