If the nascent Universe had no spin, it would probably have developed more like a bombe. Not sure if that fits in with the Standard Cosmological Model of bakery analogs.
The donut concept does make a lot of sense. If the universe has been expanding at a constant rate, there shouldn’t be anything in the middle. Same concept as an explosion. In fact, the hole should be getting larger and larger.

Dr. Mel’s comment/thought about this should have been more like that the universe being shape like a donut “wasn’t crazy or absurd enough”.

OK the correct term is torus and it applies to donuts, crullers, and also coffee cups.

It’s shaped like a toroidal coil. Everyone knows that.

I think that’s enough of the universe as a doughnut shape subject in this comic.

I’ve heard that there’s a black hole at the center of our galaxy, so I’m guessing it looks more like an angel food cake.
