Why is it call "doughnuts" ?

Hi desierra! You ate all six! I could do that easily too! I love doughnuts! I have to stop myself or I could eat all of them even if there was 12! I like all kinds and flavors. We have a Dunkin Donuts where I live in NY. In fact there is one in walking distance down the block. I have to keep myself from going in there or walking near there because of the smells! I live blueberry, bowties, powdered sugar, jelly, even plain doughnuts! In fact my boyfriend brought home 4 the other day and I had to only eat 2 because 2 were for him! When they are fresh the just melt in your mouth. Now that I am writing this my mouth is watering and I want to take a walk down the street and get me some!

hehehe thats a good question and what i have heared its american sweet food so maybe there is a nice answer from americansanyway i love all flavors its very good taste but very bad if too much.

Hi Desierral, I’m certainly sure that the doughnut you had come across was the most beautiful and tastiest one you ever taken before, so that you straight away eaten six of them at one time as your dinner . Yeah there are great varieties of doughnut with different recipes. I like its unique fragrance and texture and its particular ring shape as well. I just like the traditional one with sugar spreading on it. Anyway it’s simple and economic so that everyone could afford to buy them in the cake house. I find that kids normally like those with chocolate topping and colorful flakes with some lovely star shape sugar on it. Actually I have no idea how the name “doughnut” was originated posting and have a nice day.

I suppose as it's made of dough, and shaped like a nut. as in nuts and bolts nuts. I like a classic jam doughnut best. I find ring doughnuts a bit dry, and no filling beats a good raspberry or strawberry jam

HEllo my fren..Where have u been recently?? hOw have u been?? SO long din see u around in mylot, and i miss your discussions.. lol =D I love doughnuts, but i have to control myself, because they are super sweet, plus, they are very filling for me.. And i'm surprised that u managed to eat 6 for dinner?? haha =D Are the doughnuts too small for u, or they are just simply irresistable?? hehe ^_^ I only like the original doughnut which is coated with sugar, if not, with chocolate ^_^ I guess doughnut gets its name, from the actual thing it's made of, and it's round ^_^ haha

Hey there dear friend! It's been quite a while. Wow you ate all 6? Haha. I wonder why there are called doughnuts or donuts too... Hmm... I love eating them too but I've refrained from doing so since they tend to get really sweet which is bad for the health. Hehe.
