Manna appeared on the ground with the evaporation of a layer of dew that developed in the morning, so that “upon the surface of the wilderness there was a fine flaky thing, fine like hoarfrost upon the earth.” When the Israelites first saw it, they said, “What is it?” or, literally, “man hu’?” This is the probable origin of the name, the Israelites themselves beginning to call this food “manna.
The availability of manna did not depend on the time of year or a particular wilderness location. Although the manna would breed worms and begin to stink on all the other days if kept overnight, the additional omer of manna gathered on the sixth day, to be used as food on the Sabbath, did not spoil. No manna could be found on the Sabbath, this serving to enforce Sabbath observance on the Israelites.

Since it was dropped down from heaven or, off the space ship, I think that the angels had a recipe special for two day manna.

God made provision so that the manna lasted two days because the Jewish people were forbidden to gather it on the Sabbath Day.

Manna was similar to bread and when the Jewish people disobeyed, it became spoiled. Bible only states that it fell on the ground like dew and the people went out and gathered it.
