As Newb insists, Dunkin Donuts made a mini donut before the Canadian donut chain Tim Horton's made theirs.
What most people don't know is the real origon of the name : Tim Bits.
Tim Horton, once a professional NHL hockey player (Toronto Maple Leafs, New York Rangers, Pittsburgh Penguins and Buffalo Sabres) started the successul chain in 1964 in Hamilton Ontario. But Tim Bits weren't introduced until summer of 1974, a few months after his death in a horrific car accident.
They were going to be called Tiny Tim's, but a distraught employee managed to obtain sone of Tim's flesh from what was left of the automobile wreck and baked the 1st several dozen Tiny Tims with a little piece of Tim Horton inside each one. The name was changed to Tim Bits and has been named thusly ever since.
