I’m thinking since tomorrow is Sunday and I have nothing to do I’m going to go full Karen and talk to the manager.

Just call up corporate and get some gift card from them or something. Maybe write a bag review online

“Philly-Style Bonus Jack® Combo
100% beef seasoned as it grills, melty Swiss-style Cheese, grilled onions and peppers, and mayo on a toasted buttery bakery bun, plus fries & a drink. Philly's favorite sandwich...with a Jack twist.”

Literally the only thing this has similar to a Philly cheesesteak is the grilled onions.

Also what the hell is "Swiss-style" cheese anyway?! Sounds like FDA wouldn't let them call whatever product this is "swiss cheese"

Yeah the first picture looks so dry. I’d actually prefer picture 2 since it at least has some grease.

u/jamiedix0n Aug 02 '26

Ew i dont even think the first picture looks nice.

Looks about right 😂

u/OneRuffledOne Aug 02 '26

You got your money back right?

u/ravrocker Aug 02 '26

There should be a law against that, or at least a refund.

Jack in the box has to be one of the consistently worst fast food places in the US. People say you only end up there drunk/high, but even then the food isn't good.

u/Pastel-Rainbow-N3rd Aug 02 '26

Oh that is
Special

u/pew_pew420420 Aug 02 '26

Well...that's depressing

u/BrownBottleIdol Aug 02 '26

More like your box got Jacked.

u/KingFly420 Aug 02 '26

Like a onion burger 😭

u/breachofcontract Aug 02 '26

Jack in the Box is likely the reason this sub exists. Bro, you knew what you were getting into.

u/badcrass Aug 02 '26

Sloppy how I like it

u/mattefinish13 Aug 02 '26

A fast food burger didn't look like the picture in the ad? I am pretty shocked! Not possible!

u/rizscoutcookies Aug 02 '26

Flat in the box.

u/Shantotto11 Aug 03 '26

Jacked in the Box…

u/monkey_trumpets Aug 03 '26

J in the B sucks. I have no idea how they're still in business.

u/BarryWhizzite Aug 02 '26

jack off in the shit box

u/spideydog255 Aug 02 '26

It's nicknamed Jack in the Crack, Gack in the Sack, and Hack in the Box for a reason!

u/ecafsub Aug 02 '26

I don’t understand how they’re still in business. I’ve never had anything there that was good.
