I always get confused whenever they say jelly , because in the uk we call it jam and what you call jello is what we call jelly

No It's not. It's free marketing, Nike spends millions endorsing sports celebrities in order to boost sales and keep the brand fresh. In this day and age is good business for a small doughnut shop to have Seth Rogen coming down for a goodie and in return he gets some freebies. (I'm sure he did not ask for It, money is not an issue for him anymore)

I don't know why I watch these when I have Celiac Disease and food allergies. I guess I don't wanna miss out on the videos lol when I was a kid my favorite donuts were jelly filled I never liked "dry" donuts they always had to have cream or a filling of some kind.
Horror story time The other day I went to a donut shop I bought a donut with jelly filling and powdered sugar I went home I opened the little paper bag Took my donut out And bit into it to find out THERE WAS NO JELLY INSIDE😭💔

Munchkins is the trademark name for donut holes Dunkin Donuts uses. Just like Tim Horton's uses the trademark name of Timbits for donut holes. The generic name is actually a donut hole.
