Really fresh crullers with a side of dark roast coffee is one of my
favorite ways to enjoy breakfast.

Chocolate covered donuts were my favorite way back when!

French - those wavy ones that they squeeze out from a pastry bag,
Still soft in the middle with a light light powdered sugar glaze.
Fortunately they show up very infrequently in the donut case.
Otherwise I like plain cake donuts with no glaze or sugar at all,
Especially if they're crisp on the outside, not too sweet and soft in
the middle (with nutmeg). Lynn in Fargo

Fried hunk of dough. That's all a doughnut is.

Take my word for it! I made over 750,000 long johns a year in the
1980's, and LJ's were not even our best seller! Just easiest to count!

I think you mean French Crawlers.

Are Eclairs considered donuts? Mmmm

No. An eclair is not a doughnut.

And the word is "crullers", and the ones I made were pumped out of the
cake donut machine with a special cruller piston which had slots and
rotated as the dough was dropped. Very cool! But we just called 'em
French Donuts, not crullers. To my understanding crullers are
something entirely different.

Curry doughnuts! (Some of you will know this is not a joke.)

As for the date, that would depend on what you are calling a
doughnut. Does it require a hole?

No, long johns are donuts but have no hole. Others as well. Being
dough or batter and being fried makes a thing a donut. Bignets (sp)
are technically donuts.

That's like saying prime rib is just a piece of animal carcass; true in the
most simplistic sense, but so totally wrong.

While Danny donuts were pretty good, they were by no means the
cream-of-the-crop; they were, however, vastly superior to the supermarket
donut that seems to have taken over the world. Besides, a guy who made
750,000 of any food item is probably not a good source for commentary on it.
Who would give a spit about a donut after smelling them, and like them,
day-after-day?

Sadly, there are too few "mom-and-pop" donut shops around and way too many
purveyors of industrial donuts. I'd love to get my hands on a Dixie Creme
donut as they were in the 50s and 60s - I don't care what it did to my
glucose level, I could deal with it on rare occasion.

About once a year, my mother made raised donuts. Lot of work and
they were gone in a flash.

Commercial donuts sit in my stomach like lead for hours, so I rarely
indulge. Maybe once in a blue moon, a DD jelly stick if I'm on he
road and it's the only thing close in the way of a b'fast.

No. An eclair is not a doughnut.


I say if a cruller is a donut then so is an eclair.

And the word is "crullers",

Gee, who knew... I catch more bottom feeders with donut crawlers than I do
with octopus testicles. LOL

Plain cake doughnuts, split like a bagel and lightly toasted,
spread lightly with cream cheese.

Probably 5000 calories and 1000 grams of fat so I haven't had one
in maybe 15 years, but dang, they were good.

You sound like the person who invented fried cheese! I can just
imagine them looking at a piece of cheese and saying "This doesn't yet
have enough fat in it, I think I'll FRY it!"

Yep, but it was a wonderful combination of textures and flavors--
crisp, warm, sweet doughnut with cold, salty, creamy cheese.
