Again I say: not doughy enough. And what the heck is a "friedcake"?

What's wrong with doughnut holes? Much less fattening and quite inexpensive if you buy them wholesale.

Nah, then you're getting into the absurdly named doughnut hole.

I'm just as nutty as you might imagine, bilby.

I hate nuts in my donuts. If the word had to be shortened, why cut out the good part? It should have been doughn. But it would probably annoy Misterpolly. ;-)

But the proportion of nut to dough in doughnuts is lesser than that of nut to do in donuts. Is this acceptable? Are you less nutty than we believe?

I prefer doughnuts myself. They're much more doughy.

You prefer doughnuts? In some parts of the world there still exist doughnuts, but policemen are devouring them mercilessly.

Actually, this one now appears in almost all English dictionaries, because after being bashed with it for five or six decades, the linguists have given up.
