Only in New Zealand: Fish & donuts (??)

I was passing through Auckland airport the other week and happened to glance at the Dunkin Donuts stand. {as you do, on the way through.. Apart from the batter & sugar a donut is great for a low carb, high protein diet}

Anyhow, I spotted they had a special new donut.

With a chocolate fish on it.

The only irritating thing was that I forgot to take a photo.   I wasn’t about to buy a tray and gob them all myself on the next flight otherwise I could have flown there without a plane on the sugar high.  And I may have remembered to take a photo.

So I had a quick look at their NZ Website, to try and find you a photo.

Without luck

I did however find two gems;

Yes, read it again.  You’re never far from a DD’s, unless you’re anywhere outside of Auckland.  Ho hum.  In fact it is not unknown for some folks from Auckland flying down to Wellington for the day, to buy a couple of insulated cartons.  Holding about four boxes of two dozen donuts each.  What a way to win friends & influence people in the capital, with 16 dozen donuts!

On the plus side, the DD international website does provide some redemption for us.

You’re never far from a DD’s in Australia, as long as you’re nowhere outside of Auckland.

The Aussies may have Ikea, but at least NZ Auckland has DD’s.Laughing_RoflSmileyLJ
