World Tripe Day
Tripe is one of the compartments of the stomach of ruminant animals. Dishes made from it are present in many national cuisines. Usually, delicious soups are prepared from it, fried with wine, cheese and herbs, and cold appetizers are made. The founders of this day believe that this valuable product does not receive the attention it deserves, and are trying to restore its popularity.
Disarmament Week
The decision to establish the holiday was made in 1978 at the UN General Assembly. At that time, the agenda included the issue of reducing the number of weapons of mass destruction, ending military conflicts in some regions of Asia, America and Africa, and developing measures against terrorism. The purpose of introducing this day was to promote the cessation of the arms race and to convey its danger to the consciousness of mankind.
World Champagne Day
The history of this drink is quite unusual and interesting. Champagne originated by chance in one of the cold regions of France. A change in weather towards lower temperatures interrupted the fermentation process of the wine. When the temperature rose, fermentation resumed. Attempts to stop it were unsuccessful. Thus, sparkling wine was born.
