Overview
- The crown-shaped nuggets returned to U.S. Burger King menus on Tuesday, June 2, as a limited-time offering that will be sold while supplies last.
- Customers can buy an 8-piece order or get the nuggets in a King Jr. Meal priced at $3.99, with pricing and availability varying by location.
- A Crayola co-branded King Jr. Meal that includes a four-pack of crayons, a colorable crown and a themed meal bag will roll out starting Tuesday, June 9.
- Reaction online has been lively but mixed, with many fans expressing nostalgia and others skeptical that the current recipe will match the original product from before it was pulled in 2011.
- Burger King frames the revival as part of a wider 2026 push that included recent Whopper updates, using limited-time nostalgia plays to test demand and drive short-term traffic.
