  1. Given how bad my experiences with donuts at the Greenwood location were when they made the donuts themselves (raw dough both times), I shudder to think how bad they were from the commissary.

  2. Stopped at the Jacks in Westfield two weeks ago about 9 am. Was surprised to see the cases almost empty. Bought a twist and it tasted like it was at least 2 days old.
