Doughnuts (not donuts!). The only way to have doughnuts is from one of those little kiosks by the pier at the seaside. Where they cook them in front of your eyes, the ring of dough plops into the hot oil and gets wobbled along the machine while the underneath cooks then at halfway a turny thingy turns them over so that the other side can brown, and at the end they fall off into a tray of sugar. Then the seller puts them in a white paper bag that immediately starts turning translucent with the hot fat, and when you take one from the bag it burns your fingers and you have to blow on it until it is cool enough to take a bite. All the time you can smell the salt in the air and hear the seagulls cry as they wheel through the air then come and land near you hoping that you will throw them a piece of your lovely hot doughnut. But you don't because it's your doughnut.
And after you've gone home from your holiday you buy some doughnuts from the supermarket because you remember what they were like at the seaside, but the supermarket ones are just horrid. |

"Ugh I hate those greasy little van doughnuts.
Give me an American donut or a decent jam doughnut over them any day. "
I'm with you on the van thing, it's got to be a kiosk by the seaside. The whole gestalt doughnut/kiosk/seabreeze/waves/seagulls/holiday experience is essential. |

"What a dreamy description. 
My Grandma made doughnuts and they were fried in lard I believe  
Fried in lard... From a time before heart attacks had been invented. "
Well she is in her 80s now so that would apply probably;-) |

No not for me, I don't even like the smell as its just fat.
I find those e-cigarettes which come in various flavours have scents which remind me of those fried doughnuts stands.
Everytime I have the unfortunate pleasure of walking behind someone who exhales the largest cloud of dinky donuts mist in my direction I call out "tonight mathew I am going to be Cher..."
I would prefer a krispy kreme donut instead.

I know the one! The smell is perhaps the only thing that makes walking down the high street worth it |

Omg those heat attack inducing fried lovelies are AMAZING
I can't wait to go to the seaside - if only to eat loads of them and feel a bit sick - but soldier on because they're so delicious  |
