National Corned Beef And Cabbage Day
National Corned Beef and Cabbage Day in the United States coincides with St. Patrick's Day on March 17th.
St. Patrick's Day
The Feast of St. Patrick's Day, also known as the Feast of St. Patrick, is launched on St. Patrick's Day in the United States. Many will dress green in honor of the Irish and decorate with shamrocks on March 17th. According to lore, the wearing of the green symbol dates back to a tale told about St. Patrick in 1726. St. Patrick (c.) Patrick (c.) Patrick (c.) Patrick (c.) (AD 385–461) illustrated the Holy Trinity with the shamrock and wore green clothing. Although the tale is unlikely to be true, many will revel in the Irish roots and eat traditional Irish fare, too.
