The Wingwalker Donut Flight is one of the many new food offerings at the Minnesota State Fair this year. Each order of donut holes comes with three syringes of fillings to inject into them. The waste generated (three syringes times thousands and thousands of orders) over the 10 day fair run is absurd. In addition, the image conveyed by syringes being cool and containing treats, not to mention being littered around on the ground is not one we should be wanting to promote.

Filled donut holes sound like a fine idea. Fill them for us from a big dispenser that's not going to last centuries in the ocean or landfill.
