See, you're trying to use a logical argument here.

Why are knives of any length prohibited by TSA, but scissors under 4 inches (which could easily be converted into knives by popping the hinge) permitted? Heck, why are knives prohibited by TSA when there are plenty of knives already on-board the aircraft in the food service area? Why are flight attendants trusted to bring in big bottles of water when on duty but not when off-duty? Why are knitting needles permitted but ice picks prohibited? Why are drill bits prohibited but short screwdrivers permitted?

So ... in the face of those contradictions, is it that unreasonable to wonder if plain donuts and powdered donuts will be treated differently?
