Happy Donut Day
The Salvation Army is behind the creation
of this holiday. According to its website, "the first National Donut
Day was celebrated in Chicago in 1938 to help raise needed funds
during the Great Depression and commemorate the work of the “donut
lassies” who helped make the donut what it is today by feeding the
tasty confection to American soldiers during WWI." In modern times,
companies like Entemann’s are donating a portion of their donut
profits to the Salvation Army. Canadians eat more donuts
per capita than any other country.
