Customer Feedback

When the shake first appeared on Whataburger's menu, customers raced to restaurants to get a taste of the seasonal treat.

Generally, feedback for the shake was positive on Reddit, signaling that Whataburger should bring back the dessert once again this year.

"It was the best shake I've had from Whataburger, though I'm a picky eater so I've never tried anything besides chocolate and vanilla before this shake," one Redditor shared.

Another commented: "Honestly, one of the better shakes we've had."
