We — as in, the children of the internet — needed National Roast Day more than ever this year. A made-up internet holiday, Wendy’s claimed it as its own and set February 11 as the annual date.
In 2020, National Roast Day was a little too close to the COVID-19 outbreak. And with everything so uncertain and frightening, Wendy’s moved the date.
We’re moving National Roast Day because there are going to be better times for it. Love you guys.

And then canceled the day altogether when we all realized Miss Rona was settling in for an extended stay.
BUT IT’S 2021 BABY AND WENDY’S IS BACK!
We’ve gotta hand it to Wendy’s Twitter for knowing how to bring the world together.
Anyway, we’ll stop now and let you take in the roasts. Mmmmm, roasts so good Arby’s is gettin’ night sweats.
Time for everybody’s favorite made up social media holiday. It’s #NationalRoastDay, like right now.
