HOW FAR CAN YOU TOSS A FRUIT CAKE? Find out January 3rd!
from “Have YOU heard?” · host Troy W. Hudson
Have YOU heard? January 3rd is National Chocolate-Covered Cherry Day? 🍒🍫 Whether you love them or avoid them, these sweet treats are a holiday favorite! First made in the 1920s, chocolate-covered cherries have become a popular candy for holidays and special occasions. So, why not grab a box and indulge today? January 3rd also marks the anniversary of the first known use of the word "robot" back in 1920! The term came from a Czech play called R.U.R. (Rossum’s Universal Robots). It was an exploration of the future of artificial intelligence and automation. Fast forward a century later, and robots are everywhere in our homes and workplaces. 🤖 Today is National Fruitcake Toss Day – If you’ve ever been stuck with leftover fruitcake after the holidays, today’s the day to get rid of it in the most fun way possible—by tossing it! It’s the perfect opportunity to let go of things that no longer serve you. Whether you toss it outside or into the trash, it’s a day to celebrate clearing out the old and making room for the new! National Drinking Straw Day – Here’s a fun one to remember! On January 3rd, we celebrate the drinking straw. It was patented back in 1888, originally made out of paper, and has become a must-have in nearly every drink we enjoy. Today is the day to raise a glass (with a straw, of course) and appreciate this humble invention! Today is National Spaghetti Day 🍝! Did you know spaghetti has been around for over 200 years? Whether you enjoy it with marinara, meatballs, or just a sprinkle of cheese, January 3rd is the perfect excuse to dive into a delicious bowl of pasta. It’s a meal that brings people together, so share it with friends or family and make some tasty memories! ⏰ Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 00:28 National CHOCOLATE COVERED CHERRY Day 00:50 First use of the word "ROBOT" in 1920 01:23 National FRUIT CAKE TOSS Day 01:56 National DRINKING STRAW Day 02:17 National SPAGHETTI Day 02:50 Closing Troy W.
