And by god was it absolutely terrible. New restaurant, clean on the inside, tried 3 different things and I have to wonder, does anyone actually like jack-in-the-box? How are they still in business?

Deep. Fried. Tacos.

With American cheese.

2 for a dollar.

Only really good after midnight or the day after… But they are amazing during the right timeframe.

Probably closer to 1.99 now. Was 3 for a dollar in the 90s.

It helps to first be higher than giraffe pussy, then you get one of their late night munchie boxes (I like the burger with grilled cheeses for buns, or the chicken melt with hashbrowns on it) and several extra shitty tacos.

Here’s my Jack-in-the-box story: In high school, Jack-in-the-box was just opening in our town for the first time. My friend group used to go there for the $1 Jumbo Jack. It was a first taste of adult freedom. Positive memories haha

I mean, it’s not great, but it’s not that awful. Pretty good for ending a night out and it’s cheap.

Is Wendy’s better? Yes, but go to a Wendy’s at 2am trying to gullet a Dave’s Double and you’re going to be sick. Jack has burgers that won’t upset your stomach and don’t sit as heavy.

My digestive organs, for the past several hours, have been ceaselessly screaming bloody murder at me. You must have an iron gut
