SUMMARY:Curried Chicken Day
DESCRIPTION:A favorite dish of Indians and Britons\, as well as people from other places throughout the world\, like the Caribbean and Asia\, curried chicken offers a delicious and comforting blend of flavors. National Curried Chicken Day is here to pay respect to this yummy dish that is a favorite craving by so many. \n History states that soldiers stationed in India during the British rule were craving for this delicacy and started including it on their menus.

SUMMARY:Bittersweet Chocolate Day
DESCRIPTION:Today is Bittersweet Chocolate Day! Bittersweet chocolate is a sweetened form of dark chocolate made with cocoa liquor\, sugar\, cocoa butter\, and vanilla. Unlike milk chocolate or white chocolate\, it does not contain any milk solids. \nChocolate comes from the seed of the tropical Theobroma cacao tree. Cacao\, which has been cultivated for at least three millennia\, is grown in Mexico\, Central America\, and Northern South America. The earliest known documentation of the use of cacao seeds is around 1100 BC. The cacao tree seed has an intensely bitter taste and must be fermented to develop the flavor.

SUMMARY:National Apricot Day
DESCRIPTION:Apricots ripen in the early summer\, but they’re quite commonly dried so that way we can enjoy them year-round. The word ‘apricot’ in Latin purportedly means “precious”\, but further investigation reveals that while this moniker is appropriate\, it actually comes from Arabic ‘al barqūq’ (“early ripe”) via French ‘abricot’. \nApricots are found the world over but originated in northeastern China near the Russian border in ancient times. Later\, the fruit was introduced to Europe and Armenia.

SUMMARY:National English Toffee Day
DESCRIPTION:On January 8th\, National English Toffee Day celebrates a favored confection that’s been enjoyed across the country for generations. This sweet treat comes with some confusion concerning the difference between English toffee and just plain toffee. \nEnglish toffee originates in the U.K. during the 19th century\, and the earliest record of toffee is in 1825.

SUMMARY:National Tempura Day
DESCRIPTION:On January 7th\, National Tempura Day encourages us to celebrate with a dish made with a tempura batter. This Japanese fare includes either seafood or vegetables dipped in batter and deep-fried. \nOrigin: Where did tempura originate? No one really knows. What we do know is back in 1549\, Portuguese sailors arrived in Japan and introduced a way of battering and frying food that is now infused into the culture.

SUMMARY:National Bean Day
DESCRIPTION:The day commemorates the death of the geneticist Gregor Mendel\, whose experiments with breeding pea plants formed the basis of modern genetics. From what we could find\, it would appear that Paula Bowen is the creator of National Bean Day. \nNational Bean Day is celebrated annually on January 6th. It’s an unofficial holiday that honors the bean\, a versatile food that’s been around since ancient times.

SUMMARY:Apple Tree Day
DESCRIPTION:Apple Tree Day started off as a celebration of an old apple tree\, which had been around for two centuries. As time went on\, this day morphed into a celebration of the fruit itself. \nOriginating in Central Asia\, apples then made their way to Europe where they grew for many years before European colonists brought them over to North America during the 17th century. It is possible that apple trees are the oldest tree to have been cultivated.

SUMMARY:National Whipped Cream Day
DESCRIPTION:This holiday falls on Reddi-Wip founder Aaron “Bunny” Lapin’s birthday (January 5\, 1914 – July 10\, 1999). Lapin invented Reddi-Wip in 1948\, and the holiday celebrates whipped cream’s contributions to the dessert world. \nThe earliest known literary references to whipped cream seem to date back to 1629 in France (crème fouettée) and 1673 in England. National Whipped Cream Day is actually a nod to pay homage to the birthday of Reddi-wip founder Aaron Lapin\, who was born in 1914.

SUMMARY:National Chocolate Covered Cherry Day
DESCRIPTION:U.S. National Chocolate Covered Cherry Day on January 3 is for celebrating that combo that just naturally seems to go together\, cherries and chocolate. \nDuring the 1700s in England\, cherries were enclosed in chocolate with a little kirsch (cordial) liqueur. After finding their way to the United States\, Americans began delighting in the little bit of alcoholic cordial surrounding the fruit dipped in chocolate.

SUMMARY:Fruitcake Toss Day
DESCRIPTION:Let’s be honest: nobody really likes fruitcake\, and nobody ever really eats it\, either. Heavy\, flavorless and always too sweet\, fruitcake is one of our century’s biggest holiday jokes. So when Christmas is over\, and you’ve taken the tinsel down\, and thrown out the tree\, what should you do with that old fruitcake that you’ve been using to prop open the door/to replace a missing limb/as a headrest? National Fruitcake Toss Day has a “fruitful” answer (see what we did there?). The event\, which is reported as having originated in Manitou Springs\, Colorado\, was created in order to help people get rid of unwanted fruitcake after Christmas \n

SUMMARY:National Bloody Mary Day
DESCRIPTION:National Bloody Mary Day celebrates the drinking of the Bloody Mary cocktail\, which is described by some as the perfect hangover cure–despite the fact that it happens to contain the very thing that made the person hung over in the first place: alcohol! \nOrigin: Popular theory puts the Bloody Mary’s birthplace in Paris in 1921\, where Fernand “Pete” Petiot\, bartender at Harry’s New York Bar (then known as The New York Bar)\, was credited with creating an alcoholic tomato juice cocktail spiced with some salt and pepper and a couple of dashes of Worcestershire sauce.
