Ha-ha!;) Suzanne sounds a bit like Popeye.

I like the mis-spelling on the bread rolls, must have given various customers a good laugh [as long as they could spell, of course.]
 
What Started the “Cops Eating Donuts” Stereotype

Members of law enforcement stuffing their faces full of donuts is one of the most enduring stereotypes about the boys and girls in blue. In virtually every media representation of the police that isn’t deadly serious, the stereotype is played out in some way- Police Academy, The Simpsons, Family Guy, hell, in Wreck-it Ralph the police officers are literally sentient donuts. So where and when did this stereotype start?

I don't know who sarted this Jim, but I want some. American donuts look very yummy, and even look as if some have cream inside? Ours just have a dab of jam inside [jelly.]

BTW I have not had a doughnut [as we spell it] for years, but now I am craving one.

Doughnut vs. donut
"The dictionary-approved spelling for the ring-shaped cake made of dough and fried in fat is doughnut. The shortened donut has been around since the late 1800s, but it wasn’t popularized until the late 20th century, when the successful American doughnut chain Dunkin’ Donuts made it ubiquitous. Today, writers outside the U.S. still favor doughnut by a wide margin. Donut appears about a third of the time in published American writing.


Donut is a simpler spelling, so it may grow even more common now that it has a foothold. Those of us who don’t wish to assist Dunkin’ Donuts’s branding would be wise to resist the trend, though".


P.S. In Swedish, it is Dunkin Munks!:)
