Last time we talked about Jack in the Box was when I gave the Waffle Breakfast Sandwich a try a couple of months back. If you’ll recall, I found it to be quite delicious. It also incorporated the two best things about JITB: 1) Their delectable breakfast offerings, which include real fried eggs, and 2) [...]
