Fun Foodie Holidays in January 2022

Happy Foodie Friday! This week I decided to share a list of Fun Foodie Holidays in January 2022. I know January isn’t here yet, but it soon will be. How else will we celebrate these holidays if we don’t know about them ahead of time? And don’t we need time to prepare?

I’ve always been intrigued by the concept of National months and days. Who creates these holidays? Why do they make them? And most of all, how do they celebrate these days? To celebrate a few of these holidays, I will try to compile posts for the month. That way you can celebrate as well.

I compiled this list of holidays from a much more extensive list at National Day Calendar. For more information about each holiday, click on the name, and it will give you more details about that holiday. The holidays that are in italics are international celebrations.

National Months in January

Looking at the monthly celebrations in January, they make perfect sense. At least in the northern hemisphere, where it’s cold and yucky!

• Hot Tea Month
• Oatmeal Month
• Slow Cooking Month
• Soup Month
• Sunday Supper Month

National Weeks in January

I love looking at the national weeks and seeing how some seem to cancel out others like Pizza Week follows Diet Resolution Week, and it just feels a little ironic to me. Then again, they could work well together depending on which kind of diet you decide to follow.

• Diet Resolution Week – January 2-8
• Mocktail Week – January 9-15
• Pizza Week – January 9-15
• Fresh Squeezed Juice Week – January 16-22
• Meat Week – January 30-February 6

National Days in January

So that is the complete list of Fun Foodie Holidays in January 2022. Which one will you try to celebrate this month? My daughter is excited about her birthday because it shares a holiday with one of her favorite foods. Are there any holidays you would like me to create a post around? Let me know in the comments below.
