October 31, 2024, is Halloween

Today is Halloween! Halloween, or All Hallow’s Eve, can be traced back to an ancient Celtic pagan festival called “Samhain,” which was celebrated over 2,000 years ago.

The Celtic calendar began on November 1, and the Celts believed that as the old year faded and the new year emerged, the boundaries between the living and the dead became unstable. On the night of October 31, the spirits of the deceased could walk the earth and provoke sickness or damage crops. To combat these evil spirits and ward off wandering ghosts, the Celts built huge bonfires, left bowls of food outside their homes, and wore costumes and masks.

Although there are still plenty of ghosts and ghouls, Halloween has evolved into a secular, family-friendly event. One quarter of all the candy sold in the United States is purchased for Halloween, and typically over 40 million children trick-or-treat in their neighborhood each year.

Mark your calendars for October 28, 2024, the official date set to indulge in the sweet celebration that is National Chocolate Day. It serves as a prime opportunity for chocolate enthusiasts and confectioners alike to revel in the variety and richness of chocolate.

This day lands annually on this autumn date, providing a delightful prelude to the holiday season, where chocolate plays a starring role in festivities and gift-giving. Whether you prefer dark, milk, or white chocolate, this is the moment to embrace your favorite treats guilt-free.

History of National Chocolate Day
Derived from a blend of Aztec and Mayan traditions, chocolate’s history is rich with cultural significance, innovatively combining ancient practices with European influences post-Columbus’s return. It began as a bitter beverage among pre-Olmec cultures around 1900 BC, eventually transitioning into the sweet, universally revered treat we know today.

Marking National Chocolate Day reflects this enduring legacy, which has evolved through centuries. While the specific origins of this day are not well documented, its observance aligns with the broader cultural embrace of chocolate, which surged in popularity in the United States during the 20th century, powered by the industrial revolution and the advent of iconic chocolate companies.

National Chocolate Day, celebrated annually on October 28th, serves to commemorate not only the timeless enjoyment of chocolate but also its journey through history—from an exclusive luxury to a daily delight accessible to everyone. The day functions as a tribute to the dedication of chocolatiers and the continued innovation within the world of confectionery.
