One of the American Classics - Apple Pie...or anything with apples for that matter!! The apple is good any day any time. Bobbing apples at Halloween. Candied apples at the carnival. Apple pancakes or apple dumplings for breakfast. Slices of apple with cheddar cheese at snack time. Apple cobbler for dessert after dinner on a fall evening. Oh, my! The list could go on and on and on. Ready for an apple or apple something? Via Sharla Shults

"When it comes to classifying food as to whether liked or disliked, it all comes down to taste. Sweet. Salty. Sour. Savory. Spicy. Bitter. These are primarily the basics and of course, there exists any combination thereof. Bottom line...it's all about individual taste and flavor, the two of which are often treated as synonyms. Those up for grabs and celebration on this day are... First up...the salty! September 13 is... National Peanut Day Second up...the sour! September 13 is... Snack a Pickle Time" Via Sharla Shults

"Something Creamy, Tangy & Sweet became the center of attention when celebrated in April on National Cherry Cheesecake Day. Then, Oh, my! Pie! Pie! Pie! to Cobbler! Cobbler! Cobbler! spotlighted the month of May with National Cherry Cobbler Day. Sweet or Sour...Tarts & Strudel were the highlight when Cherry Tart Day occurred in June on the same day as Apple Strudel Day. WOW! And the cherry goodness did not end there. It continued into August, twice already: Any way you slice it...YUM! featured National Spumoni Day, which combined three layers of flavor—chocolate, pistachio and cherry, and Cherry Reigns Supreme brought out the child in each of us on National Cherry Popsicle Day. August 28 is... National Cherry Turnover Day" Via Sharla Shults

"Do you ever get tired of ice cream days? Not me, especially during the summer! I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream! What is so 'cool' is not only the vast number of ice cream celebrations but also those that claim more that just one day to celebrate. On August 10, Let's Split provided a whole day to enjoy the scrumptious banana split! Did you indulge or miss it? Either way you get a second chance for the screaming hasn't stopped!

Gummy worms fall in one of two categories...love 'em or hate 'em! Kids love 'em for sure, so does that mean the adults hate 'em? For some, yes; for others, definitely no! They are sweet, they are chewy, but they notoriously stick to your teeth! A bigger question might be "What makes sugar, gelatin and flavorful 'worms' so irresistible, especially for kids?" The truth is... Via Sharla Shults

The word for today is "praline". No other spelling other than p-r-a-l-i-n-e. How you pronounce it is an entirely different and somewhat debatable subject matter. Pray-leen, praw-line or prah-lean? In the good ol' USA, the most acceptable pronunciation is "pray-leen". You know...just like something you do in church. Along the East Coast of Georgia, it's pronounced "praw-line" if you please. In Louisiana and along the Gulf Coast, the tendency leans more toward the southern “prah-leen” because of the French cultural influence in the area. The candy's namesake after all is du Plessis-Praslin, a 17th century French nobleman. No matter how you pronounce it, praline candy makes for a mighty fine treat. Via Sharla Shults

Did you find pudding in your school lunchbox or do you put pudding packs in your kid's lunchbox? After all, it is a staple when growing up. In years' past, it was not an everyday item but instead a special treat where at first sight of a tiny little spoon you knew what was awaiting your taste's pleasure. Via Sharla Shults

"The Macadamia Nut is one of Australia’s few contributions to the world’s food plants, and this rich, buttery nut is considered by many to be the most delicious of all nuts. The macadamia tree originated in Australia. It was introduced into the United States in Hawaii around 1881 and used ornamentally. The first commercial orchards of macadamias in Hawaii were not planted until 1921. September 4 is... National Macadamia Nut Day" Via Sharla Shults

Summer is rapidly coming to a close but temperatures are still sizzlin' HOT! That being the case begs treats and snacks that are a bit on the cool side...icees, ice cream, ice cream sandwiches, cones, sodas, floats, banana splits and sundaes, frozen yogurt, creamsicles, etc. Of course, that is just the beginning of a really long list. Let's just stop there and move on to the celebration of the day. Via Sharla Shults

If the title of this posting had been 'Cake', there would be no question as to what it is about. There are thousands of different types of cakes in the world today, each culture with its own specialties, many of which never reach America's shores. For the cake, we need icing and one might want to try something different perhaps topping it off with penuche frosting. That's one possibility for penuche. Let's add a little extra pizazz to the title: Penuche Fudge. Now, let's get on with the celebration! Via Sharla Shults

Grab a glass or perhaps even a Mason jar. This glass is not to be filled with a beverage but a foodie considered the perfect way to end the day. If all ingredients are not on hand, it's not too late for a quick grocery store run. After all, this is a prime example why some stores are called 'convenient'! You will need granola, nuts, yogurt or pudding, fresh fruits, and whipped cream. If you are not into granola, bits of cookies could be added for extra crunch. There is even a way to watch those calories. Cottage cheese can be substituted for the whipped cream or even your favorite flavored Jello. Whatever you choose, get ready to just layer it!

"When eating a sandwich, one of the most often partners is that munchy, crunchy potato chip goodness! The perfect match. As the sandwich's best buddy, there is just one problem: It's as bad as peanuts - Betcha can't eat just one!" Via Sharla Shults
Skuuppilehdet's insight:
One of sandwiches best accompaniments, as well as one of the world's best-loved snacks, is being celebrated definitely with a grain of salt! More that just a grain is added to make this salty snack more and more desirable. Bet you can't eat just one! Yep! We are talking about the potato chip, which has been around since the 19th century. With today being Potato Chip Day, let's step back in time to the first chip off the ol' potato.
