the secret knowledgeI think the deep lore is something like in the lockdown times the cart served donuts for how many donut (zero) days we had. Then the days of freedom came and the cart evolved into the full breakfast spread but there are no more donuts.

Have read several murder mysteries where the beignets were the killer - arsenic in the powdered sugar. And on one occasion Mrs omitted to add the usual arsenic to the sugar and Mr (abusive) died of the withdrawal symptoms. No evidence of poison he he. Mrs was smart.
