Just a little reminder.

Pisses me off to no end that they use the Canadian identity for marketing when they sold out decades ago.

Also their coffee and food has been shit for a long time too, coincidence? I think not.

It's a fried good, not a baked good. Bread comes out of the freezer ALMOST as good as it went in, but it's never going to be fresh baked bread again. With fried goods, its even more pronounced. Like when you get french fries, you get a narrow window of like ten minutes before they are stale. And they're still good, but they're different. A freshly fried donut and a day old donut, no matter how it was made and preserved, are not the same thing.

That's a fair assessment. Now that you mention it, we don't actually have many frozen donuts at my location. I wonder what they do to freeze the tim horton donuts, or what could be done to make them just as good despite being frozen. Maybe thawing a "blank" and cremeing and icing it freshly? Almost makes me want to experiment at home for freezing methods.
