The most basic donut, or not?
editWouldn't an "orange and pistachio covered old fashioned donut" be an "orange and pistachio" donut? By describing a donut as the "old fashioned" donut implies the most basic donut type. Calling for the topping a donut has would replace the call for an "old fashioned" donut. It seems to me that asking for an "old fashioned" donut is to emphasize that you want a "donut" with no toppings; i.e. plain. Does that make any sense? Liberty5651 (talk) 21:07, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
Maybe this is just an issue at Dunken' Donuts and that when asking for a doughnut it'd be different. Liberty5651 (talk) 21:09, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
