National Pickle Day
November 14
National Pickle Day recognizes the tart, sometimes sweet, and even spicy pickle. Each year on November 14th, pickle lovers pop open pecks of their preferred preserved pickle. It may be a Dill, Gherkin, Cornichon, Brined, Kosher Dill, Polish, Hungarian, Lime, Bread and Butter, Swedish and Danish, or Kool-Aid Pickle. No matter your choice, eat them all day long.
Origin: The first National Pickle Day was celebrated in New York City in 1949. The Pickle Packers Association, which has since been renamed Pickle Packers International, created the holiday as part of International Pickle Week. The holiday has been celebrated for 70 years, but the founder is unknown.
