granny cant have her daily fix if Putnam County , NY. officials have there way ! :(
doughnuts and cakes and other baked goods .

patrons have said they're mature enough to decide what to eat, and some 250 people have signed a petition blasting the proposed doughnut ban.


Nutritionists have questioned whether the doughnuts are suitable snacks for the over-65 demographic, which is susceptible to high blood pressure, heart disease and diabetes. {ha they have live this long on there donuts .come on get a life you asshats ) http://apnews.excite.com/article/20070822/D8R63SVO0.html

Sometimes I kind of wish the government had a little oversight in what people eat. I know that kind of goes against the whole freedom thing, and I would never be politically or officially for it, but it would sure help with the current "Epidemic" we find ourselves in.

Situations like this probably make seniors want to just throw in the towel. Seems like when you hit a certain age you no longer live, you just exist.

If the day olds had mold on them....I don't think that they are just a day old.

that's why they called them "Days old" :)

But yeah, after reading the rest of the article and not just the clips, I can see the point in banning the Storing of them at the Senior Centers.

Hell, when I get to be that age, I'm probably gonna be thinkin, "You know what? I've lived my life. I've worked hard for 30+ years, and now I want to enjoy whatever time I have left in whatever way I want to. So gimme my freakin Krispy Kreme!"
