Throwing health concerns to the wind, regional editor of Midlands Newsquest Peter John said: 'This is a great chance for Reporter readers to remember just how good Tesco's doughnuts are.

We hope with a little help from the Reporter's increasing number of readers, that the Tesco doughnut line will be able to get back on its feet. It would be a tragedy to lose this traditional doughy favourite.
Mr John added, 'Go on. You know you love them!
