Fun Food Holidays™ October 12th is National Gumbo Day

A Creole adaptation of French bouillabaisse, gumbo typically contains celery, onion, green peppers, and perhaps shrimp, crawfish, sausage, or chicken. Like many imports to arrive in New Orleans, this spicy stew has gone from Southern specialty to national prominence.
