National Chicken Finger Day 

Satisfy your fast food cravings on Chicken Finger Day, celebrated annually on July 27. Founded by one of the greatest pioneers of chicken fingers — Raising Cane’s — this day honors the perfectly coated snack that is chicken fingers. A specialty that originated in the South, this delicious tidbit is loved by even the most finicky child. They can be used as a food bribe when little ones refuse to eat. Accompanied by just about any of your favorite side dishes, chicken fingers remain a firm favorite.

History of Chicken Finger Day

Chicken fingers are one of the most delicious items you can find on the menu of many fast-food establishments. Just in case you’re living under a rock and haven’t heard of this tasty finger food, let us tell you what to expect. Chicken fingers could also be called chicken goujons, chicken strips, chicken tenders, or chicken fillets. They are made from the white meat from chicken breasts and are prepared by seasoning the chicken strips to your preference, coating them in breading, and deep-frying them. The result is a tasty soft piece of chicken wrapped in a crunchy, golden-brown exterior.

The deliciousness that is chicken fingers might not be as recent a finding as you might think. Its origins have been traced back to the late 1900s at the Puritan Backroom of Manchester, New Hampshire. There have been several oppositions of this fact from restaurants in Georgia and Louisiana, but a consensus crowns Manchester as the winning chicken finger city.

One of the major producers of chicken fingers in America is Raising Cane’s — a Louisiana-based fast-food chain that specializes in a variety of chicken finger dishes. Its founder, Todd Graves was discouraged by college professors and banks who thought the idea of a restaurant serving just chicken fingers wouldn’t fly. Years later Todd raised his own money and was able to launch the first building with the help of an SBA loan. He has now further proven them wrong with over 385 restaurants in over 24 states, as well as some international countries. Raising Cane’s created Chicken Finger Day to honor their love of chicken fingers, and celebrate with their fans and chicken finger lovers across the world.

Why are they called chicken fingers?

No one knows how the term chicken fingers came to be. The most logical answer points to its form or the way it’s eaten. Chicken fingers are roughly shaped like human fingers, although bigger, and are generally finger food. These could be the reasons why the term ‘chicken fingers’ was coined.

Do chicken fingers have bones?

Chicken fingers, strips, or tenders are made from strips of white meat from the chicken’s breast. The chicken breast is used because that location provides the most flesh in the chicken with no bones. Therefore, this means that the finished results — chicken fingers — are also boneless.
