For some background: National Doughnut Day was first established by the Chicago Salvation Army in 1938. Initially, the holiday originated in honor of women who served doughnuts to soldiers during World War I. Now a nationally-recognized day around the country, the first Friday of June celebrates all types of doughnuts — and, of course, their fans around the world.
