    Watch out for the trans fats. It's the only thing killing the donuts experience for me. Can't remember if Tims phased it out yet or not.

    Nasty stuff.

    Ok now that's just making me hungry as all get out...

    There a Tim's like 2 minutes from me. Sometimes the Boston Creme cravings can be unbearable. I can get a 24 hour country style fix but that's like a whole entire 5 minutes away.

    thank god the crispy creme closed. That was bad, I think I still have a mild heart murmur from when they first opened.

    Ken me being a typical left coaster you would probably consider me a coffee snob ......I'm not much for Timmy’s coffee, I go for espresso based drinks usually from smaller independent coffee shops this one is my favorite http://www.caffeartigiano.com/

    Getting back to the donuts people at our work use to bring the Timbits in for a treat on Fridays but after they changed the process we found the donuts were stale by 11:00AM!

    Tim Hortons was the first 24 hour joint in my sleepy little town. A favorite now among insomniacs, teens, and those with "fourth meal" complex.

    mmmm....love to get a French Vanilla Capo there, and maybe a Chocolate Dip. Looking at that nutrition thing, maybe I should start considering chaning the French Vanilla for a regular coffee. But it's not like it's everyday

    There's a Tim's two minutes from EVERYONE.

    I wish they'd fuck off though. Every morning they're so busy the street is backed up with bloody morons waiting to get into the drive-thru.

    Tim's rules! Although I'm not a fan of hot beverages...once in awhile...once in awhile...I DO cave in and get a double-double.
    I love their sandwiches though...Turkey Bacon Club is sex!

    ISn't there one in Buffalo, also?

    Have you all had Krispy Kremes? Now THAT is a donut! :) uuuum, donuts ;)

    I had this on Saturday for the first time

    yeah Krispy Kreme came and went around here, and much of Canada I expect. I don't think they have any retail locations any more

    it was good, but it only had one kind up here, really sugary donuts.

    mmmmmmmm donuts...;)

    My family likes it when I go to Canada because I always bring them back a big box of Timbits.

    Sadly, there is not a Tim's two minutes from us. It's more like a two hour flight! :( After Tybird reads this thread, he'll be in mourning for the Iced Maple donut. Ya'll enjoy for us, please!

    LOL!

    We were in Halifax for the PJ show when I was introduced to Tim Horton's! I'm dying to go back...loved the town and loved the donuts. We have Krispy Kreme down here...which is like a diabetic coma in circular form.

    I don't visit TH very often, but their chili is tasty.
    Medium double-double and a boston cream is the norm when I do go.
