A wise man once said, "Mmmmm, donuts," and I'm not sure truer words have ever been spoken. Donuts have been a breakfast staple for decades upon decades with bakeries all around the world coming up with new and creative twists to separate their version from the others. There are round donuts and twisted donuts. Some have jelly or cream filling in the middle, while others are covered with icing and topped with crushed nuts, sprinkles, sugar crystals, or shaved coconut. No matter what you like, there is a donut out there somewhere for you. But is your favorite the same as the majority of other Indiana residents?

However, that's not the case here. Blueberry donuts are my favorite no matter what bakery I get them from. Of course, some are better than others, but when all is said and done, I'm still eating a donut, and that's always a win.
