Donut is just an American variation of the spelling, and considering they're talking about what Americans call this, donut is perfectly acceptable, and maybe even a more correct usage than the doughnut spelling

Damn i have always had it in my head as dough knot. And it never looks right when i write it out.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

If its more correct, then why have I been nutting in the dough all this time?

Am I the only one that finds the whole "fake British words" genre of meme painfully unfunny?

You have to say snoggletarts out loud with a British accent.

Maybe if Brits would stop saying ridiculous things lol

You go enjoy your hushpuppies, elephant ears, bear claws, snickerdoodles and hootenannies.

All those fixins at a hootenanny sounds like my kind of shindig!

If these were British, they’d be coated in granulated sugar and called doughnut… balls? Just tiny doughnuts? I can’t imagine someone wouldn’t want to put jam in the middle or dip them in chocolate.

Nah man, Brits would split them in half and spread a mixture of marmite and clotted cream on them.

Half of the population would call them "Yorkie balls" and the other would insist they're just scones.

In Japan they’re just doughnut balls. Mister Donut calls them “pops.”
