Lunch @ Jack in the Box, & A Walk Down Memory Lane in Harlingen, Texas

Eric and I don't need to go to Jack in the Box to check it off QSR's List of Largest Restaurateurs by Sales.  We want to reminisce about dating 40 plus years ago in Schenectady, New York.

Eric grew up in Schenectady and Jack in the Box was a regular haunt because of its cheap Tacos.  In the mid 1970s Tacos cost 15 cents each.  This meal was well within Eric's meager teenage budget.





I was included on Taco Runs
while we were dating.












The 1970s rolled into the 1980s and Jack in the Box left its downtown Schenectady location.  Burger King took over the building and continues to feed hungry customers these many years later.




The menu has
expanded.

Fast Food was
very basic 40
some years ago.




I don't remember Jack in the Box
serving breakfast.

I was in college & stopping
for breakfast wasn't part of
my morning routine.

This Soda Machine is
fun to use.




Eric, my favorite subject,
patiently poses for
a picture.

















Eric opens a Hot
Sauce packet to
spice up his 
Tacos.

I got an Ultimate
Burger & Fries.



Eric bites into his Taco and memories flood back....  The deep fried Taco Shells hold up nicely as he relishes the beefy, vegetable interior.  The cashier recommended the Ultimate Bacon Cheese Burger.  It is a great choice.  I love the bun and the loaded up burger is cooked perfectly.  The Fries have been cooked very well...  I think they stand up well in comparison to McDonald's Fries.

Jack in the Box is the 31st restaurant we've eaten at on the QSR List of 50 Largest Restaurants by Sales...  There are only 19 restaurants left to visit before completing this quest.
