Fun Facts About Donuts
The food that doubles as a snack and breakfast has a fun and interesting history. Did you know this about donuts?
- Americans make 10 billion donuts every year!
- The name “donut” came because makers placed a nut in the middle of the dough to prevent an uncooked center.
- The biggest holidays for donuts are Halloween and New Year’s Eve. Ever bobbed for donuts on a string before trick-or-treating? In German-American tradition, eating a jelly donut on New Year’s Eve brings luck in the new year.
- Jelly-filled donuts have their own day: June 8. Pace yourself.
- There’s a second National Donut Day, on Nov. 5. Of course!
