Dunkin' Donuts started in Quincy Massachusetts in 1950.
This is what the original Dunkin' Donut looked like - it had a handle on it - for dunking your donut into a cup of coffee. (This also explains why Quincy was the home of the space program)
Brilliant!

Tim Horton didn't come along for another 14 years, in a place called Hamilton.... Their donuts were shaped like hockey pucks - yeah, not too original - pretty good, but no handles.
Remember, coffee shops and donut shops are the #1 destination for scooter riders, strap hangers and assorted loafers.

You get an early start - you can get the Day-Olds at 1/2 price!

Very interesting bit of history there, Stig...
Remember, those people who dislike history, are those who had bad history teachers...
