When is National Popcorn Day?

Posted on 15:26 by Unknown
It can be difficult keeping track of the dates of national holidays when it’s hard enough to remember special anniversaries and loved ones’ birthdays. Starting today, for certain searches where you’re looking for the date of a particular holiday or celebration, you’ll be able to quickly find out the answer right on your search results page, whether it’s Labor Day or National Popcorn Day.


This currently works for certain future and past national and religious holidays, internationally recognized days such as World AIDS Day, and designated days to celebrate fun things like popcorn and cookies in the U.S.

Speaking of which, it’s time to start looking for great cheesecake recipes, as National Cheesecake Day is just around the corner!
