Prunes, and their fiber-rich reputation, are usually synonymous with Aunt Esther’s Secret Weapon for Regulation. But in Ocean City—yes, the less cool O.C.—they became affiliated with a legendary fried dough chain, The Fractured Prune. Beachgoers and locals are all about their made-fresh-to-order donuts, which can be dipped in one of sixteen glazes, eight toppings and three sugars. Their mascot, a shades-clad injured prune man (think geriatric cousin of the California Raisins ilk), has announced to Dupont Circle’s P Street that his establishment is “Coming Soon.”

Although we don’t know how long soon is, from what we hear on Chowhound, it’s worth the wait. They started out at as hometown heroes with two locations in Ocean City, began franchising and before long, Food Network caught wind. Now with over fifteen locations, lines are out the door, especially in beachtowns like Rehoboth and Bethany Beach, where people can enjoy a guilt-free vacation breakfast on the sand. Crabs and donuts are even becoming a thing there.
