Would You Spend $100 on a Donut?

If your New Year’s resolutions were to lose weight and save money, there’s a Filipino restaurant in Brooklyn, New York that REALLY wants you to break both of them simultaneously.  The Manila Social Club just introduced a new item, a $100 DONUT. 
Here’s how they justify the price.  The donut is filled with a mix of mousse and champagne jelly, the icing is made out of Cristal champagne, and the top is covered in 24-karat gold flakes.
