I guess the donuts b-day was June 22...it is 164 yrs old.


Happy birthday donut. My how you've grown!

Did you know the donut turned 164 years old on June 22nd? The story goes that a Dutch sea captain invented the pastry in 1847 out of necessity. He was eating a piece of cake and a storm suddenly hit, so he impaled the treat on the steering wheel to save it for later. And voila! We've got a donut.
