Many bakeries and doughnut shops are participating in a 100-year-old celebration.

What's National Doughnut Day?
Who you ask matters, but luckily doughnut lovers may have two times a year to indulge.
In June, the first Friday is typically called Doughnut Day. It began in 1938 in Chicago to celebrate the Salvation Army "Lassies." These women gave doughnuts and coffee to soldiers during World War I.
Doughnut Day number two happens in November on the fifth. People think it has the same military history as the first one. It's possible that a store picked the day because it's close to Veteran's Day. That's on November 11.
