I’ve been chomping at the bit to try the Jack in the Box that popped up (get it – haha) in my old neighborhood of Pleasant Ridge since they tore down my favorite gas station…finally I was in the area with some free time!

I wasn’t really hungry – but for the blog – I had to try something – since I had 20 minutes to kill. And the sign was intriguing with two tacos for 99 cents!
The menu is pretty big and I figured I should also try a burger – since it is what they’re known for…
The drive thru is pretty interesting because it’s got a window into their kitchen as you drive by. You can see all the microwaves and drawers (yes – that’s what your view is of).
The burger was fine – nothing too amazing – but similar to a Wendy’s single really. I liked it fine…
Oooooh tacos

Why did I list all that out? Cuz that was the oddest damn taco I have ever eaten in my entire life! It was stale, crispy, greasy, beany, saucy and just odd and a slice of American cheese to top it off! I was just so boggled – I thought there was no way that it had actual beef in it – but it does! The strangest thing was that I really thought it was kinda gross – and then after half a taco – I had to have more!!!! I literally set it down and thought I was done…but no – I had to eat the rest! Then I ate the other one! What the hell? Those are some odd f’ing tacos! I’ve heard from others they are pretty addictive…uh-oh!
Why Should You Go There? You obviously have to try the tacos. They’re open 24 hours – so head over now – or at 3am – or whenever!
