Black pepper burger >>>
Buttery jack is okay too, tho. Wish there were more locations around here, the only one near me is like a 20-30 minute drive, I stop there every time I'm in the area though.

Jack in the Box is my number one stop if I'm looking for a breakfast sandwich. If I'm in the mood for a burger though, I'd probably go to either In n Out or Whataburger first.

lmao
I like how Jack-in-the-Box isn't allowed to advertise their tacos as "beef tacos" since they are predominantly soy. So they just ran with it and just call them "tacos."
Yet they also can't call them vegetarian, because they are fried in lard.
I love Whataburger, but they do have some bad locations/times I've found. I really only get a burger from them if I'm truly itching for that Whataburger taste. The one nearest me always has very dry and sometimes cold burgers. Their chicken is always on point, though.
Their tacos are good for a dollar.
I much prefer jack's breakfast than any other fast food.

That pepper jack burger was pretty good but they got rid of it. I've never really been a fan of their burgers, I usually go for their tacos/breakfast or if I do get it a burger it's usually the sourdough jack or spicy chicken.

What the hell is going on here? People LIKE Jack in the Box?
I'm just as shocked as when I found out people like Carl's Jr, AKA Hardees.

The value proposition of getting food at Carl's Jr is better than nearly every other place out there.
They opened a Carl's Jr down the street about a year ago. I was shocked that people were actually causing traffic because the drive through line was spilling out into the street. I think a huge part of it was because it was a "new" fast food chain for the region.
I tried it only once and literally threw up. Never had it again.

The same thing happened with Dunkin Donuts near me.

Buttery jacks are the best fast food burger I have ever had
It eventually leveled out around here, but it must have taken about a year. How about with your Dunkin Donuts?
Personally, I can't stand Carl's Jr or Dunkin' Donuts. Give me Whataburger and Shipley's Donuts every time lol.
The South is the former Confederacy, lets not dance around the issue.
They never completed their nationwide expansion because of it. I still have never seen one.

Not to mention when they were the real Hardees their breakfasts were great. Their steak and chicken biscuits were to die for. I know about a year ago when I was working near a Carl Jrs they had actually brought back the steak biscuits. The steak was vastly thinner and cheaper tasting then when Hardees had them.
As someone who lives in Texas, Texas is less culturally similar to the Deep South and more its own thing. What I'm trying to say is that Texas isn't as Southern as it is Texan. Texas is Texas.
But back on topic, yeah Jack in the Box has gotten noticeably better recently. I stopped getting food from there in the mid 2000's because their burgers were consistently burnt and salty as fuck, but I tried it again this year and was pleased to find that they have higher standards now.
Whataburger is still better though.
Yeah, and you can keep... whatever Mississippi has going for it

It went from a line of cars almost out to the street to absolutely no business.
It seemingly happened in only a couple of weeks.
Speaking of whataburger how's their new sweet and spicy bacon burger?
DFW gaf here
On topic - jack in the box is okay, their burgers are pretty average but their curly fries are god tier

Sir, you lie. The buttery jacks are fucking awesome, just messy. As a matter of fact, most of Jack in the Box's burgers are tasty.
Oh my fucking god YES! I had forgotten about that. That was so damn GOOD! I also would like them to add a banana shake. I want a fresh banana shake, dammit!

They are fucking AMAZING
And Burger King awful?
Jack in the box terrible also?
None of you guys in here can fast food.
Whoppers are incredible.
Some people here just seem to think all fast food is terrible.
I don't get it either.
If it's the only stop around in a one horse town, sure.

One of the highlights to visiting my mom in Tallahassee is hitting up Whataburger. That place is no joke. It's far from the best burger you can get but in terms of real fast food it is pretty god tier.

Speaking of burgers, love Hardee's new natural burger ( grass fed/anti biotic free beef).
