Grab Free French Fries from Burger King, Wendy’s, and Other Outlets This National French Fry Day

National French Fry Day, is a holiday that has been celebrated for many years now but nobody knows its significance. But we aren't complaining when the day means indulging in a bag full of free French fries. 

In 2022, a petition was initiated by Checkers and Rally, that considered Friday to be the most appropriate day to celebrate National French Fry Day. Up till that day, the holiday had always been celebrated on a fixed date—July 13. Since it will now be celebrated on Friday, the holiday falls on July 14 this year. Following 36,000 signatures, Marlo Anderson, who is the founder of the National Day Calendar, declared that the holiday has now officially moved to the second Friday of every July.

“I, in good conscience, cannot ignore the voice of the people, who simply want to ‘fry-ght’ a wrong that’s been in place for far too long,”, he said in a statement. Having said that, it seems that not everyone got the memo, as major chains like McDonald's and Smashburger are still giving out free fries on July 13, which is a Thursday, while Burger King heard the Friday call. Here's where and how to get the free fries.
