January 25th
January 25th is Gluttony Day in Brazil, a fun and irreverent date dedicated to celebrating the pleasure of food and indulgence in flavors that delight the palate. Although the date has a relaxed and humorous tone, it also invites us to reflect on the pleasures of gastronomy and the importance of enjoying food in a balanced way, without excess.
The term "gluttony" comes from the Latin "gula", which refers to the excessive desire to eat, but the date, instead of reinforcing a negative connotation, is an opportunity to celebrate the diversity of flavors, dishes and culinary traditions of different cultures. It also recalls the pleasure of gathering with friends and family at the table, enjoying good times with food.
In some regions of Brazil, Gluttony Day is celebrated with large gastronomic parties, food fairs, recipe competitions and flavor festivals. It's a chance to explore new dishes and enjoy typical delicacies from different parts of the country, all in a light and fun way.
