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?

    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

    Jack in the box is guaranteed diarrhea. It’s so bad. Just a testament to how good a marketing campaign can be. Carries such a bad product.

        Jack is pretty crap overall but there are specific things that I like. Sourdough Jack, onion rings, jalapeño poppers, and some of the breakfast sandwiches, while my wife loves the tacos and crispy chicken sandwich.

        Point is, most people find a few items they really like and/or have nostalgia for. Might be worth giving another chance. It also depends on the restaurant. The last place we lived, the local Jack was horrible. Where we are now, the Jack is the best I’ve ever had.

    Where else can I get a burger, tacos, egg rolls, and churros at 3am on a Thursday night after closing down the bars?

    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.
