Costco and Walmart both sell donuts and ask for receipts. I don't know if they would actually check for a small purchase but you never know.

This is the most productive argument I've ever had.

Which is really just the first scenario (walking out of the donut shop and being accused of theft) in a trench coat. That scenario has already been covered, so my original “that’s pretty much the only two reasons” statement still applies.

OK, and I'm agreeing with you on that, but I think that those two reasons are important enough to be worth getting a receipt.

Costco has the donut's ultimate evolution: the churro

A churro is actually closer to a funnel cake, as you start with a choux paste which is piped into oil. Donuts are traditionally leavened with yeast before being deep fried.

Leavening is not that important when you're talking about pastries. I would put churros, funnel cake and doughnuts all into the same family.

Leavening is incredibly important when talking about pastries. It's what makes a cronut a cronut and not a donut

You're an absolute madman and I respect that
