What? They’re donut holes, Timbits is only from Tim hortons, that’s a trademark name.

It would be like calling all breakfast sandwiches McMuffins dude.

There's plenty of examples of trademark names being used generically. Coke, hoover, Jacuzzi

Which isn’t the case with donut holes, it used to be because Tim hortons was the only place, that’s stopped being changed over a decade ago.
