Foodimentary: Celebrating 365 Food Holidays with Classic Recipes

by John-Bryan Hopkins

Overview

Tired of the sporadic and outdated food holidays that were quietly celebrated each year—most of which were created by food companies to market their products—blogger John-Bryan Hopkins decided to revamp food celebrations and spice them up with his own favorite foods. Creating a food holiday for every day of the year, Hopkins launched Foodimentary.com, which became an immediate overnight success with Google adopting his bespoke calendar. With thousands of fans across multiple platforms, Foodimentary.com is the number-one go-to resource cited by numerous magazines, newspapers, and websites to definitively know which food is being celebrated and when.

Mixing Hopkins’ online success with fun food facts, forgotten histories, and classic recipes, while folding in scrumptious illustrations and rare photographs, Foodimentary is a festive jubilee of America’s culinary roots and inventions, from today’s more recent novelties, such as Ranch Dressing Day (celebrated on March 10), to popular dishes of yesteryear such as National Thermidor Day (celebrated on January 24). Whether enjoyed à la carte or consumed in one sitting, get ready to be swept into a twelve-month course created exclusively by Foodimentary.com!

Editorial Reviews

Inspired by the food blog of the same name, Foodimentary provides food holidays for each day of the
year, along with some traditional recipes. Hopkins has been a food blogger (and social-media presence)
since 2005 and is now a leading source for national food holidays and celebrations.—Booklist
