Pi Day isn’t just about showing off how many numbers you have memorized. Restaurants from Burger King to California Pizza Kitchen are offering deals and discounts on Thursday, March 14.
Pi Day occurs on March 14 each year because the date is written as 3.14 in the United States. Pi is the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter, or approximately 3.14 (its exact value is infinite and can’t be calculated). March 14 also happens to be Albert Einstein’s birthday.
With eating out becoming more of a luxury, restaurants use such deals to help draw customers to fast casual and fast food chains.
Pi Day has also become synonymous with pizza pie (and other round foods). Here are some deals to round out your celebration:
