How Did The "Cops Love Donuts" Stereotype Come About?

[SumoNinja]

I think I got it

it's not just cops that eat donuts. but if you drive by a donut place, you see other people and other cars all the time along with the cruiser and men in uniform. but you don't know what the other people do, but you recognize the cops right away. therefore you always think they are always there when really you just don't know their professions.

and in the 70's and 80's, there wasn't these 24 hour starbucks drive thrus. so these 7-11's or whatever would serve coffee and donuts late for the people who worked late or early. plus having a cop around for the stuff makes them feel safer

/thread?

Around where I'm at, it's the wee hours of the morning when all of the cops seem to hang out at the 24-hour gas stations drinking free coffee. I was told the gas stations give out the free coffee to increase police presence around their locations. It works.

But Sumo...why donuts of all things?..Why not a bearclaw or a honeybun,or maybe even a krimpet?

those are all under the donut umbrella if you ask me

I love donuts but hardly ever eat them

and thanks, now I have a bad craving for one of them, apple clusters or whatever it's called

Mmmmm donuts... I had an old fashioned glazed today. It wasn't very good though.

I have a great donut shop by my house that I go to at least once every 2 weeks.

I don't eat many donuts these days but when I do I prefer Krispy Kreme over Donkin Donuts.
