Default National US Days

September 5, 2012 is
National Cheese Pizza Day

Today is National Cheese Pizza Day! Did you know that Americans eat approximately 350 slices of pizza per second? Whether you prefer thin crust, deep dish, or regular style, today's the day to celebrate one of the most popular meals in the country.

In the 1800s, most Italians thought of pizza as a peasant meal. That changed when a baker named Raffaele Esposito created a margarita pizza for visiting royalty. The king and queen were impressed by the colors of the Italian flag represented by the pizza's white mozzarella cheese, red tomato sauce, and green basil. Pizza became fashionable overnight and was soon a staple in restaurants all across the country.

Today, there are hundreds of different pizza types and toppings, but they all originated with the classic cheese pizza. To celebrate National Cheese Pizza Day, head to your favorite pizza place or make your own homemade pizza for dinner tonight.

Pizza is a food group of it's own.

National Coffee Ice Cream Day

Today is National Coffee Ice Cream Day! According to IceCream.com's flavorology, coffee ice cream lovers are lively, dramatic, and flirtatious. Sound familiar? They also say that you are most compatible with those who prefer strawberry ice cream.

Did you know that approximately one third of coffee ice cream eaters do not drink coffee? This isn't all that surprising since the flavor can be quite different depending on the brand. One of the most popular brands for coffee ice cream is Haagen Dazs. Pick up a pint today in honor of National Coffee Ice Cream Day!

Boobies are best on their own, although they are also good coated in chocolate syrup, peanut butter or cool whip.

Or any topping of your choice.

Salami Day

Today is Salami Day! Salami is cured sausage that has been fermented and air-dried. Countries like Italy, France, Hungary, Germany, and Spain each produce their own style of salami. The varieties differ in the coarseness or fineness of the chopped meat as well as the size and style of the casing.

Although the exact origin of salami is unknown, there is evidence that fermented sausage has been made in the Mediterranean region for more than 2,000 years. Both the Romans and Greeks cured their meat so that the final product could be stored at room temperature for up to ten years without going bad.

The way in which salami is fermented has many natural health benefits. For example, the final product contains lactic acid bacteria, which can help maintain a healthy digestive system. To celebrate Salami Day, enjoy some delicious salami on a sandwich, in a salad, or on its own!
