Mashed ranked the Cookout Banana Nut milkshake dead last, 37th of 37. A fan reviewer said it tastes like banana bread fresh from the oven. The 32.1 oz cup blends banana and walnuts in vanilla for 704 calories and typically costs $3.99, and Cook Out's chart lists milk, peanuts and tree nuts for it.
Is Banana Nut a banana bread shake or a mouthful of walnuts?
Both reviews exist. Mashed said so many crushed walnuts go in that the crunch is plain overwhelming, a mouthful of walnuts with a little milkshake. The Daily Meal ranked it 36th and found it lackluster compared with the other banana shakes: mashed banana, walnuts and vanilla in a mellow, even-keeled flavor. The fan scorer at cookoutmilkshakereviews.com, by contrast, scored it 14 by its category points, with flavor the top mark, and said it tastes like banana bread, with the walnuts offsetting the sweetness of the bananas.

How does Banana Nut differ from the other banana shakes?
It is the nut-laden option. Next to the fruit banana shakes, which each carry 16 grams of fat, Banana Nut reaches 27.
| Banana shake | Calories | Total fat | Sodium | Fiber |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Banana Nut | 704 | 27 g | 412 mg | 3 g |
| Banana Berry | 671 | 16 g | 440 mg | 3 g |
| Banana Pineapple | 566 | 16 g | 412 mg | 2 g |
| Fresh Banana | 538 | 16 g | 412 mg | 2 g |
Sodium is the same 412 milligrams as Fresh Banana and Banana Pineapple, among the lowest on the menu.
Why does the allergen chart list peanuts?
Our allergen chart lists milk, peanuts and tree nuts for Banana Nut. The walnuts are tree nuts, and the peanut listing means anyone with either allergy should skip it.
Is the Cookout Banana Nut milkshake the right banana?
For banana bread fans, yes. Reviewers who want banana flavor to lead prefer Banana Pudding, and Banana Fudge brings more contrast. Order Banana Nut when you want walnut crunch and a lighter weight than the 853-calorie Walnut shake.
