The origins of Take Your Kitchen Scales to Work Day are lost in the mists of time. It was only founded one year ago, so that’s quite an impressive achievement! This little event has got legs!

It began with a simple post, from a simple man.

Also happy inaugural “Take Your Kitchen Scales to Work Day” to all in the future who will celebrate this new holiday I have just started apparently.

Last Tuesday in July every year. Mark your calendar!

His calendar was duly marked, and then totally forgotten until a scheduled reminder popped up for July 29, 2025 (hey, that’s the day I’m writing this). The second annual Take Your Kitchen Scales to Work Day was on.

So far it’s off to a roaring start! The hashtag is on fire with thousands of posts already (NOTE: check this before posting to avoid embarrassment) as people all over the world take their kitchen scales to work and share their pictures!

Get in on the action today, or set that reminder for the last Tuesday in July 2026 and we’ll see you then!
