If you love cartoons as much as we do, you’ve probably wondered what some famous cartoon foods actually taste like. What is actually IN Scooby Snacks? Would you add Popeye’s spinach to your artichoke dip? What’s the carb count on a Pac-Dot? Krispy Kreme has decided to put something to rest once and for all. We will now be able to understand why Homer Simpson drools over those pink doughnuts so much with the release of the Simpsons “D’ohnut.”
Comic Book Resources reported that Krispy Kremes and 7-11’s in Australia will be selling the trademark doughnut. From the picture, it looks like it’s a sugar lover’s dream, with a cake doughnut covered in glaze, which is then covered with the classic pink frosting and sprinkles. Our mouths water just thinking about those multi-packs with the powered, cinnamon, and plain doughnuts. The D’ohnut could put us in a food coma that any Thanksgiving meal would be jealous of.
If you happen to get your D’ohnut at 7-11, it comes in a cool packaging, with Homer swimming is a sea of them. We’re not sure what the shelf life of these are, so we can’t really recommend you buy one to eat and one to collect. We don’t think dessert follows the same protocol as comic books or action figures. Here’s hoping that the D’ohnuts popularity is such a hit in Australia that it makes its way to America so everyone can say “MMMMMM…DONUT” together in unison.
So what do you think? Are you excited about the possibility of enjoying the same doughnuts Homer has for years? Let me know on Twitter @donnielederer or avoid taking a bite of the forbidden doughnut in the comments below.
