This is a real time post!
I have eaten a lot of Jack in the Box over the years, mainly in Texas.
A month or so ago one opened in Midwest City, and I decided to try it for lunch.
I got an Ultimate Cheeseburger with bacon. I am not really impressed. The burger come with meat and cheese and bacon, and mayo and mustard and catsup (Ian would be appalled!). The meat is mushy and does not have a lot of flavor. The dressings compete for flavor and mask the meat somewhat.
The fries are OK, they don’t really taste like potato.
The iced tea is Gold Coast, and claims to be brewed. It might be, but it has an odd taste.
My check was $7.31. I would come back if someone suggested it, but I’m not going to be doing that.
I think that the standards for this chain have dropped, a lot. They used to make a great cheeseburger.

Why does JB continues to use the little plastic ketchup packets for in-restaurant dining? I’m not a greenie but I don’t think those packets ever disintegrate. “Customer Relations” won’t respond to why they continue using them other than to say that the issue is an internal decision and will not be discussed with anyone, including paying customers! The answer, of course, is that they are the cheapest way to deliver the condiment…and that is all that matters to them.
Now, on to solutions to the world-wide economic issues…
