NATIONAL SOMETHING ON A STICK DAY
national day ^

Posted on 03/28/2022 12:24:52 PM PDT by mylife

Observed each year on March 28th, National Something on a Stick Day is a food holiday that lets you use your creative talents. Once you get started, the possibilities are endless. Foods that come on a stick are fun and easy to eat.

There isn’t much that can’t be put on a stick when talking about food. Soup might be that one exception, though if it were flavorful frozen, we might make an exception.

From cool summer treats like the Popsicle to frozen food staples like the corn dog, food on a stick is one of the world’s great inventions. Fresh fruit kabobs and skewers of grilled veggies and meat are both summer favorites.

Street fairs and food trucks have created a variety of recipes made to go on a stick that takes us from breakfast to after-party hunger with flavor combinations that sometimes make us wonder why we haven’t tried that before! Whether it is fresh and healthy or breaded and deep-fried, menu choices are broad and plentiful for National Something on a Stick Day.

Get inventive and create your own combination.

We always called ‘em “dipdogs”...

My son hates it when I call them "dipdogs". I call them "dipdogs" a lot.

USAF, ‘81-‘85. We had to do a stretch at KP...cleaning up and washing dishes. Miserable steamy work. Civilians did all of the serving.
