>There are only two donut shops that Canadians visit: Tim Horton's and Tim Horton's. Possibly the most Canadian thing around, Tim Horton's is this GIANT national donut-shop chain (they're also becoming famous for their coffee). If a town doesn't have a Tim Horton's, it's nothing. And there is NO competition. I'm surprised you could even find a Dunkin' Donuts - of course, you were in Quebec. That changes everything.

Interesting...I was wondering about "Tim Hortons." They have those in Columbus, Ohio. I've never bought anything there, probably mainly because Columbus is an hour and a half away. I've eaten at this strange conglomeration-type resteraunt, a Wendy's-Tim Horton place. One buiding, but two serving counters inside and two dining rooms. Wendy's on the left, Tim Horton's on the right. It was odd. We were there for lunch so we ate at the Wendys. I'm not much of a frequenter of donut shops anyway.

Gri"shny likes to eat breakfast at places like Bob Evans. They have great 'browns of ha"sh'(ny)
