To Day is National BBQ day (US) Although the concept of barbecuing did not originate in America, the activity has become an essential part of American culture today. The history of barbecuing in the U.S. goes back to colonial times where any celebration was incomplete without a cookout. After the Revolutionary War was won and the first bridge was built over the Missouri River, barbecue celebrations erupted all over the nation. Even the American presidents are famous for hosting massive barbecues during times of success and on days of special observances. In fact, George Washington’s diary is said to have referenced a barbecue event that lasted for three days — that’s how deeply rooted barbecuing is in the country’s history! Barbecues are a White House tradition thanks to President Lyndon B. Johnson who started this trend by hosting the first-ever barbecue in the presidential headquarters. The food items served at the event included delicious Texas-style barbecue wings. #BBQ #foodandbeverageindustry #foodscience #foodbusiness #scienceandtechnology #sciencecommunication #barbecue #foodforthought #scienceeducation #cooking #cookingathome ##outdoors #outdoorliving #outdoorscooking #culture #event #food #America #infographic via Compound Interest | Chemistry infographics C&EN
