The saying comes from East London and the term stems from the word dough-nut!
When doughnuts first came to the U.K you could get some with sugar and some without and hence the term.
I hope this helps.

No idea, but Sweet F.A. comes from the murder of an 8yr old girl called (sweet) Fanny Adams - she was murdered, cut into pieces and thrown in to the river Wey (at the same time the English navy changed their rations to low-grade tins of sweetened chopped up mutton.....the sailors started the term in reference to their meat being akin to the murdered girl! Which is nice!
