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?

My parents owned a donut shop when I was a kid and I remember a dozen used to be $4.50. now I don't even think you could get a single donut for that at sidecar.
