To make more money they had to do that, just look at Krispy Kreme, arguably the best donuts ever! Remember the small department stores like small kmarts the met etc, had their own donut machines, plain, sugared and cinnamon sugar! You could watch your donuts going around the fryer and walk out with a dozen hot donuts, damn that was good! It ain't rocket science, they are just that greedy! Timmies owns Wendy's now too and their food has gone downhill, especially the chilli!
