ROCKWALL, TX (Sept. 30, 2022) October is an easy month to celebrate. It’s the beginning of fall, State Fair season, high school football, cooler weather. But it also boasts a list of food holidays!
At this point, you may be wondering what a food holiday is. Well, it’s a real-life designated holiday made to celebrate certain foods. You can honor these foods by trying out a new recipe, going to your favorite restaurant or even tasting it for the very first time. Any excuse to eat good food and have a bash with your people!
I’ve compiled a list of the best October food holidays; some days even have multiple foods! Happy celebrating!!
