January 19 Popcorn Day

Today day is January 19 Popcorn Day observed every year, who didn’t like popcorn, and especially when you watch TV or in Movie Theater watching a movie with your friend and family.

Popcorn started becoming popular in the United States in the middle 1800s. The kids at a school in Hebron USA unleashed their creativity in math’s class made popcorn prisms and the junior band learned the ‘Popcorn Prelude’. Americans consume billions of quarts of popcorn a year, more than any other country in the world.

Popcorn has been around for centuries. It is one of six main varieties of corn. (The others are pod, sweet, flour, dent, and flint.) 

Depending on how it is prepared and cooked, some consider popcorn to be a health food, while others caution against it for a variety of reasons. Air-popped popcorn is naturally high in dietary fibre and antioxidants, low in calories and fat, and free of sugar and sodium. This can make it an attractive snack to people with dietary restrictions.

Popcorn can also have non-food applications, ranging from holiday decorations to packaging materials. There are various techniques for popping corn. Along with prepackaged popcorn, which is generally intended to be prepared in a microwave oven, there are small home appliances for popping corn. These methods require the use of minimally processed popping corn. (With material from Wikipedia)

January 11 Step in the Puddle and Splash Your Friends Day

Today day is Step in the Puddle and Splash Your Friends Day observed every year, any kid knows that splashing and jumping into puddles is fun.

A puddle is a small accumulation of liquid, usually water, on a surface. It can form either by pooling in a depression on the surface or by surface tension upon a flat surface. Puddles are usually formed from rain water or from irrigation. A puddle is generally small enough for an adult to step over, shallow enough to walk through, and too small to traverse in a boat or raft.

Puddles commonly form during rain and can cause problems for transport. Due to the angle of the road, puddles tend to be forced by gravity to gather on the edges of the road. This can cause splashing as cars drive through the puddles, which causes water to be sprayed onto pedestrians on the pavement. (With material from Wikipedia)

January 8 Bubble Bath Day

Today day is January 8 Bubble Bath Day observed every year. According to the AC Nielsen Data, Mr Bubble is the brand of bath products in the United States and in 2011 it celebrated its 50th birthday.

In Ancient Rome, bathing at a public facility was part of the daily routine for most citizens. A trip to the Roman baths might include a dip in the caldarium (hot tub), a brief break in the laconicum (sauna), and a refreshing swim in the frigidarium (cold pool).

The earliest foam baths were foamed with soap, which practice came about shortly after soap flakes were marketed. Saponins were also used to foam machine-aerated baths. Foam baths became more popular with later surfactants. Foam baths became standard practice for bathing children after the mass marketing of products so positioned in supermarkets during the 1960s.
