Well, this is a bit of a confusing one. Seeing as I had no bakeries from Milton, I thought I would finally add one to the list. Not that easy, as there aren't that many there. One that does come up is "Main Street Donuts & Bakery", also known as "Main Street Italian Bakery". On location, there's only "Main Street Italian Eatery". No mention of bakery on the sign or store front, but this was the place. New management? Switching focus over to just Italian food? Whatever it was, I didn't get a backup bakery, so Main Street it was. Inside, it is indeed the Italian eatery, with pizza, hot sandwiches, and all those classic Italian dishes. And yet, confusingly enough, they still had a case of several varieties of doughnuts and a few North American bakery staples, but nothing else. In this sense, one of their many titles as "Italian Bakery" is perhaps the most deceiving: there isn't anything Italian about the "baked goods".

The doughnuts looked a little commercial, especially the sprinkle doughnuts, so I'm not even sure they bake anything... after all, despite the above name seen online, it's not a bakery. But people were still going for them. Anyways, just to say this place was done, an apple fritter was taken. Flat piece of fried dough with good amount of apples, this was nicely fried, though maybe a little too oily in places and unevenly glazed. Parts with the glaze were pretty tasty; nice texture, lightly spiced apples. A bit inconsistent, but fresh and pretty good considering. Still, I went away feeling perplexed and that feeling hasn't gone away yet...  O.o
