    I'm just wondering. A few weeks ago, I decided to buy J. Co donuts as my "toka" for our family dinner dessert if the branch i passed by in Eastwood would not have too long a line. When i went on a Sunday afternoon and noticed there was hardly any line (when i went in, there was maybe around 3-4 people ahead of us only, plus the people waiting inside/dining). I thought " hey great, that means we'll be out in a jiffy..."... lo and behold, we waited for around 20 minutes for our friggin number to be called.

    Even Krispy Kreme during its heyday did not have such a waiting time... even with a long line. So, is there something wrong with the process of J.Co or am i missing something? Or possibly it's all part of the marketing ploy to make the line long to add to that "aura" of desirability? Just wondering...

    Natikman ko na rin sa wakas itong pinagkakaguluhang J.Co

    Masarap nga naman Not too sweet for my taste. Kaya lang di na sya masarap kapag kinabukasan na, unlike Krispy Kreme, kahit 2 days na malambot parin.

    Don't know kung nag die down na yung fad dahil nagsawa na ang tao kasi nung bumili ako twice sa ATC eh di naman masyado mahaba pila. Tsaka mabilis lang from pila to pili to bayad.

    Di katulad nung mga nakapost sa FB na blockbuster ang pila.
