Thank you for informing us about this.

You never know what they do in the factory that produce your packaged food :smile:

yep they are good and double jammed that is two jammy bits inside so you are never far away from a jammy bit! :-)

Is this an excerpt from your autobiography? I'm already gripped.

These used to be 29p a while back but are now 19p.

Do you know if these are the low calorie ones?

You can only have a bite then :smile:

I never like buying food that's open to being touched or licked by passers by.

That's why I always buy food packaged or behind a counter.

Thank you for informing us about this.

These are great.

They are the best imo for that indulgent moment and need a proper sugar rush.

good find op, heat added

Good find? I've been buying these for this price over the last year. Heat though because are delicious.

Yep... stood behind a guy who had his dirty hands all over these... till he found the biggest and best
and no I didn't buy any... I've not bought any since :confused:

probably the best jam donuts in a supermarket you can get. always soft, always jam full and pretty big.

Low calorie donuts? Up there with meat-free bacon.

You should worry about the man behind the counter who 'filled' them

Couple of days went to my nearest lidl and most if their freshly baked items were looking absolutely lush! When I saw their iced cinnamon roll, I just had to buy it and omg! Missus bought a few (warm) maple pecans and vanilla crowns, tried one of each...omg!

FFS :laughing:

I don't like too much sugar on my doughnut so wouldn't buy these but the sweet chilli pizza type thing they sell is truly awesome.

The jam used to be far better when they were 29p.....absolutely average now. The same goes for the deluxe choclate cake and the topping now devoide of chocolate flakes.

Come back when they do cappuccino doughnuts.

I bought two chocolate croissants a while back and the lad on the till picked them up, looked at me with narrow eyes and said slowly 'Did.... did you stuff a cookie in there?'. I had to explain what a chocolate croissant was, and that I wasn't trying to smuggle cookies out inside plain croissants. Good luck buying a turducken from that lad.

The doughnuts are nice, so are the apple turnovers.

I agree with you, the bakery section in Borehamwood is openhouse, surprised this meets the Health Inspectorate rules. Saw a kiddy ( unsupervised picking up each item and giving it a sniff ) told him to go and find Mummy before he handles food but totally ignored. Told an Assistant she didnt understand, perhaps people have different standards to me?

The whole chocolate cake went down hill not just the lack of flakes, must have changed suppliers.
Co-op sells one that I think is the same as the old Lidl chocolate cake.

Morrisons doughnuts all the way!

​Very true.And the parents allowing the kids to touch it all up with their dirty hands.

I always get them from riiiiggghttt at the back and use tongs!

powdered sugar? wheres the crunch? Sainsburys are the best Supermarket Doughnut hands down. 5 for 65p. Cant lose.

​You need to try these. I used to think the 5 pack ones from supermarkets were good until I tried these.

Just got back from Majorca and in the lidls over there they have all their bakery stuff behind perspex and you have to move it in to another section with a really long spatula to get it. Much more hygienic.

Exercise more, then you won't need to worry about their calories :smirk:

Our hands are probably less sweaty in general than those in Majorca. So it's probably more necessary? You'd just dissolve all the sugar.

M&S packaged food is the worst. Their hygiene levels are the worst :confused:

I use to be a regular at the bakery section until I found two flies enjoying themselves on the cakes, did complain in writing to Lidl got a reply that they would introduce clear lids however 18 months later still no change....unless it's fresh out of the oven and your there before the flies...think again

You have same standards as me re handling of food. Was the staff member english speaking or from abroad ?

lol these aren't freshly baked, they are 'freshly' defrosted

Maybe they were picked and frozen within 2.5 hours like their peas?

Think these are nice, try the Blueberry Muffin.

Holy ****

Do you know how people have handled those tongs? ;p

I doubt that's their reasoning behind it even if it were true. I would say just basic hygiene would be why they do it like that.

wow a saving on 10p. Seriously. Free diabetes is the reason this is worth buying.

​It's not just about the saving but also about the taste. A doughnut once in a while won't do you any harm. Eat responsibly and life will be a joy! :wink:

Are they freshly baked or freshly defrosted?

Exactly, and they were most likely fried too.

Back....How does Bob Marley like his doughnuts?..........With jammin' :laughing: Had to get that one in,sorry,ill leave via the exit :wink:

My Marley may have liked his jammin' doughnuts, but...........................

No rum and no pie. :stuck_out_tongue:

Didn't Bob Marley write a song soon after a breakup and she took his tv?.......no woman no sky!

Don't worry I always carry anti bac gel

Why use tongs, if they're for you?!!
Once you get them home, do you eat them with a knife and fork then?

These have been 19p for months.

​they are frozen no one fills them behind a counter

can I use these doughnuts with my xbox?

​they are frozen and defrosted for 2 hours :smiley:

​yep, no harm in eating doughnuts while playing your xbox.

If I was going to eat a doughnut, I wouldn't mind spending a bit more. Maybe treat myself to a 99p doughnut.

​You can pay 99p at the checkout and say keep the change. :stuck_out_tongue:

that'll work! just spread it on the doughnut...

Nowt wrong with using your hands in production as long as they're washed and it's all hygienic. For instance I don't think I've ever seen a baker use gloves and they couldn't be more intimate with the product they're producing & my local sandwich shop are the same.

I do understand being wary of the public though, I've see adults stick their hands in pick & mix when the scooper is right in front of them.

It's called manners...

Yeah their doughnuts are lovely but when u see some people handling the bread etc then putting it back it kind of puts u off. Only have a doughnut if the tray is full so u can tell that no one has messed with them.

Have to agree, I dont shop at sainsburys (too far) but if Im passing, I'll go in just for these (ring doughnuts). yum.

They look like they are handling chicken. Considering the sandwiches will not be cooked at consumer end & consumer may not keep the product in the safe temp zone- That is high risk and they should be wearing gloves. WTH are they wearing aprons & sleeves but not gloves? I spent 7 years in a high care facility (cooked meats)

Yeah I'm not too bothered as long as they're clean, local sandwich shop is using cooked meats too and no gloves.

Anyway I'm now kinda wondering why some wear gloves and others don't in this video

​These have been. 19p for sonetime now. I absolutely love these, yes they work out more expensive than your 5 for 50p but, oh wow sooooo much nicer. Go on give them a try!!!

She had an Essex accent, but they have to work so hard as the way they make a profit is to have half the staff of the Big 4 supermarkets and they work them like slaves. in my opinion. Why can't it be less cut and thrust these days?
