FAST FOOD NEWS: Jack in the Box Macadamia Nut Shake and Iced Coffee

Jack in the Box Macadamia Nut Shake and Iced Coffee

Here in Hawaii, our Jack in the Box locations are offering a Macadamia Nut shake and iced coffee. The photo was taken by Impulsive Buy reader Charmi. I was excited about the shake until I read the fine print on the bottom. “These products do not contain actual macadamia nuts or nut allergens.” Boo, I say! Boo!

Also, how can these be a “Local Fave” when this is the first time they’ve been offered? I guess they could mean macadamia nuts in general.

Jack in the Box locations in Hawaii have offered several exclusive regional menu items over the years. They’ve included items with teriyaki sauce, SPAM, and teriyaki sauce with SPAM.
