Everyone in this thread:

There are excellent local donut or pastry shops everywhere.

Facts, I'm waiting for fall to get fresh cider donuts from the local farms and farmers market.

There's a couple local shops for more classic donuts (one has won statewide competitions) but their donuts are a bit overwhelming (v large) for any regularity and of course pricier. Worth it for myself occasionally, but too expensive to justify for coworkers.

Someone doesn't live in rural poor USA addicted to travel money and economically fed by the local McDonald's right off the highway and it shows lol

Eh, “big town” rural rust belt. We’ve got a couple local shops but we’re the largest town for about 40 miles.

Fair. Ruralish Iowa here. I have a few local myself, which I do love to visit, but when I'm visiting my small town family I'm generally lucky if there's a grocery store within 20 miles that isn't the gas station.
