America's five best food holidays -- and three we need to start
1. Corned Beef Hash Day
Why? Because corned beef hash is the second-greatest breakfast food of all time (behind pancakes) and, when done well (which means with fresh corned beef, a buffalo chopper and perfect brunoise potatoes), is a true work of art. So why doesn't it have a day of its own?

2. Streetcorner Hot Dog Cart Appreciation Week
Biker Jim Pittenger of Biker Jim's Gourmet Dogs will be our official Wiener King to celebrate when this day becomes official.

3. International Chef's Day
Aaron Thackeray Sorry, sister, but you've gotta work tonight.
All kitchen crews, all dishwashers, all busboys and grillardins and poissonardes and line dogs and grillmen and station chefs and everyone else attached to the back of the house gets the day off. All bartenders, cocktail waitresses, strippers, drug dealers and associated tradespeople must still report to work. For obvious reasons, of course.
