Ohh I thought donut was the American spelling of doughnut.

Yup, doughnut if you're being fancy, donut if it's some trash from the grocery store.

Not necessarily. Some hole in the wall serving the best damn breakfast pastries our country has to offer is gonna call it a donut. A donut is a working class doughnut.

Yup, fancy is usually less tasty IMO. I prefer the ghetto donuts at our grocery store to the fancy doughnuts at the fancy bakery.
