National Chocolate Covered Raisins Day

Oh what a happy day this can be!  And they are good for you.  Chocolate is made from cocoa beans (vegetable) and raisins are from grapes (fruit).  So eating an entire box of raisinettes should afford you most of your daily serving of  fruits and vegetables for a day.   (I once justified the nutrition value of cookies for breakfast to my mother.)

However there is no congressional record or presidential proclamations for National Chocolate Covered Raisins Day.   I think someone, somewhere needs to start a movement.
