Hot, crispy, and loved around the world — who doesn’t adore French fries? Whether you like them thin, curly, crinkle-cut, or smothered in cheese, there’s no denying that fries are the ultimate comfort food. And what better excuse to indulge than International Fries Day, celebrated every year on July 13?
This year, International Fries Day 2025 falls on a Sunday, so it’s the perfect weekend to treat yourself. Let’s dig into the origins, how to celebrate, and where to get the best fries in town!
When is International Fries Day?
International Fries Day is celebrated on July 13th every year, though some brands and countries may have fun deals a few days before or after. Keep your eyes peeled for limited-time menus, promos, and social media giveaways — especially from fast food chains!
A Quick Fry Story
While the name French fries might suggest France, many believe fries were actually born in Belgium, where locals began frying potatoes in the 1600s. American soldiers in WWI first encountered them and called them “French” due to the French-speaking region — and the name stuck!
How to Celebrate Fries Day
Here are some fun, fried ideas to mark the occasion:
- Try a New Style: Go beyond the usual! Waffle fries, tater tots, sweet potato fries, or truffle oil parmesan fries — there’s a whole world of crispy goodness.
- DIY Loaded Fries Bar: At home? Host a mini fry party with toppings like cheese, beef bacon bits, sambal, mayo, curry, or even chili crab sauce (hello, Singapore!).
- Go Fry-Hopping: Explore your city’s best fries. Some places worth checking out in Singapore and Malaysia include Shake Shack, Five Guys, Potato Corner, or even your favourite local mamak.
Don’t Forget the #FriesDay Hashtag!
Snap a pic of your delicious fries and join the celebration online. Use hashtags like #InternationalFriesDay, #FriesLover, or #CrispyGoals.
