        There are still a couple of donuts that are good despite the severe drop in quality (apparently not even they can fuck up the honey cruller) but yeah, it used to be a thought process on which of a bunch of donuts I wanted when people brought in a box, and now it’s a crapshoot whether I even care.

      Yeah the doughnuts are still good. Not as good as the days they used to bake in house. Tim Hortons is just a quick convenient way to get not-horrendous coffee. It was never gourmet and shouldn’t be compared as such.

          Nah, it was way better back in the day. Everything was baked in-house, and your meals were served to you on proper dinnerware with porcelain cups. It was closer to a diner than a fast food place. They changed suppliers for their beans in the mid 2000s and it all went downhill from there.
