(Food-Beverage-News.Com, April 18, 2015 ) Taylor, MI -- April 23rd is National Picnic Day. Nowadays a picnic means a pleasurable outing with a tasty meal eaten outdoors, preferably in a beautiful setting. This relaxing and carefree act of eating outside began in England as medieval hunting feasts; elaborate meals of hams, baked meats and pastries served and consumed before a hunt. These medieval banquets were the forerunner of the outdoor dining experience celebrated as National Picnic Day.
A few hundred years ago, a picnic meant a potluck, an entertainment at which each person contributed some dish to a common table for all to share. The change in meaning of the term from "everyone bringing some food" to "everyone eating out of doors" took place in the 1800s. By the mid-19th century, dining outdoors in a casual atmosphere with no strict menu and jovial company took hold in the United States.
From gourmet delicacies to traditional sandwiches and salads, there are many types of foods suitable for a picnic, but no picnic is complete without dessert. The challenge is to pack a dessert or desserts that will survive travel and transport to the picnic site. Slick Brownies, which are baked in silicone baking cups, stay intact despite the most arduous travel.
