SUMMARY:Chocolate Cake Day
DESCRIPTION:National Chocolate Cake Day celebrates the cake more people favor. And more often than not\, we celebrate our special occasions like anniversaries\, birthdays and weddings with cake. Why not enjoy chocolate cake on January 27th every year? \nIn America\, chocolate was consumed primarily as a beverage until the 1830s or 40s. Chocolate cakes\, as we think of them today\, mostly did not exist then. According to the Dover Post\, the chocolate cake was born in 1765 when a doctor and a chocolate maker teamed up in an old mill. They ground up cocoa beans between huge millstones to make a thick syrup. The liquid was poured into molds shaped like cakes\, which were meant to be transformed into a beverage. A popular Philadelphia cookbook author\, Eliza Leslie\, published the earliest chocolate cake recipe in 1847 in The Lady’s Receipt Book. Unlike chocolate cakes we know today\, this recipe used chopped chocolate. Other cooks of the time such as Sarah Tyson Rorer and Maria Parloa all made contributions to the development of the chocolate cake and were prolific authors of cookbooks.

SUMMARY:National Hot Buttered Rum Day

SUMMARY:National Bootlegger's Day
DESCRIPTION:Templeton Rye Whiskey shares its January 17th birthday with bootlegger Al Capone and the son of another bootlegger\, Meryl Kerkhoff.During the 1800s\, the term bootlegger came into use in the Midwest. The word described the act of concealing flasks of liquor in a boot top when going to trade with Native Americans. The term found its permanent place in the American vocabulary when Congress passed the Eighteenth Amendment prohibiting the manufacture\, transportation\, and sale of alcohol in 1920. \nThe first observance of National Bootlegger’s Day was in 2015\, instated by Infinium Spirits to celebrate the birth of Templeton Rye\, a whiskey distilled by farmers in Templeton\, Iowa\, during the heights of the prohibition.

SUMMARY:Rid the World of Fad Diets & Gimmicks Day
DESCRIPTION:What is Rid the World of Fad Diets and Gimmicks Day? Rid the World of Fad Diets and Gimmicks Day is celebrated on the third Tuesday of January each year in the U.S. to widely promote proper weight management by exercising and eating healthy food. \nIn the mid-1800s\, the ideal masculine and feminine beauty gravitated toward thinness. Overweight romantics got the short end of the fashion stick as clothing became form-fitting for both sexes.From 1850 to 1920\, women’s dresses required a tiny laced-in waist. Men wore tights or breeches with tight-fitting jackets until close to the end of the 19th century when the vogue switched to looser pants. Being overweight was such a social handicap at the time that a book published in 1881 even suggested that governments arrest and imprison overweight people.
