Happy National Doughtnut Day!
« on: June 01, 2018, 10:50:24 am »
Do you spell it doughnut or donut. I always have spelled it donut the other spelling is just odd. Which kind, deep fried or cake? What favor: maple, chocolate, old fashion sugar, or the filled with cream. I eat all kinds, give any flavor a try even the bacon one. yumm Have a gr8 day!  :present:

I hardly ever eat donuts. Way too much sugar there. I believe either spelling is correct.

'The Official Dictionary Spelling of the word in question—if you're into that sort of thing—is “doughnut.” The expedited, simplified, Americanized spelling of “donut,” as Grammarist tells us, has been around since at least the late 19th century. It didn't catch on, though, until late in the 20th century.'

Evidently there are many places that give away free donuts today. So if you're interested check it out.

Who knew? :dontknow:
