Donuts donuts donuts donuts donuts
When I was a child sometimes I would be sent up the end of the road to the Spa shop for a dognut or an iced bun. Jam donuts were the best. These would be individually wrapped in paper.

No one person can plausibly eat 5 jam donuts... not even over several days as they don't keep beyond 48 hours. So I have to put a load in the bin to buy one. It really is the worst of capitalism. There is no variety and things are produced simply to sell more irrespective of whether anyone needs them. What used to be fun is now wasteful, guilt inducing and a bit of a bore...
