Constance: What has no beginning, no end, and no middle?
Connie: A doughnut.
What is a doughnut or donut? A doughnut or donut is a snack cake or dessert cake. Doughnuts are commonly made from a combination of flour, a leavening agent such as baking soda or baking powder or yeast, sugar, eggs, salt, water, shortening, milk solids, and other ingredients. In the word ‘doughnut,’ ‘dough’ means the batter or mixture of ingredients from which the doughnut is made and ‘nut’ means a ‘small rounded cake or cookie.’ Glazed, powdered, Boston cream, frosted, Long John, cinnamon, Maple bars, chocolate, Crullers, and jelly are a few of the names for the many varieties of doughnuts.

The two main types of doughnuts are those made from a cake-like batter, called cake doughnuts, and those made from yeast dough, called yeast doughnuts. Cake doughnuts have a consistency similar to dense, heavy cake, and yeast doughnuts have a consistency similar to lightweight bread. Yeast doughnuts could also be called bread doughnuts, if we lived in a world in which reason and logic rather than custom, or lazy old habits, prevailed.
“The Sun was shining, the birds were singing . . . it was a perfect morning - and yet, the doughnuts just sat on the plate with a glazed expression.” -David Hugh Beaumont (born 1966)
Most historians believe that the Dutch were the first to introduce the modern doughnut to North America in the form of ‘olykoeks,’ or ‘oily cakes’ as early as the mid-19th century. These early doughnuts were balls of cake fried in pork fat. Because the center of the cake did not cook as fast as the outside, the gooey center was often replaced with fruit or nuts.

The origin of the word ‘doughnut’ is uncertain. Some researchers suggest the name refers to the nuts that were placed inside the ball of dough to compensate for the uncooked center. Other researchers claim it refers to ‘dough knots,’ which was a shape of early doughnuts. The origin of the doughnut is unknown, though different nationalities have had their own version of the treat throughout history.
Washington Irving (1783 - 1859) was one of the first people to use the word ‘doughnut’ in print. In his “History of New York” (1809), he describes, “balls of sweetened dough, fried in hog’s fat, and called doughnuts.”

American ship captain Hanson Crockett Gregory (1832 - 1921) claimed to have invented the first ring-shaped doughnut, or a doughnut with a hole in the middle, while he was a sailor aboard a lime-trading ship, at 15 years of age on 22 June 1847. Doughnuts of the time were cakes fried in oil; however, while the outside would cook, the centers remained uncooked dough or batter. To solve this problem, as he said, “I took the cover off the ship’s tin pepper box, and - I cut into the middle of that doughnut the first hole ever seen by mortal eyes!” The new ring shape allowed the hot oil to cook the doughnut dough evenly and completely.
Joey: I’ve been robbed!
Chloe: Really?
Joey: Yes, my doughnut has a hole in it from where someone stole part of it!
A type of doughnut is mentioned in the Christian Bible and the Jewish Torah. In chapter 7, verse 12 of Leviticus, the scripture says that a thanksgiving to God should be made of “cakes mingled with oil, of fine flour, fried.”

Glazed Donut Holes Of The Yeast Variety
The missing centers of doughnuts are called ‘doughnut holes.’ Of course, many ring-shaped doughnuts are made without ever having had middles or centers in them, but doughnut holes are nonetheless somewhat-humorously sold as if that is their origin. The ones pictured above are of the yeast doughnut variety.

Angus: What kind of doughnuts do people eat at the South Pole?
Clyde: Frozen ones.
Researchers have noted that the size of the hole in a doughnut correlates with the quality of the economy. Specifically, the worse the economy, the bigger the doughnut hole.
“The biggest difference between a doughnut and a donut are the letters u, g, and h.” -David Hugh Beaumont (born 1966)
In the 1934 movie “It Happened One Night,” Clark Gable started the trend of dunking doughnuts in milk when he showed a fellow actor the “right way to do it.” During the 1940’s, celebrities including as Johnny Carson, Pearl Buck, Red Skelton, Jimmy Durante, and Martha Graham were members of the National Dunking Association. The association even provided membership cards for dunkers.

Long John Doughnut With Cream Filling Inside And Chocolate Frosting On Top
Long Johns are bar-shaped yeast doughnuts that may be glazed and may have a cream or custard filling.
National Doughnut Day is observed on the first Friday of June every year. The holiday was established in 1938 to celebrate Salvation Army Workers, then known as Doughnut Girls, who supplied free doughnuts to American troops during World War 1. Another holiday celebrating the ubiquitous fried treat is National Doughnut Appreciation Day, which falls on 5 November of each year.
At least ten people in the United States of America have the surname, or last name, Doughnut or Donut. Ninety-five or more people have the surname Longjohn. Twelve people have the last name Bearclaw, 498 people have the surname Sprinkles, 470 people have the last name Fritter, and 1,634 have the surname Sugar.

Jelly-Filled Doughnut Also Known Simply As A Jelly Doughnut
Doughnuts can be as much as 25 percent fat because they absorb fat from the oil or grease in which they are fried.
“The center of a ring-shaped doughnut is one-hundred-percent fat-free because it is also one-hundred-percent doughnut-free.” -David Hugh Beaumont (born 1966)
A chocolate glazed doughnut has about 5 teaspoons of sugar. A possible dietary and nutritional counter-balance to that might be to eat, say, 30 pounds of broccoli or green beans for each chocolate glazed doughnut you eat. But to be sure, consult with your personal nutritionist beforehand.
If a person added a doughnut a day to his or her regular diet, that person would gain about one additional pound for each 10 days.

Cooking Poem
When you’re cooking in the kitchen,
You’re learning all the while -
To pour and measure, mix and stir
And sift flour into a pile.
Scrub your hands before you start
Then gather up the gear -
Like pots ‘n’ pans and measuring cups
That you use throughout the year.
Go over the recipe, step-by-step,
So you’ll know just what to do.
By carefully following the directions,
It won’t be hard for you.
Have a hot pad handy
And an adult standing by -
So you won’t hurt yourself
When using the stove or baking a pie.
Besides the fun and learning,
There’s always cleaning up to do,
And even though it’s quite a chore,
It’s part of cooking too.
But after all the work is done,
It will soon be time for dinner.
And when someone asks for seconds,
You’ll know you’ve cooked a winner!

Peanut Butter Sandwich
In the pantry in our kitchen
There is food on every shelf.
There’s a snack that I enjoy
And I can get it by myself.
When I am feeling hungry
And I need to fill my belly,
I find the peanut butter,
Get some bread and lots of jelly.
Then I make a tasty sandwich,
And I gobble every bite.
A peanut butter sandwich
Is simply a delight.
You can eat your cold Bologna
Or enjoy some ham and cheese.
But for me, when I am hungry
I say, “Peanut butter, please!”

It’s not always easy being cheesy . . . and yet, we continue curdling along . . .
Excellent Cheese
There was an old man who said, “Please
Give me some of that excellent cheese.
I have smelt it for miles,
Coming over the stiles.
To your beautiful house on the Tees.”
By E. V. Knox
Processed cheese food was invented by Waltz Gerber and Fritz Stettler in Switzerland in 1911. Its longer shelf-life allows it to be stored and shipped over long distances.
Scott: When cheese gets its picture taken, what does it say?
Eric: “People!”
The word ‘cheese’ comes from the Latin ‘caseus’ meaning ‘cheese’ which in turn likely comes from the Proto-Indo-European root ‘kwat-’ meaning ‘to ferment’ or ‘to sour.’
One day, at lunch at an elementary school, the cafeteria was serving Swiss cheese. A little girl received her meal and was disgusted by it. She told the lunch lady that she didn’t like the holes in her cheese. To which the lunch lady responded, “That’s okay, honey, just eat around the holes, and leave them on your plate.”
Overheard: For cheese a jolly good fellow, for cheese a jolly good fellow . . . which nobody can deny!
Knock, knock!
Who’s there?
Cheese!
Cheese, who?
Cheese a jolly good fellow!

Trent: What did the cheese say after hearing a joke?
Craig: That is a Gouda one!
“Swiss cheese is the only cheese you can draw and people can identify. You can draw American cheese, but someone will think it’s cheddar. It’s the only cheese you can bite and miss. ‘Hey Mitch - does that sandwich have cheese on it?’ ‘Every now and then!’” -Mitch Hedberg (Mitchell Lee ‘Mitch’ Hedberg (1968 - 2005))
Sandy: What cheese surrounds a medieval castle?
Sally: Moatzeralla.
“If only there were some way to make this big hunk of cheese into hundreds of little pieces of cheese, that would be just grate.” -Author Unknown
Belinda: How do you know cheese makes people happy?

“The holes in your Swiss cheese are somebody else’s Swiss cheese.” -Melvin Fishman: “New York Times” (1982), ‘Higher Education Supplement’
Why does Swiss cheese have holes? Swiss cheese is made by heating milk from a cow at high temperatures and then lifting the curd (solids) from the whey (liquids) in a fine-mesh net. This mass of curds is then made into blocks, salted with strong brine, wrapped to prevent drying, and stored for 6 to 8 weeks at 27 degrees Celsius (80 degrees Fahrenheit) to ferment. Holes are formed during this part of the process, as bubbles of carbon dioxide gas are liberated by bacteria used to promote fermentation. Cheese-makers call the holes in Swiss cheese ‘eyes.’
