Impulsive Buy reader Robbie sent us this photo from a Jack in the Box restaurant in San Antonio, Texas for Strawberry Dr Pepper.
A quick Twitter search tells me that it’s a Coke Freestyle flavor, there’s a diet version, and it’s also available at Wendy’s.
If you’ve tried it or seen it at other fast food chains, let us know in the comments.
Jack in the Box is now offering three new sandwiches that have been inspired by food truck cuisine.
The Asian Fried Chicken Sandwich features crispy all white meat chicken strips, crunchy Asian slaw, cucumbers, and a bold gochujang mayo on a toasted baguette. It has 660 calories, 27 grams of fat, 5 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 1590 milligrams of sodium, 80 grams of carbohydrates, and 26 grams of protein.
Next up is the Prime Rib Cheesesteak that has prime rib steak strips that have been grilled with garlic butter, peppers, onions, and provolone cheese on a toasted baguette. This sandwich has 680 calories, 39 grams of fat, 17 grams of saturated fat, 1 gram of trans fat, 1460 milligrams of sodium, 57 grams of carbohydrates, and 28 grams of protein.
Finally, there’s the Pork Belly BLT. It’s built with two slabs of seared pork belly, green leaf lettuce, and tomatoes on a toasted baguette. It has 630 calories, 35 grams of fat, 13 grams of saturated fat, 1560 milligrams of sodium, 56 grams of carbohydrates, and 27 grams of protein.

Joining the original Chicken Strip Basket and Honey BBQ Glazed Chicken Strip Basket on the Dairy Queen menu is the new Honey Hot Glazed Chicken Strip Basket.
The menu item features 100 percent white meat tenderloin chicken strips tossed in a Honey Hot Glaze that gets its heat from Frank’s Red Hot Sauce. The basket also includes fries, Texas toast, and ranch dipping sauce. It’s available with 4 or 6 pieces of chicken.
A 4-piece basket has 1280 calories, 68 grams of fat, 11 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 85 milligrams of cholesterol, 3400 milligrams of sodium, 128 grams of carbohydrates, 7 grams of fiber, 27 grams of sugar, and 38 grams of protein.

Krispy Kreme has introduced a new doughnut for Valentine’s Day — the Oreo Cookie’s & Kreme Doughnut.
It’s a heart-shaped unglazed doughnut filled with Oreo Cookie Kreme that’s dipped in dark chocolate and topped wit Oreo Cookie pieces and a red icing drizzle.
Most likely this tastes exactly like Krispy Kreme’s round Oreo Cookies & Kreme Doughnut, unless the white icing on that tastes different than the red icing this.
Also, what’s the deal with the apostrophe in its name?
The doughnut is available through Valentine’s Day at participating U.S. and Canadian locations.
There’s no nutritional information for the heart-shaped doughnut, but the regular round Oreo Cookies & Kreme has 420 calories, 22 grams of fat, 9 grams of saturated fat, 0 gift 0 milligrams of cholesterol, 200 milligrams of sodium, 53 grams of carbohydrates, 1 gram of fiber, 29 grams of sugar, and 5 grams of protein.
