SHENANDOAH - Move over pumpkin spice, there's another food trend in town: pierogies. Todaymarks the eighth annual national pierogi day.

Pierogi lovers across the country will be celebrating by enjoying the delicious combination of creamy whipped potatoes and other flavorful ingredients like aged cheddar cheese folded into a pasta shell.Mrs. T's Pierogies, America's largest producer of frozen pierogies, takes great pride in celebrating this national holiday. In fact, it was on Oct. 8, 1952, when the son of Mary Twardzik - the real Mrs. T - sold the very first samples of Mrs. T's Pierogies to his local grocery store in Shenandoah. Now, more than 60 years later, Mrs. T's Pierogies produces 600 million pierogies a year, which is enough pierogies to go the whole way around the globe, plus another 1,000 miles."At Mrs. T's Pierogies, every day feels like national pierogi day," said Tom Twardzik, president of Mrs. T's Pierogies. "We're thrilled to have the opportunity to share our favorite food with fans across the country. We hope they'll be inspired to show their pierogi pride on Oct. 8th and all year long."
