Wendy's is giving away free chicken tenders on Friday, but you'll have to know the correct password to get them. 

The fast-food chain announced on Twitter on Friday morning that it would be giving away free two-piece chicken tenders boxes while supplies last. All customers need to do to receive the free food is recite the password "Winner, Winner, Chicken Tender."

Neither a coupon nor an additional purchase of food is required. 

The inspiration for the promotion is that July 27 is apparently National Chicken Tenders Day. Though Wendy's has long carried chicken sandwiches and chicken nuggets on its menu, chicken tenders are a relatively new addition. They placed fourth out of seven in Business Insider's Hollis Johnson's ranking of fast-food chicken tenders.  

The tweet advertising the promotion initially appeared on Thursday, with Wendy's playfully posting a message that "you'll need to know the password" to get the free food. Wendy's then posted a tweet this morning with the correct password and a picture of their chicken tenders along with a side of fries.
