EAST BRUNSWICK, NJ — East Brunswick Recreation and Parks will host a free Hot Dog Day event in celebration of National Hot Dog Day on Wednesday, July 15, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
The event will take place outside the Municipal Building at the East Brunswick Municipal Complex. Free hot dogs will be available while supplies last, limited to one per person due to the event's popularity. Residents are encouraged to arrive early to secure their spot.
National Hot Dog Day is an annual observance established by the National Hot Dog and Sausage Council in 1991 to coincide with a hot dog lunch on Capitol Hill, and is celebrated each year on a Wednesday in July. The date shifts annually because the observance always falls on the third Wednesday of the month.
Americans consume an estimated 20 billion hot dogs annually, including about 7 billion during the summer grilling season alone.
