I respect your desire to establish an "official" (whatever that means - who are the Festivus officials?) donut for you and your family. However, trying to impose your concept of what is delicious in the world of high-temp fat fried dough on the rest of us (yes, that was an allusion), denies the very nature of Festivus.

By all means, declare your undying allegiance to the KK as the fluffiest, most desirable clouds of sweet, fragrant deliciousness if you must. Personally, I find they leave a slight layer of sticky wax on my upper palate - not the most pleasant sensation. I much prefer the lovely cakeiness of Mighty-O, or the silly puffs of airyness that is Top Pot (the chocolate old-fashioned does kick patookie). Countryside makes the best maple bar I've ever had.

But please don't impose your beliefs on the festivus revelers at large. I'll leave you to your prejudices if you leave us to ours.
