National French Fry Day 2023: Check McDonald's, Heinz and Uber Eats, Burger King's deals, offers

National French Fry Day is a highly anticipated food holiday celebrated on the second Friday in July, falling on July 14 this year. The day's significance has been moved to align with the name "Fry-day." While some fast-food chains have embraced this change, others continue to offer deals and giveaways on the traditional date of July 13 and beyond.

The Origins of French Fries:

The true origins of French fries are a subject of debate. While France has the earliest recorded mention of French fries in a Parisian book from 1775, Belgian food historian Pierre Leqluercq argues that a 1795 French cookbook contains a recipe similar to modern French fries. Belgium, however, seeks UNESCO recognition for its fries, tracing their roots back to 17th-century villagers who fried potatoes when they couldn't fish due to frozen rivers. The term "French" fries originated during World War I when U.S. soldiers encountered the dish in southern Belgium, where French is the dominant language.
