📌 Notes & Tips
- Many food days are informal observances (especially in the U.S. and Canada) and may vary slightly by organizer or region.
- You can find more daily food celebration calendars online (e.g., nationaldaycalendar.com or awarenessdays.com) if you want a full 365‑day list for themed content or cooking projects.
- For social media planning, combining these food days with seasonal produce (e.g., strawberry days in June) can be especially effective.
