Q: HOW MANY NUGGETS COME IN 1 POUND?

Q: WHAT KIND OF OIL DO YOU USE?
A: In our fryers, we have both soy and canola oils, but will be moving to 100% canola oil by August 2024, and we will remove soy oil from our facilities.
We also use an olive oil blend for our salad dressings and sauces.

Q: HOW MANY CALORIES?
A: Whose counting calories anyway? It's definitely a treat meal.
Q: WHAT'S A "HOME-RUN" ?
A: We're so glad you asked because it's delicious and everyone should try one! We take a special (or a junior, or a big boy, whatver you want) and we lay out the fries and nuggets and smother them in our spicy chili and melty cheese. We sprinkle our secret seasoning on top and BAM- you've got yourself a home-run special.
(Best with a side of dippin' sauce- ranch if you ask us...)
