  No they’re not. At Tim Horton’s their special branded version are called “Timbits”, but everyone knows the term “doughnut holes” and unless they’re specifically talking about the kind from Tim Horton’s they won’t use that term.

    Um, actually you’re wrong. It’s the same phenomenon as kleenex. Every Canadian refers to them as timbits. Not doughnut holes.

      Is it a regional thing? Like Southern US folks calling all fizzy soda pop drinks regardless of brand “Coke”

        It’s like kleenex, Tim’s brought them around so everyone just refers to them as tidbits. I didn’t even know what a doughnut hole was till my friend from New York told me.
