We usually don't get such impassioned recommendations in the press, but it sounds like Webster is the place to go for apple fritters. I am always looking for worthwhile information.

You may also wish to check out Donut King in Leesburg,. 708 S 14th St. It’s near the intersection of 44 and 27.

It should be closer than Webster

Don't know if I would do up to 5 years for Donut King.....but a really good apple fritter, now that's a whole other story. Did you read the story the OP was posting about?

There is no better than Donut King. Don't you watch the Villages Newcomers on Youtube?

I grew up on D&D not even close to what they once were. I drive the extra mile for Donut King.
If I'm in the Webster area I will stop and try.

I did some Googling and I am going to assume that you are referring to:

Dough J's Chicken and Donuts
155 E Central Ave
Webster, FL 33597

It gets a 4.8 rating from 223 reviews. Great reviews, not only for their donuts, but also for their breakfasts and their chicken. Thanks for the tip. I wish I knew this when I passed through Webster on Saturday. Looks like there is a bacon-caramel donut in my future.

You've got to admit, it does sound like a contrived answer.

Just my humble nurses opinion.... too many bacon-caramel donuts do not equate to much of a "future".......

Are you talking about quality or quantity?

Some tend not to realize. The seller controls POSTED customer quotes. Drive to Webster for a doughnut?

Perhaps, a traditionalist but bacon Caramel doughnuts, doughnuts and fried chicken neither sounds appetizing.

In the future when they write our history perhaps they will write, can you believe they did NOT know salami, bacon, sugar and fat are good for you. Perhaps it is Puritanical what we are drawn to the medical INDUSTRY tells us it is no good for you.
