Poll: Muffins or Donuts?

[Mrs. Edge]

I read the other day that places like Tim Hortons sell way more muffins to Canadians, wheras Americans eat more donuts. Is this true? What would you prefer, all things being equal?

 

[*Ally*]

i'm american, and i prefer muffins.

American

 

[HelloAngel]

I really *try* to stay away from baked goods, but I believe I'd take a donut over a muffin.

 

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

I like blueberry muffins, thanks.

Bagels.
But I have a fondness for 'tastey' hot muffins.

Thank You-

Calluna-
If you ever had a son, he would be considered- "a son of a biscuit-eater"..you understand this, right?

Love-

I "prefer" doughnuts (Krispy Kreme, a Southern contribution), but I like muffins, and feel less guilty when I eat them; those cranberry-orange muffins that some delis bake are quite tasty.

But if you throw biscuits into the fray, I prefer them, with a sausage patty. Usually 28 fat grams at most fast food restaurants.

Although I am most definitely a muffin fan, I'll have to agree with Calluna and say I'm a big fan of the biscuits as well.

I eat them rarely, but I'll have to go with doughnuts (I prefer the cream-filled ones with chocolate frosting...mmm...).

I am American, and I like donuts...

 

[Achtung_Bebe]

we have sugarfree pineapple orange muffins where I work, and they are very tasty... also have a Harvest muffin, good as well. I am a fan of the glazed doughnut too, however. When I eat a muffin I don't feel quite so guilty, and would be more prone to eat more than one.

 

[u2valleygirl]

Scones are the best. They are not so sugary.

hmmmm, this is tough, although I'd have to say I opt for choccie muffins.......IF it were doughnuts then def. Tesco's jam-filled ones........

YUM!!!!!!!

It's all about Tim Horton's Chocolate Chip Muffins. They are soooooo good.

What's the deal with Krispy Kreme??? We just got one in Toronto, and people line up for 3-4 hours to buy donuts. They even have a little tent set up outside since it is winter here and the line up is constantly out the door. The drive thru line up is 3 blocks long.

Try it and you will see. Get a couple of glazed when the "Hot Doughnuts Now!" neon light is on.

I am not standing in line, or sitting in my car, for 3 hours to have a donut.

I did try one, but it was cold. It was nothing special.

It's about a 5 minute drive from my house, and they actually had two tents set up. I tried it when it was hot, and they're quite tasty.

I'd still pick a muffin over a donut, though.
