Burns offers to keep supplying his own donuts in exchange for a pay cut which the employees cheerfully agree to. As Homer is unable to control his donut eating habits, Marge and other townspeople demand a town Health Commission to determine the safety of the power plant donuts. With the help of Fat Tony, Burns hooks most of Springfield on the donuts and they become immensely popular.

After a short while, the power plant employees become obese and unable to work productively so Burns reduces the addictiveness and level of fat in the donuts.
