International Waffle Day is on March 25, marked annually to celebrate the mouth-watering dish. This day first originated in Sweden.

According to the country's national tourism website, Våffeldagen – as they call it in Sweden – is a holiday born out of a linguistic misunderstanding. It is said Swedish Christians observed Lady Day or the Feat of the Annunciation, which was called "Vårfrudagen." But people later realized the word sounded a lot like "Våffeldagen" — the word for Waffle Day — marking the beginning of the tradition. Celebrate this day by eating waffles from your favorite store or by making one at home.
