Doughnut shops have been described as common in Canada and as a "national institution", and doughnuts have been described as an "unofficial national food." [1] Per capita, the largest concentration of doughnut shops in the world exist in Canada, and Japan has the second-highest concentration per capita. [2] Per capita, Canadians eat the most doughnuts compared to all world countries. [3] The large number of Tim Hortons restaurants in Canada (over 4,600) significantly contributes to this consumption rate. [3]

United States

Within the United States, the Providence metropolitan area was cited as having the most doughnut shops per capita (25.3 doughnut shops per 100,000 people) as of January 13, 2010. [4] Many doughnut shops, such as U.S. national chains, serve coffee as an accompaniment to doughnuts. [5] [6]
