Delicious Food Day

Delicious Food Day is an informal excuse to pay attention to the pleasure of eating. A familiar bowl of soup belongs at this celebration just as much as an ambitious new recipe; the point is enjoying what is on your plate.

How it is celebrated: people cook favorites, swap recipes and share a meal. There is no fixed program, so a homemade dinner fits the occasion perfectly.

Much of a food's flavor comes from smell. That is why a blocked nose can make even a much-loved dish seem surprisingly dull.
