Goodbye cheap $1/ea donuts

Truth be told considering how worthless the dollar has become over the past couple decades? Even a $1½ buck bear claw or apple fritter is a rare find. It's the nature of fiat money.

 

. . . not that any other national 'fiat currencies' have done much better, most have done considerably worse.

 

Yeah I tried with cornmeal, once... Visual aid:

 

I'll bet you like your peameal bacon though... AKA Canadian bacon with cornmeal.

 

A chain recently opened up in the Philly area that imports the dough or boiled bagels from NYC.

Did hear about a bakery in Florida that installed a water treatment system to adjust the tap water to the chemistry of Long Island's.

 

Breweries do this all the time; it's pretty much required for contract expansions when a given variety needs to be produced in several places to meet market demand.

Bakers have a harder time justifying the expense of that installation, but the big operators will do it.

 

Dang me. Now you all have done it. I have to make bagels this weekend, which means I have to get a bag of einkorn flour, which isn't cheap. Ah, well. Maybe plain and cinnamon raisin. Water isn't NY. Just Oregon well.
