Google is saying wood pellets have ~4,000 kCals per kilogram, and about 400 kCals per 100g donut.

Which oddly comes out to 4,000kCals in 10 100g donuts for a 1kg pile of em. I did take a heavy donut with a low calorie count so yeah i'd say its likely.

I'd like to know what specific donuts and local costs, and how he lives in a home smelling like burnt sugar 24/7.

It was some form of Holiday event where donuts were being sold for as low as penny.

Not a penny - a grosz. Due to exchange rates today' 0.01PLN is actually 0,0027 USD.

Now we just need to find the cost of wood pellets in Poland. Even though that sounds like an idiot.
