Nova Scotia loves Tim Hortons.\u00a0 Seriously.\u00a0 And let me tell you…I love it too.\u00a0 Where else is a ‘lunch combo’ a sandwich, donut, and coffee?\u00a0 What kind of combination of foods is that?!\u00a0 The donuts are a little Krispy Kreme,\u00a0 but the sandwiches taste 100% homemade.<\/p>\n

This has got to be the only food establishment I’ve come across that actually manages to have more locations in a given area than McDonalds<\/em>.\u00a0 I passed about 40 of them, but through a little research I’ve found over 100 locations in Nova Scotia, the equivalent of about one Tim Hortons<\/em> for every 7,000 citizens.\u00a0 Not bad.<\/p>\n
