Fun Food Holidays™ Today is May 16th

CDK is the home of the original Fun Food Holidays. This collection of food-related dates was created so every day would be a holiday. We have the most complete and up-to-date collection (even though others have tried to copy us) so check back each day for a new reason to celebrate food!

National Coquilles St. Jacques Day
First, we know what you're thinking: What are Coquilles St. Jacques? Well, they're delicious seafood that you can saute, grill, deep fry, or even eat raw! While it sounds like a religious holiday, National Coquilles St. Jacques Day is a Fun Food Holiday and is rather a good time to prepare a food that you might know by another name -- scallops! And now you know the rest of the story.
May 17 National Cherry Cobbler Day
It's like cherry pie, without all the formality! An intensely delicious dessert that's fairly easy to make, cherry cobbler uses fresh cherries or cherry pie filling, with a loose crust or topping of crumbs, biscuits or cake mix. If you don't prepare many desserts at home, National Cherry Cobbler Day is the right time to give it a try!
May 18 National Cheese Souffle Day
Maybe the slogan for this Fun Food Holiday should be 'A ramekin today for your cheese souffle.' From the French verb meaning 'to puff up,' most souffles owe their puffy, airy tops to a meringue made with lots of egg whites. With some two dozen recipes for savory cheese souffles, CDK can help you add pinache to your dinner table. That's French for 'outta sight!'
