If there ever was a time that America needed free sandwiches, it's now.

Thursday is National Sandwich Day — a completely fabricated holiday allegedly inspired by the birthday of the man who invented the sandwich — and in a time of historic division across the country, we can all celebrate meats surrounded by breads.

Several restaurant chains are offering free sandwiches or special deals in honor of National Sandwich Day. See some of them listed below.

Arby's — While the chain isn't offering a deal specific to National Sandwich Day, if you sign up for email coupons at its website, you'll get a free Roast Beef Classic sandwich with the purchase of a drink.
