So you can hold more than one at a time...

Because it solved the problem of a portion in the middle that didn't get cooked and would often remain raw.

The hole allow the whole donut to be cooked more evenly and requires less time.

It was thought they were the invention of sea captains who would put them on the ships wheel during rough seas.

It also allows the cake to cook completely.

And everyone does it now....

Or maybe it's so you can eat a dozen or so of the "donut holes" and feel like you haven't eaten as many calories as you'd have eaten if you'd had that whole donut.

Resist the temptation.... go do a walk exercise DVD like I did-- then your legs will feel like Jello and have cramps like mine do and you'll forget all about wanting those donuts.
