Jack-in-the-Box (JB) has, in my opinion, the closest thing to a "taco shop taco" of all traditional fast-food vendors. This taco goes way back. It has a cult following. I get the feeling that a JB supplier literally assembles these tacos elsewhere, freezes them, and ships them to JB. When you order one, the JB cook simply dunks two frozen tacos in a deep fryer and then places them in a small paper bag. I include this taco for these reasons:
- corn tortilla
- some kind of shredded or ground spam type of meat (or soy/meat mixture)
- a bit of cheese
- it's wholly deep fried
- simply tastes killer and is dripping hot grease
- the overall ghetto-factor of this taco is almost off the chart
There was even a time when JB was going to drop this taco, and there seemed to be a major revolt by their loyal taco-eating customers. I've heared of people ordering/sending these tacos through the mail to craved eaters. I won't ever do a formal review of the JB taco, but it's a reliable standby when you don't have access to a true taco shop. Caveat: no beans or rice with this taco.
