Daily Holidays - January 16


http://www.famousbirthdays.com/january16.html

International Hot &
 Spicy Food Day For one red-hot day a year, the world’s chili heads, heat-seekers and extreme eaters can take their passion to extremes. International Hot and Spicy Foods Day sparks a wildfire of events, from habanero-eating challenges to fancy-dress contests and cook-offs of popular recipes. Among serious aficionados, it also re-kindles the great debate: which chili pepper tops the official Scoville heat scale? https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/international-hot-and-spicy-food-day/

Appreciate A Dragon Day The dragon is a powerful symbol in mythology all over the world, from Europe to Asia and beyond. Appreciate A Dragon Day encourages you to explore the cultural significance of the dragon in your society and history! https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/appreciate-a-dragon-day/

Nothing Day Nothing Day has been commemorated since 1973. The day is literally about doing nothing at all, placing it in a similar vein to other such surreal non-occasions as an Un-Birthday or Buy Nothing Day. There is absolutely no purpose or intended structure for this pointless celebration. https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/nothing-day/
