Welcome back to my weekly donut rate and review! This week’s donut is the one……the only….. classic chocolate dip!
Earlier this week, I was feeling stressed out and in NEED of a treat to get me through the day, so what better way to satisfy my craving than a Tim Hortons donut. It was comforting to know that by getting this donut I was also partially doing an assignment that made me feel a lot better, so yay!
The chocolate dip is a well-known classic amongst many others, but this donut is by far a favourite for me. If someone were to ask me, “Paige, which donut would you pick out of all the donuts in Tim Hortons?” well, I would answer with the chocolate dip. Simply delicious. Not too sweet, not too messy, the perfect amount of dipped chocolate and with the appealing price of $1.29, this donut is more than just a comforting treat, but a memory.
For this week’s technology aspect, I started to look more into the Tim Hortons website and stumbled upon these two images that showcase the chosen donut of this week, the classic chocolate dip, and a touching story behind a box of donuts. I initially thought to myself, wow, whoever is running the Tim Hortons website is making it look way more than just a fast food restaurant. Until I then realized it is more than just a fast food restaurant. Growing up, getting a box of donuts was a tradition in my family on our road trips or stopping to get treats on our way to family functions. Thinking about this advertisement made me think back on the memories I have attached to Tim Hortons, which is possibly why I chose to do this inquiry in the first place. Tim Hortons reminds me of a family-friendly business with the added bonus of being my all-time favourite fast-food chain. Overall this promotion of attaching memories to a box of donuts is such a smart idea and is honestly not even a fake promotion as I, too, have similar memories to the story shared in the image.
Good job this week, Timmies!
