Gonuts with disappointment with these Donuts

About 8 years ago (if I remember it right), before citizens of the Philippines went Krazy over Krispy Kreme, there was GONUTS DONUTS!

Everyone went NUTS (pun intended) over these sweet treats, because it is something new!  For the longest time, the first thing that comes to mind to us Filipinos when we hear the word DOUGHNUT is Dunkin' Donuts!  Because that was the only brand of doughnut available in the Philippines.  So when Gonuts Donuts was introduced, everyone was just eager to try 'em.

I must say, when Gonuts Donuts first launched, their donuts were really yummy!  You can actually tell the freshness of their doughnuts and very flavorful.  It has the right amount of sweetness.  It was bigger in size compared to Dunkin Donuts' and heavier.  THAT was years back.

Now... their donuts are too dry, and too sweet, and has shrunk!  Yes, they may have been selling them cheap (about Php 240, 1 dozen) compared to when they first came out, but the quality is just so poor now. :(

Dunkin' Donuts actually did make smaller donuts too a few years back (during the big recession), but the quality - meaning the texture and the flavor of the donuts are the same.  It just differed in size.  Unlike Gonuts Donuts, not only did they make their donuts smaller, they totally murdered the flavors and the quality of their donuts.

Now that there's Krispy Kreme, and that the recession years have gone by, Dunkin Donuts is back in making donuts the size like their originals from way back circa 1980's.  And oh how I love 'em! :)
