Jack In The Box does serve curly fries. The ones near me don't serve root beer, however. I seem to live in a Highly Caffeinated Zone.

I've never even heard of a Jack in the Box before reading this thread...

Am I missing out on something good? :(

Really?? :o Is JitB a national chain, or is it only western, like In-N-Out?


It's not like eating Jack in the Box will open up new doors for you; the only door you'll be opening is the bathroom door. :P Jk, I like JitB. But seriously, it's just another fast food chain. Kind of like people from California probably haven't eaten at Ruby Tuesday's or Cici's Pizza. You couldn't get an all-you-can-eat pizza-pasta-salad dinner for $4 out here in a million years :rolleyes: ;)


I thought the drive-thru could have been Carl's Jr., but then they don't serve curly fries. So it's probably just an "enigmatic fictional fast food joint", as SmileyGirl put it so well. :D

You've never heard of McDonald's main competitor?

It's a major fast-food chain. Whether you're missing out on anything good kinda depends on your opinion of fast food.

No...:S

But I don't consider myself any kind of fast-food afficianado either, so.. :lookaround:

I've heard of the Jack in the Box, but there aren't any around here, so I've never eaten there. As a matter of fact, there aren't any in Ohio or most of the midwest.
Oh by the way, I've cracked the code.

I would say Burger King and Wendy's are far bigger competitors than Jack-in-the-Box, a chain that is limited to only a select region of the country.

I think it would be awesome to make a short film based on TITDT...

Actually, California does have ONE Ruby Tuesday's, someplace in the Bay Area. We also have, to make up for the lack, quite a few Ruby's Diners and Rubio's Baja Grills. :lol:

Upon further Web-searching, I think the Drive Thru in question must be a Jack In The Box after all. The corporate website lists root beer, so some of the locations must sell it. Therefore, for your further edumacation, I provide the following menu items and calorie counts. I'll get back to you later with the price of this order. :P

Hamburger with Cheese 350 (don't know yet whether it comes with onions)
Chicken Sandwich 400
Seasoned Curly Fries 400
Barq's® Root Beer 20 oz 180
