National Cheese Lover's Day

Jan. 20 is National Cheese Lover's Day. This annual food holiday celebrates all things cheese. With more than 900 different varieties, there’s nothing quite like sinking your teeth into an ooey, gooey bite of delicious cheese. Whether you prefer the mild and creamy type or sharp and tangy, cheese is not only good to eat, it’s loaded with calcium and protein too.

In honor of National Cheese Lover’s Day, why not invite a few friends over and have your own wine and cheese tasting party? Or if nothing else, whip up one or tried-and-true or one or two brand new ooey gooey cheesy dishes?

Jan. 20 is also Penguin Awareness Day.
