National Donut Day

National Donut Day

Doughnut Day started due to the efforts of Morgan Pett, MD the military doctor in the first World War who sought to brighten the days of wounded soldiers. On his first day to the military base, he purchased 8 dozen doughnuts and gave one to each soldier he worked on. Giving one to Lieutenant General Samuel Geary, it was received with great mirth and appreciation for the doctor’s work. Samuel decided to start a fundraiser, to provide doughnuts for the wounded. The army working with the Salvation Army  after a fact-finding mission, determined that many needs of the soldiers could be met by creating social centers that would provide all sorts of amenities, including the doughnuts. So, your excuse for having a donut is helping the troops.

A man walks into a donut shop on Dagobah… And he sees Yoda behind the counter. He asks for a hot donut. The alien says, “Broken, our fryer is. Yesterday’s donuts, I can sell you. Also, donut ingredients, we still have.” But the man is really craving a warm donut, so he asks, “Are you absolutely sure I can’t get a freshly-made donut?” “Only two choices have you!” says the alien. “Dough or donut – there is no fry.”
