Ever wonder where the whole "cup of coffee and a donut for breakfast" thing came from? Well, it was originally derived from the "olykoek," which was a Dutch breakfast pastry, literally "oil cake." It was fried in lard, which is much healthier than the carcinogenic seed oils used today, and much larger and filling. One could actually be considered a meal, and you didn't need to scarf a dozen down just to feel satiated.
The Dutch weren't the only ones with this idea. In parts of Central Europe (mainly Poland) you also had the "pączki," which was stuffed with pork and (again) fried with pork lard. Again, an actual breakfast food.
It wasn't until around the early 1920's when (((Adolph Levitt))) created a machine that could take a cheap dough mix and mass produce fried rings in cheap unhealthy oil, a literal tub of it that just cycled itself over and over. Later on, shabbos goy Charles Entenmann further changed the recipe by using cake dough and that's what caused the 70's craze that's last till today. It's literal fried cake in a shape that doesn't look like cake.
You can still find actual breakfast donuts in certain places today. A lot of authentic French bakeries produce them, and they're fairly common in Europe. Just look for "breakfast donuts" or "biscuit donuts" for the real(er) deal.

That still sounds like a modern donut for the most part with the main difference being choice of oil, saying it's bigger and more filling so you don't need to eat as many is retarded as you'd still be eating the same amount since it's all just fried bread.

I doubt you've ever in your life eaten a donut and thought and thought well of your action after the fact
