Oh you mean [proprietary brand name]? Haha can you tell I'm from Canada just by how easily it is to market dumb shit to me?

This is done in the US as well, with a different brand name

I've never heard anyone call them "munchkins" as a generic term, personally

wait what are they in america? i've only ever heard them called donut holes

[–] Frivolous_Beatnik@hexbear.net 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

They're just donut holes as far as I know, but we have genericized trademarks like Kleenex, Jello, and Band-Aids. Depending on your region people will call soda Coke, etc etc
