As I sit eating this donut and drinking this birch beer at the Donut Whole I can't help but wonder why food has to be healthy?  Of course I understand the importance of healthy eating, but what about enjoying what you eat. 

As a Realtor I spend a lot of time eating on the run which is most likely the absolute worst possible way to eat.  Much of what I eat isn't what I would consider healthy or flavorful for that matter.  When I do get a chance to sit down and eat something for the sake of enjoyment I have a tendency to be picky.  One thing I really love is a good soda and some donuts.  The Donut Whole happens to have both as well as a calm atmosphere to wind down a bit. 

Part of the eating experience should be the environment where it is eaten.  I try to make it a point to hit a place like this every now and then to keep things fresh.  It's a nice change of pace to alter the norm and hit a little coffee shop, or donut shop for that matter. 

Let's not forget about the variety of interesting people who frequent those sorts of places.  As different as they all are from one another and myself they all have one thing in common. They all like a good donut.
