Doughnut chain Krispy Kreme has been criticised for dumping a "mountain" of unwanted doughnuts outside one of its stores in Bristol.
Dozens of bags discarded sweet treats were photographed piled-up outside a shop in Avon Meads on Monday morning.
Chris Clewes said he was so disgusted by the "heaps of wasted doughnuts" - he took a picture and posted it online.
Krispy Kreme said there had been a problem with their recycling process which has since been resolved.
Mr Clewes said he had been getting a coffee when he spotted around 50 bags of "waste doughnuts" stacked up on top of a pallet and four large bins.
"I was absolutely flabbergasted. I reckon there were about 200 doughnuts in each bag - if not more," he said.
"I've done some quick maths and I reckon there were about 15,000 doughnuts being wasted there."

So if he wants some, let him grab a bag and take them home with him.

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?

"Donut" and "wasted" - not two words I'd associate
For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts

For me, it is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring.

Anybody with that level of concern over wasted doughnuts must be a big fat-ass gas bag.
Just a thought....

Your collective inability to acknowledge this obvious truth makes you all look like fools.

My favorites munchies foods are Pad Thai or gelato/ice cream - or both!
