Donut Facts

In July 2008 the oldest unopened package of Hostess Donuts was discovered inside a sideboard in Torosay Castle, Isle of Mull, Scotland. The 1893 package was in mint condition, having been kept in the dark. It is now on display at the Hostess visitor centre in Reims, France and is regarded as priceless.

In September 2009 the discovery of Crullerus sinensis, a fossilised donut closely related to the common ancestor of the Old World crullers, is announced.

October 1925: Cruller-donut controversy: High school biology teacher Don P. Snopes was found guilty of violating Tennessee's Bismarck Act by eating a donut in class.
