Glory Hole Doughnuts combines two great things

BY ROB SALERNO – Glory Hole Doughnuts, a new upscale doughnut bakery in Toronto, is combining two of the world’s most perfect delights: doughnuts and bacon.

If you thought I meant something else, shame on you. There is no way that would pass the health code.

Glory Hole is part of a trend toward upscale junk food, and its luxurious desserts are basically junk-food porn. Just look at these works of art:

Maple Bacon

Fried Chicken and Waffles

Coconut Cream

Pudding

S’mores

I suppose some guys of a certain size could make a glory hole out of these things, but would any man benefit from the comparison?

Mmmm . . . bacon.
