What is National Crouton Day?

National Crouton Day, which takes place on May 13th each year, is recognized as a delectable topping that shouldn't be missed.

Many of our bread-related foods originate from France and for good reason. The French people adore bread. Croutons are no different. Croûte means crust in French. Croutons are often made from day-old bread that has been cut into cubes and seasoned with herbs, oil, or butter. The bread is then either toasted in the oven or tossed in a hot pan until crispy.

On our salads, we're certainly most familiar with croutons. And if we add croutons to our salads, it's a bit of celebration – a crunch celebration. Each crispy, crunchy bite adds to our crispy, pleasure.
