National Themes For July 30th: National Cheesecake Day, National Father-in-Law Day, and National Whistleblower Day.

🧀🍰National Cheesecake Day! Cheesecake is a dessert that is loved by millions around the country. It is a sweet dessert that is a mixture of soft fresh cheese, cream cheese or cottage cheese, eggs and sugar on a crust made from crushed graham crackers, crushed cookies, pastry or sponge cake. Cheesecakes can be prepared baked or unbaked, can be flavored and are often served topped with fruit, fruit sauce, chocolate or whipped cream. There are many flavors in which cheesecakes can be prepared, some of which are blueberry, strawberry, pumpkin, chocolate, key lime, lemon, orange, raspberry or toffee. It is possible that an ancient form of cheesecake may have been a popular dish in ancient Greece. It has been found that the earliest attested mention of a cheesecake is by Greek physician Aegimus, who wrote a book on the art of making cheesecakes. James Kraft developed a form of pasteurized cream cheese in 1912. In 1928, Kraft acquired the Philadelphia trademark and marketed pasteurized Philadelphia Cream Cheese which is now the most commonly used cheese for cheesecake. North America has several different styles of cheesecakes: New York-style cheesecake, Pennsylvania Dutch-style cheesecake, Philadelphia-style, Farmer cheese cheesecake, Country-style cheesecake, Lactose-free cheesecake, Cheesecake Kludys, Chicago Style cheesecake, Savory cheesecake.

🌳National Father-In-Law Day! Fathers-in-law bring a new perspective to our lives. Whether we are a new addition to their families or have made bonds a long time ago, they grow to have an honored place in our hearts. They are the patriarchs of our families. Whether they’ve built a reputation for being stubborn, softhearted or full of humor, these men stand as one cornerstone of a sheltering family tree. During National Father-in-Law Day, celebrate the father-in-law in your life.

🗣National Whistleblower Day commemorates the day our Founding Fathers recognized the need to protect the courageous whistleblowers, those who take notice and step forward to report corruption when they see it. National Whistleblower Day reminds us to honor and support the people who speak up when they witness fraud, abuse or waste. A whistleblower is any individual who reports violations, exploitation, misrepresentations or other suspicious activity within an organization either public or private. The history of whistleblowers is long and often trying. While legislation now protects whistleblowers from retaliation by their employers, they carry a heavy burden often followed by legal battles. Whether they work in the private sector, local or federal government, when a whistleblower reports a suspected activity, their motivation is to protect consumers, taxpayers, and the general public. National Whistleblower Day commemorates July 30th, 1778, the day the Continental Congress passed a historic and unanimous resolution honoring ten sailors and marines who spoke out against their commander’s abuses of his office. In doing so, the Founding Fathers declared that it was the duty of all Americans, “to give the earliest information to Congress or other proper authority of any misconduct, frauds, or misdemeanors.” In modern terms, it is an American’s duty to report corruption when they suspect it. The United States Senate first recognized National Whistleblower Day in 2013.
