Welcome to Gaia! ::

Jack In The Box now offers a bacon shake! It is an unlisted menu item, and you have to ask for it, but is it worth it?
Back when I didn't care about what I was eating I would go to Steak-And-Shake and order a chocolate shake with bacon crumbles. I won't lie, it was amazing, and probably better than the one JITB offers. Here is the nutrition facts for it:

According to the Jack in the Box website, the bacon shake is made with real vanilla ice cream, bacon flavored syrup, whipped topping, and of course, a maraschino cherry on top. True bacon lovers may be put off by the fact that the shake is flavored with an artificial bacon syrup and not the real deal, but the syrup and flavor should be the least of any one’s concerns.


The amount of calories in these shakes are insane! For a 24 oz. shake you would consume 1,081 calories, 37 grams of saturated fat, 3 grams of trans fat, and 108 grams of sugar!

If there is a JITB in your area and you end up trying one, please let me know how it is.

Bacon syrup? emotion_drool I don't have a problem with the flavoring being artificial as long as it tastes good. It's not so much an insane amount of calories as an insane serving size. It's basically a pound and a half of ice cream, an amount I don't think most people eat at a sitting.

Wish we had a Jack-in-the-Box near me, I haven't seen one since I was little.

I think they are only in 20 states if I remember correctly.
I was like, "what the hell?!" at first.

But now I'm curious to try it...and I hope I can have a chocolate cake burger with it. biggrin
The amount of calories in it is astounding. D: It better taste really good for that amount of calories.

Maybe Jack In The Box is a southern/west coast thing!??

Like, who would have ever heard of Wawa if they weren't in the east? rofl
I saw that on Food Network On Diner's Drive Ins and Dives and idk...good if you like bacon. My friend dips her french fries in her chocolate shake but...I guess everyone's different lol
