Fun Food Holidays
Do you love the holidays and all the foods that are an integral part of the celebration? Do you miss the holiday season when it is over? Well, did you know that it is a holiday almost every day of the year?
You can celebrate with your favorite foods almost every day thanks to National Food Holidays such as National Chocolate Day or National Ice Cream Day.
How are food holidays created? Usually a company or association connected to the food in question petitions the government for a calendar day commemorating their product to raise awareness and recognition by the general public. So yes, it is a marketing ploy, but does that really matter when you have an excuse to eat delicious food all year long?
A few of my personal favorites are:
- July 21: National Ice Cream Day
- October 28: National Chocolate Day
- December 4: National Cookie Day
Check out a list of National Food Holidays here, and find your excuse to celebrate today.
So that means today is “Something on a Stick Day”…I can eat a corn dog without guilt!
