Spudnuts!

Forget about Dunkin' Donuts or even Krispy Kreme... in my humble opinion, the best donuts are Spudnuts.  As the name implies, Spudnuts are made from potato flour.  They are based on a German recipe.  From 1946 to 1968 Spudnut Shops were a national chain which had over 300 stores across the country.  The company was sold in 1968, but there are still 35 independent Spudnut stores in existence.  And one of them is located right here in Berea, Ohio.  For as long as I can remember, Spudnuts have been a Berea tradition.  The store used to be located in downtown Berea, but when "urban renewal" (or should I say "urban destruction") razed most of the historic buildings of our downtown, Spudnuts built a new store in another part of Berea.

Alejandro loves Spudnuts.  Since today is his last day here in Ohio, this morning I went out to buy some.  We had a yummy, albeit not very healthy, breakfast of Spudnuts!
