America's Best Donuts, Part 2

Barring a breaking news story, I'll be a guest on NBC's Weekend Today this Sunday and I'm bringing donuts. Flavors from both Portland, Oregon's Voodoo Doughnut (known for their bacon ones) and Doughnut Plant in New York (think artisanal) will be part of the on-air tasting as well as others from our Best Places for Donuts list.

Have a favorite donut spot we missed? Of course you do! We received lots of emails and even a few letters telling us we'd blown it. "How could you leave X off your list..." the cries often began. We may never agree on the best donut spots, but let's be thankful that there are still so many great places to get one of America's most iconic foods. Below, you'll find recommendations from our readers and I'm betting there's still a few missing from this list too. Tell us your favorite donut spot and be sure to watch on Sunday.
