What Defines a Picnic?

A picnic, my curious companions, is more than just a casual gathering for dining al fresco. It is a culinary adventure wrapped in a blanket of relaxation and a dash of outdoor adventure.
Picnics are not limited to red-checkered blankets and wicker baskets alone. There are no rigid rules dictating what must be eaten or how to set the scene. Whether you’re lounging on a beach towel or reclining in a folding chair, as long as you’re enjoying the outdoors with a smile, you’re having a picnic!

The Origins of International Picnic Day

Since the origins of International Picnic Day are so far a magical mystery, it is rumored that it’s yet another commercial conspiracy, probably by “Big Picnic” or even “Big Sandwich Corp.” to boost sales of blankets, baskets and lots of all kinds of consumables.

But perhaps the truth lies in the simplicity of a grassroots movement where individuals across the globe united to create a holiday, copypasted from one person to another, to create a valid excuse for a celebratory picnic.
