Psycho Donuts
Psycho Donuts is a donut shop in Campbell, California, owned by Jordan Zweigoron and opened in March 2009. The theme of the shop is "craziness": it specializes in unusual donut flavors and many donuts' names are puns on mental illnesses or other mental health conditions, and the store's decorations include a straitjacket and padded cell.〔 〕 It has been the subject of controversy because mental health advocates claim its theme promotes negative stereotypes of people with mental illnesses.
==Description==
The shop was opened by Jordan Zweigoron and Kipp Berdianski in March 2009. Berdiansky left the partnership in late July, leaving Zweigoron as the sole owner.
Psycho Donuts describes itself as a shop that "has taken donuts to the next demented level" and "has taken the neighborhood donut and put it on medication, and given it shock treatment".〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=About Psycho Donuts )〕 Its products have unusual toppings such as pretzels and Froot Loops,〔 and many of the donuts' names are puns on mental health conditions—for example, there are donuts called "Bipolar", "Manic Malt", and "Cereal Killer"—although several also have names unrelated to mental illness, such as "Donut Fries", "S'Mores", and "Crispy Critters". Some refer to other serious medical conditions, such as "Massive Head Trauma".〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Donuts )〕 The shop's decor also has a psychiatric institution theme: it includes a straitjacket and padded room, an eating area called "Group Therapy", and the staff wear lab coats or nurse uniforms. Zweigoron describes the store's atmosphere as that of a "fun mental institution".〔 〕
Psycho Donuts opened a second location in San Jose in September 2010.
