I do not know who started this or when they first named May 24 , as ' National Escargot Day ' . I just read it in the carrier Pigeon , a monthly free magazine that I receive. Check out www.theuptightsuburbanite.com. It is interesting to see that they have something for each day of the month of May . Subscribe to my blog or follow me if you wish to be reminded of all the interesting holidays.
Good morning Gita. Been some time since I had had some escargot. Thanks for the reminder. Maybe today! Enjoy your day!

Good morning, Gita Bantwal I love this day!!!! Escargot, my favorite of all appetizers.... and when my adult children were very young, it was theirs too.... they were introduced to many wonderful foods and ordered them off the menu...surprised many waiters.....

Lise, you should go to Paris again to celebrate this day. You have a rain check. Maybe Nina and Ginnie can go with you
Joan, will have to find a place in Philadelphia where they serve it for when you visit.
Hello Gita --- although I don't eat it often, escargot can be quite good although many may know it from the classic "I Love Lucy" episode.
