Heavenly Coffee?
Except - There are No Nuts in Chock full o'Nuts
Despite the nutty name, there are no actual nuts in Chock full o’Nuts coffee! The brand started as a nut shop in New York City in 1926, but during the Great Depression, the owner switched gears and started serving affordable meals, including coffee.
By the 1950s, the coffee became so popular that it eclipsed the nuts entirely! Today, Chock full o’Nuts is all about that “Heavenly Coffee”—no nuts required.
