Holiday Calendar and Pop Quiz: National Chocolate Macaroon Day, World Bicycle Day, and a Trivia Twist
It’s time for the Hashtag Holiday Calendar and Pop Quiz, brought to you by Inland Empire Health Plan. Here’s a look at what’s being celebrated on Tuesday, June 3rd, 2025—some holidays you won’t find on a Hallmark card.
National Chocolate Macaroon Day
Chocolate lovers, rejoice! It’s a day to enjoy the chewy, coconut-packed treats known as macaroons. If you haven’t tried La Provence in Palm Desert yet, locals say their macaroons are a must.
National Egg Day
No matter how you like them—scrambled, poached, or sunny side up—today’s the perfect excuse to get cracking. Eggs may still be on the pricey side for some, but they remain a breakfast favorite.
World Bicycle Day
A day that promotes cycling as a healthy, eco-friendly form of transportation. Fun fact: all bicyclists are two tired. Get it?
National Itch Day
This one has a serious side. It’s meant to raise awareness about the itching associated with chronic kidney disease.
To tie in with the theme, we tested viewers with two trivia questions about “itchy” pop culture moments:
What kind of animal is Itchy in “The Simpsons” spinoff cartoon The Itchy & Scratchy Show?
Correct answer: B. A blue mouse
Who performed the 1966 Motown hit Love Is Like an Itching in My Heart?
Correct answer: B. The Supremes
Whether you’re craving a macaroon, biking to work, or testing your trivia knowledge, today’s got a little something for everyone.
