APRIL 20 - Today in Food History

- National Pineapple Upside Down Cake Day

1770 Marie-Anne de Cupis de Camargo died. Born in Belgium, this ballerina danced with the Paris Opera. Escoffier named many gourmet dishes in her honor.

1841 Edgar Allan Poe's 'The Murders in the Rue Morgue' was published, the first modern detective story. This has nothing to do with food, but I am an avid fan of both detective fiction and Poe.

1999 The Disney film 'A Bug's Life' was released. It was the first 100% digital DVD. It was transferred directly form the digital source to DVD.
