im just wondering how come the police are always associated with coffee and donuts. Well with coffee, I would understand, since almost everyone drinks coffee. However with donuts, I dont know. I always see that like in US movies, police loves eating donuts. Is that really the favorite pasttime food of the American police? Do most Americans like donuts? Or really just the authorities? Share your thoughts and ideas, and if youre also wondering why. =)

...some americans said if the police didn't catch the bad guys, "ooh maybe they are busy eating their donuts and zipping their coffee" the truth is, inorder to understand how the donut became 'cops food' we go back in history, LOL!!, in late 70's it's common practise for donut and coffee shops to simply give free donuts and coffee for free the reason is they wanted the pooolice, "i love saying that, LOL!", to keep coming back in their shop co'z if the pooolice is around it's deterrent for any criminals who might think of stealing or rob the shop co'z it's cheap way to rob a donut or coffee shop...
