Jack in the Box

Growing up in Oregon I used to frequent Jack in the Box, a Carls Jr. type burger joint. So, once we had decided to incorporate the shake quest into our Oregon vacation my first thought was stoppin' by Jack in the Box for their Oreo shake. and when

I got their tacos for 2 for a dollar. yes, their tacos. Although they are a burger and fries joint they also sell tacos. They don't have any other Mexican food, but they've got tacos. Cheap tacos. They're not great, but when you're paying 50 cents for one you can't raise the bar too high.

After Christmas we decided to visit the outlet malls in Woodburn and get some shoes for me and a purse for Naomi (we actually just ended up buying a bunch of baby clothes). But it was lunch time so we had to decide where to go. Luckily there was a Jack In the Box close, so we were able to work in our quest!

Once they handed us the Oreo shake through the drive-thru window we were impressed. Not only was it covered with whipped cream, but there was a cherry on top. This was definitely the best looking fast-food shake! We gave it a 5 out of 5 for the impressive presentation!

The texture was alright, but i'd definitely say you should get a spoon if you order their shake. I almost gave myself a hernia trying to suck the Oreo chunks through the small straw. With the stipulation that you need a spoon it wasn't too shabby in the texture department, giving it a 3.

The larger of the sizes came up to about 4 bucks, and without sales tax it was a pretty good deal for what you got. You need to be hungry or willing to share to finish this puppy off, and its definitely dressed to impress. It got a 4.5 out of 5.

The taste was ... okay. It wasn't super vanilla-y, but the Oreo flavor seemed somewhat overwhelmed by the ice-cream. With that being said it's worth a try. It scored 3 out of 5.

The final tally was:

Presentation - 5
Price - 4.5
Taste - 3
Texture - 3.5
Overall - 4
