National Greasy Foods Day

Though it is not the healthiest, Americans certainly do love the taste of greasy food. Predominately found in fast food restaurant chains, greasy food can also be found in other types of restaurants as well. From pizza and nachos to burgers and french fries, it's nearly impossible to not see some form of a greasy food on any American menu. 

Did you know that fried chicken is the most ordered meal in sit-down restaurants in the U.S.? Greasy foods can be pan-fried, deep fried, or baked. To celebrate National Greasy Food Day, allow yourself to indulge in a little greasy food...even if it's just for today.

Today is also Mother-in-law Day
