You’re a doughnut

A not very pretty one either. Technically, you’re a torus ,a superset of doughnuts. Your doughnut hole is your alimentary canal. Take a crayon and swallow it marking your esophagus and intestines until you come out your anus. Keep the crayon on the surface, which is now your skin and trace your way back to your mouth. You’ve just traced a path on the surface of a torus. Everything inside of that surface is the edible part of you (Remember. You’re a doughnut, not as well formed as we expect doughnuts to be, but maybe still pretty tasty)
But wait. There’s more. Mathematicians have shown that it’s possible to turn a torus inside out without making any cuts to the surface. Here’s a video to give you the idea:
So the point I’m trying to make is if we could plasticize your body so we could shape you like a conventional doughnut, turn you inside out with no cuts to your exterior, what would that look like? Especially if you were then unplasticized. Not pretty I’m thinking.
You could disappear in plain sight by turning yourself inside out.
Theoretically.
I write this hoping the idea expressed will find a place to reside outside my brain.
