The cashier blamed the distributor for the switch to kosher donuts. Royal is in and Krispy Kreme is out at the On the Run convenience store. I’ll withhold my judgment until my taster gets to work, but these bad boys look more rugged than the Krispies.

As of today, I’m officially tired of holiday decorations on food. All sprinkles taste the same! What color are they going to put on the doughnuts for New Year’s, I wonder?

The gas station store is an anomaly in Brooklyn. Mobil On The Run convenience store on Caton Avenue (catty-corner to the cemetery) has the further distinction of being large and clean, and having the occasional thing you need. (I don’t mean Krispy Kremes.) The store is a great setting for snapshots, too, because the fluorescent lights, so unflattering to human skin all 24 hours a day they shine, make the taquitos, air freshners, and chips, incredibly photogenic. You almost want to buy them.
