I don't know how "official" it is, but I did find some mentions of The
Day in some newspapers.

PADUA, ITALY - James L. Dozier's first taste of freedom yesterday was
all-American- a cheeseburger, French fries, and a Coke. Because the
cheeseburger "has become such an American tradition," Mrs. Raque said
that she is going to try to get Congress to proclaim "National
Cheeseburger Day" next October.
-Courier-Journal (Louisville, KY) January 9, 1984

The book "Stabbed With a Wedge of Cheese and Other Cultural Oddities"
also lists holidays that have been proposed but rejected. A few: Duck
stamp Week, National Cheeseburger Day, Elvis Presley Day..."
-News and Observer (Raleigh, NC) July 30, 1992

And we now celebrate National Cheeseburger Day on June 25.
-Times-News (Nephi, UT) Jun 9, 1999

In Honor of National Cheeseburger Day, September 18th, Regular Sonic
Burgers 5/$5.95
Sequoyah County Times (Sallisaw, OK) 17 September 2009

SO who decides the days?

Good Morning Show viewer Susan Atkinson asked:

"I keep seeing posts for National Son or Daughter's Day in September.
Is there such a day? I did find a National Son or Daughter Day in
August but nothing for September. Where are people getting this
stuff?"
https://www.wfmynews2.com/article/news/local/good-morning-show/verify-who-decides-national-days/83-601909216#:~:text=Congress%20established%2011%20permanent%20federal,Independence%20Day%2C%20Thanksgiving%20and%20Christmas.
To answer Susan's question, we must look at what is called the
National Day Calendar. It is not run by a federal agency -- just an
entrepreneur with an idea. Marlo Anderson co-founded the website in
2013 with National Popcorn Day. He has built it up to include nearly
1,500 national days, weeks and months.
The calendar's national day registration form explains due to backlog,
only companies and organizations can apply for a national day. The
agency does not allow birthdays, anniversaries or individuals. WFMY
News 2's Blanca Cobb, body language expert, got National Body Language
declared. She explained a committee decides on which holidays to
declare, and applicants do pay a fee.

It would be interesting to find out what company or organization
applied for National Cheeseburger Day.

I was at the Burgermeister reunion yesterday,
celebrating Cheeseburger Day.

BTW, here's an emoji: 🍟

(Are they "fries" or "chips"? You decide...)

Maybe it was in 'webp' format and wasn't allowed?

LOL
