A US fast food chain has responded to one of Meghan Markle's claims from her Netflix series, "With Love, Meghan".
The Duchess of Sussex admitted to her friend Mindy Kaling that she grew up eating "fast food and TV tray dinners, microwavable kids' meals."
Meghan, 43, specifically mentioned Jack in the Box as one of her regular haunts during her California childhood.
Jack in the Box, a US burger chain founded in 1951, quickly capitalised on the royal mention, sharing the clip on its social media pages.

The fast food chain added their mascot, "Jack Box," popping up to celebrate the unexpected name-drop.
The brand captioned its post: "Eat like royalty with my 2 tacos. With love, Jack Box."
The clever marketing response came after Meghan's revelation about her mother's fondness for the chain's tacos.
The fast-food chain's playful response connected its everyday offerings with royal associations.
Meghan's revelation prompted surprise from Kaling, who remarked: "People wouldn't believe that Meghan Markle ate at Jack in the Box".
The Duchess insisted it was true, recalling that her mother, Doria Ragland, particularly enjoyed the West Coast chain's signature tacos.
The fast food revelation came as part of Meghan's candid discussion about her upbringing.

She explained to Kaling that as a "latchkey California kid with a working mum", her diet included "a lot of fast food — Taco Bell, Jack in the Box".
This glimpse into the Duchess's pre-royal life offered a major contrast to her current lifestyle.
