churro

Fried dough rod

A churro is a fried dough pastry, typically long and ridged, coated in cinnamon sugar.

Originally Spanish, churros are popular street food throughout Latin America and increasingly worldwide.

They're often served with chocolate sauce for dipping: We grabbed churros from a vendor outside the stadium.
