Doughnuts come in a seemingly endless array of varieties — from glazed to frosted, filled or with sprinkles — and they are all delicious in their own way and deserving of a celebration. Friday, June 4 is National Doughnut Day and it's a great excuse to enjoy the most beloved of pastries. Even better news? There are a bunch of national chains sharing sweet deals and freebies to celebrate all day long.
