About August!
2. AUGUST WENT THROUGH MANY CHANGES IN ANCIENT TIMES.
By the time August comes around, we’ve already seen several season changes: back- to-school season, the last month of American tourism season, the end of the third fiscal quarter, and, well, near the end of summer! Here’s a few more reasons we should enjoy August while it’s here. 1. SANDWICHES WERE INVENTED IN AUGUST. You may think you know British cuisine, but did you know that the British invented sandwiches? Sometime in August 1762, the sandwich was created when the Earl of Sandwich requested meat between two pieces of bread. It was henceforth known as the “sandwich.” (And yes, Sandwich is a real town in Britain!)

Ironically, only 22% of Swedish boys named August were actually born in August! 5. IT’S A GREAT TIME FOR DELICIOUS FOOD HOLIDAYS! In August, Americans can celebrate National Goat Cheese Month, National Panini Month, Peach Month, and — you guessed it — Sandwich Month. Did you learn anything new about August? We sure did! We hope you enjoy this interesting month!
