I kind of had a hunch the "chop suey" doughnuts were a conglomeration. Thanks for the info, Huh! :)

Chop suey donuts were made from all the other leftover donut dough all mixed together.

LOL "Huh!" I've never had "Chop Suey Donuts" before, but they sure come highly recommended according to the excited posts. What are they made of? (I wonder if the Cedar Rapids site will ship out-of-state?)

A patron review from 2009 mentions "Chop Suey Donuts" so they are probably still available. ROAD TRIP! ;-p

I agree green! The first thing I thought of when I saw that photo was a Chop Suey Doughnut!
