Get your favorite dipping sauce ready for National French Fry Day on July 11, 2025. Whether it’s ketchup, mustard, mayo or ranch dressing, everyone has their own ritual for enjoying the salty side dish.
Then, there’s the variety of fries available for dipping: crinkle-cut, curly, waffle, steak, shoestring — the list goes on and on. Of course, the favorites are often the fries many have come to enjoy regularly at fast-food restaurants. And, even then, there’s a fierce debate about which chain has the best fries. (Everyone has their favorite!)
However, there’s one issue that’s not open for debate — fries are always best hot and fresh!
