Take (it) away!

The flavour of these take away delicacies bears absolutely no resemblance to fresh pineapple or even canned. I actually ate that pineapple fritter! Anne

Pineapple and passionfruit slice

All I wanted to know was how many calories there are in a pineapple donut. 

After searching for an evening through several weight loss websites and watching numerous videos by “qualified nutritionists” I didn’t know whether to be amused or depressed.

However I did find out from that hugely reliable source, the Internet … that…

*There are the same number of calories in 14 slices of pineapple as there are in one glazed donut,

*There are many recipes for pineapple donuts out there including pina colada frosted donuts and pineapple filled donuts with cream cheese icing,

*It’s possible to purchase Donut "Pineapple" In-Ear Stereo Earphones,

*There are people who actually think a pineapple donut tastes like pineapple,

and

*a 56.7 gram pineapple donut = 262 calories.

Is that a lot? I have no idea, Anne.
