I can walk into any donut shop and I already know what I want. If you can't do that I suspect you're some kind of foreign agent who isn't familiar with what you might find in a donut shop.

BTW, it's apple fritters, and I'll have three, thanks.

    That three finger thing is bullshit. In UK/Germany, people do whatever not some rote thing

    In 1942? Not fair to compare modern habits with an isolated per-internet world.

    To my eternal dismay, all the donut shops in my town stopped making buttermilk bars, so I have to go in with a "stretch" donut and have a safety donut (old-fashioned glazed) as my most likely order.

    The hell is a buttermilk bar? I am intrigued 👀

    It's like an old-fashioned (usually glazed) more in a bar shape than a traditional donut shape. I would assume that they have buttermilk in the recipe, but I don't don't really know the specifics other than than they have a bit more of a "sour cream" tang than a regular old-fashioned.
