National Doughnut Day

Posted by John Farrier in Food & Drinks on June 5, 2009 at 4:19 pm


Today is indeed a high holy day: National Doughnut Day. Its origins lie in the distribution of free doughnuts to American soldiers during the First World War, and then acquired greater fame with the sponsorship of the Salvation Army in 1938. Now it’s mostly a marketing gimmick, but do we really need a reason to celebrate? Get thee to a bakery.
