Unfortunately the news that we can no longer expect “doughnut days” in Victoria has made me even more reliant on the sweet treat. | OPINION covid19 lockdown

With Premier Dan Andrews and Chief Health Officer Brett Sutton revising Victoria’s coronavirus strategy last week, we were told that days of no new positive cases of COVID-19 are something we should no longer expect.Premier Daniel Andrews has said that Victoria is moving away from a COVID zero strategy.The word “doughnut” as a synonym for the number zero has been around for a long time.

Doughnuts are my comfort food; my guilty pleasure. They are perhaps the one true continuous love I’ve had since childhood. And while our lives and lifestyles continue to be compromised by the scourge of COVID, they will continue to be so. Inside was a simple, jam-filled, sugar-covered ball of fried dough. One bite was all it took to kick off a life-long love affair.Not long after, on a Saturday morning shopping trip to our local supermarket in the western suburb of St Albans, I discovered Schmidt’s Continental Cake Shop. In the window was what looked like a doughnut, but the shelf tag referred to it as a “Jam Berliner”.

I now want a donut from a place called Annie’s. I don’t know if they survived Covid as they had just opened here, but def donuts to die for (or of).

All about health

Love a good doughnut, AndrewGigacz - childhood memories of Chadstone Downyflake and Lakes Entrance jetty. I only see the term Berliner used at Coles. Remember Herbert Adams’ donuts? I too remember frozen Jiffy’s were a special family treat.

New donut days may have to be no hospitalised or patients in ICU 🍩
