There's a little shop selling very popular donuts in the city where I live. Everyday, people would queue 2 to 3 hours just to be able to buy the donuts. There aren't any seats so people would just stand in the queue.
Most people queue with at least one other person. Friends have told me how they queued with other people so that they could chat while waiting and also that gave them opportunities for toilet breaks since the wait was so long.
Would you be willing to queue for hours to buy food you enjoy? Why or why not? Please share your stories. Thanks. :)

Wow! Their donuts must taste really good, it makes me wonder. I've tried to wait inlines for food like this good 'pandesal' bread they have in 1 store, many people liked it esp during rainy seasons (we want to eat it with coffee) and the line is long but we don't take hours to wait maybe at the most is 15mins. The store owner sees to it that they have enough cashier lines and seats to accomodate their customers. Maybe you should suggest it to the store owner, it will add up to the sales of the store and add more customers.

Nope.
I use the internet to get it to my home. (well my parents) because the thought of wasting just drives me crazy especially since so many rude people are now among us.
Takes a couple of minutes on the internet and compared to going it saves hours. ~Joey

No, I would not wait for food for hours. I would rather make it than wait for it. There are a lot of foods I love, but I am a very good cook. Hours? That is a long time.
