National Burger Day
It’s a fact…Americans love burgers. So much so, we even have a National Burger Day – which is celebrated annually on May 28.
After serving burgers for over 50 years, where better to celebrate the holiday this year than TGI Fridays?
In honor of National Burger Day on Saturday, check out these burger stats and facts from Fridays:
- Americans eat 50 billion burgers per year, ordering 9 billion of them from restaurants.
- TGI Fridays founder Alan Stillman claims to have invented the hamburger served on an English muffin – in an attempt to make people feel that they were going to a friend’s apartment for a cocktail party.
- Fridays served over 12 million burgers in 2015.
- Our most popular burger is the Jack Daniels Burger – over 3.5 million were consumed last year alone.
- Fridays offers 9 enticing burger options, including the All-American Stacked Burger, Turkey Burger, New York Cheddar & Bacon Burger and the customizable Your Call Burger.
To celebrate National Burger Day on Saturday, Fridays is grilling up an all-new Truffle Stacked Burger and pairing it with a side and drink for only $12. That’s basically a burger and fries with a free sidecar.
