In a recent news article, the Modesto Bee posted an article "Mr. T's ranks among 15 best doughnut shops in nation" http://www.modbee.com/news/article154434579.html Wow!
Business Insider listed Mr. T's as 13th out of 50 doughnut shops in the United States. Now I know doughnut do not have much of a nutritional value. They have approximately 340 calories with 200 calories as fat (61%). The Food and Drug Administration recommends 64 grams of fat per day so I guess if you eat a doughnut, don't eat anything else with fat the rest of the day. But just reading the article, I was reminded how yummy their doughnuts are. Mr. T's is the only place I would purchase doughnuts for special times. I think the other reason that draws me to this doughnut shop is the local atmosphere. It's neat to come into the shop which is one of a kind, the customers know you know it's all good. The staff is friendly and efficient getting my order and getting me out the door quickly. I enjoy the doughnuts but also enjoy supporting hardworking people. So I can eat a doughnut once in a while---moderation is key. Now if I buy one I usually cut it in half...
