VALENTINE’S DAY TRIVIA – THINGS YOU PROBABLY DIDN’T KNOW |
||
|
About 1 billion Valentine's Day cards are
exchanged each year. That's the largest seasonal card-sending occasion of the
year, next to Christmas. In Victorian times it was considered bad
luck to sign a Valentine's Day card. In Wales, wooden love spoons were carved
and given as gifts on February 14th. Hearts, keys and keyholes were favorite
decorations on the spoons. The decoration meant, "You unlock my
heart!" |
California produces 60 percent of American
roses, but the vast number sold on Valentine's Day in the United States are
imported, mostly from South America. Approximately 110 million roses, the
majority red, will be sold and delivered within a three-day time period. Only the U.S.,
Canada, Mexico, France, Australia and the U.K. celebrate Valentine's Day. About 3% of pet
owners will give Valentine's Day gifts to their pets. |
During the late 1800s, postage rates around
the world dropped, and the obscene St. Valentine's Day card became popular,
despite the Victorian era being otherwise very prudish. As the numbers of
racy valentines grew, several countries banned the practice of exchanging
Valentine's Days cards. During this period, Chicago's post office rejected
more than 25,000 cards on the grounds that they were so indecent, they were
not fit to be carried through the U.S. mail. |
