With summer approaching fast, several fast-food restaurants have recently released some wild menu items for the season. Here’s a list of seven that may have already caught your attention. 

1. McDonald’s McCrispy Strips – these chicken strips are the first new permanent menu item McDonald’s has released in four years. They’re described as “juicy, dippable perfection” and they are served with a new sweet, tangy Creamy Chili Dip. 
2. Jersey Mike’s Subs Signature Chicken Salad Sub – this new limited-edition sub features slow-roasted chicken breast, diced celery, black pepper, and mayonnaise and no other additives. One customer said “It’s great because all too often other places put nuts and/or fruits into the chicken salad.” 
3. Shake Shack Fried Pickles – this new side dish from Shake Shack are a part of Shake Shack's summer menu and are made with a proprietary brine, battered and crispy fried with a side of house-made Shack Ranch for dipping. 
4. Freddy’s Frozen Custard & Steakburgers BBQ Brisket Steakburger – this new limited-time menu item consists of sliced brisket that’s pit-smoked for 16 hours, two steakburger patties with American cheese, onion, and pickle on a King’s Hawaiian bun and smoky BBQ sauce. 
5. Burger King Frozen Strawberry Flavored & Nerds Drinks – these drinks start with a strawberry or blueberry slush base topped with a sprinkle of Nerds candy to offer some variety and fun for the summer. 
6. Jack in the Box Flavored Seasoned Curly Fries – these new fries are an upgraded version of their fan-favorite hot and crispy seasoned curly fries. They’re available in Chili Crisp and BBQ Potato Chip flavor. You can pair them with a Sour Patch Kids beverage like a watermelon shake, slushie, “lemonade” and “twisted soda.” 
7. KFC Chicken & Waffles – this combo is returning to KFC for the first time in five years. You can order a $7 Tenders and Waffle Box, $7 Two-Piece Fried Chicken and Waffle Box, a family feast, and a $25 Chicken & Waffles Fan Favorites Box.
