As if American’s weren’t obese enough… we’ve got National Doughnut Day!

National Doughnut Day is on the first Friday of June each year. The holiday celebrates the doughnut, an edible, ring-shaped piece of dough which is deep-fried and sweetened.

National Doughnut Day started in 1938 as a fund raiser for the Chicago Salvation Army. [Wikipedia]
