National Doughnut Day is on the first Friday of June every year. Of course, the holiday celebrates something most of us love – the donut. Most countries around the world have donuts. They usually come in two forms. Some are ring-shaped and covered with sugar, chocolate or other sugary things. Others are shaped like slightly flat tennis balls and filled with jam, apple sauce or similarly 1 sweet fillings. In most cities around the world, it is very easy to find a donut shop where you can sit down with friends and eat your favourite kinds of donut. It is almost a part of modern youth culture. Dunkin Donuts is probably the most famous, but new chains like Krispy Kreme are making a big impact 2 in the donut world.


National Doughnut Day started in 1938 as a charity event. The aim was to raise money for the needy 3 during America’s Great Depression. A secondary 4 reason was to honor 5 American women who served doughnuts to U.S. soldiers fighting in France. Conditions were difficult to cook sweets for the soldiers so the women came up with the idea of making doughnuts. The soldiers loved them. They even made doughnuts cooked in oil inside the metal helmets of soldiers. No one knows why they are called donuts. They are definitely 6 not nuts. Perhaps this Donut Day you can discuss the history of donuts and why there are two spellings, while sampling some new flavours and tastes. Or perhaps, just stick to your favourites.
