  • Lee’s Donuts was started by a self-proclaimed “hippie dippy” couple, and their same recipe has been used since 1979. Their signature doughnut is the Honey Dip, which locals and tourists alike love for its melt-in-your-mouth quality.

      @martinregular5003 5 лет назад +138

      No It's not. It's free marketing, Nike spends millions endorsing sports celebrities in order to boost sales and keep the brand fresh. In this day and age is good business for a small doughnut shop to have Seth Rogen coming down for a goodie and in return he gets some freebies. (I'm sure he did not ask for It, money is not an issue for him anymore)

    "what's better than a hot fresh donut?"
    No debt, nice house, good job, healthy and happy family and just good health in general, good sleep, good food.... I can list a lot of things, but fresh donuts are bomb too.
