๐ŸŒฎ๐Ÿคก Jack in the Box: See-Through Tacos, Clown Mascot, and Legendary Curly Fries ๐Ÿคก๐ŸŒฎ

This week, we went toย Jack in the Box to try some burgers, and got so much more than we bargained for. I'm joined by Honey Butter Popcorn from the Ragmop & Goose Puppet Adoption Agency and we went deep on the Jack in the Box menu. From a wild history including a name change and blowing up their old mascot, to Yelp reviews that find one specific employee very funny, you're not going to want to miss this one!
