National Fun with Fondue Month is observed every November and encourages everyone to try their hand at making this melted cheese dish, commonly served in a communal pot. During the 1960s and 1970s, fondue parties were all the rage, but that trend has fallen off over the past few years.

So, let’s all come together during the month of November and attempt to bring back the fondue party.
