"There are several purported origins for donut holes and the "ring" shaped donut. The concept of forming donuts with a hole in the center is commonly attributed to Captain Hanson Gregory,[1][2] who claimed to have invented the first ring donut after cutting the center of his mother's donut out in 1847.[3]"

Is that actually true though?

It sounds about as real as leaves on a tree.

I'm unclear if you had a typo, or if I just don't get the joke.

I was trying to make a joke by saying something that is certain, but saying it in a way that made it feel less than certain. I have no idea what the actual answer to your question is, but I thought I might try to be funny. I'm not feeling well. So, I may not be at the top of my game.

No, they meant leaves which is the plural of leaf.
