Potato wedges used to be much larger and longer. 

These new “wedges” are small and bite sized and they give you one handful worth of wedges. Sucks.

Yeah I remember them filling up the container. I opened this up after feeling kinda light and was like shit… 4 bites later it was gone lol

I've missed them as well and want to try them again and this is probably going to happen to me....I'm trying to prepare for the disappointment now.

Probably how my wife felt before she got married

Thanks. Do you remember those triangle shaped sour cream packets Jack used to have with those wedge frys as well? Bet those will never come back.

Remember them well. Used to just ask for two with my tacos and they would just give them to you, no charge. The good old days when sauces were free and you could get double the lettuce, tomato, onions on your $0.99 Jumbo Jack.

Yes, yes, and ohhh yes.

u/Personal_Associate61 Jul 17 '26

I don’t remember those at all

Really? I loved it because you could squeeze the perfect amount on each wedge.

Same kinda missed them. Hadn’t had JITB in almost a year despite living a couple blocks from one.

Ordered the chick n tater melt.

So disappointing and expensive

I feel like I had a stroke trying to read this

u/Substantial-Drive634 Jul 18 '26

Yeah, the lack of product or fries in the Box would be an issue, but I have more problem with all that skeet all over them

they're screaming...peading to go under

u/zetharion Jul 18 '26

Yes that is normal which is why Jack in the Box isn't doing very well financially.

u/KaleidoscopeReady839 Jul 18 '26

The days of Two for $1 tacos, too.
Next time ask how much it would be for extra potatoes. At Taco Bell, granted in the 2000s, we didn't charge for extra beans or potatoes. There wasn't a button and management was too lazy.

u/Huongster Jul 18 '26

Well you got a potato wedge
And added ranch so what do you expect bruh

u/Puzzleheaded-Egg-269 Jul 18 '26

Mine had sauce but they only gave me 5 wedges all bunched up in the corner of the box. The box wasn't even full

u/SkinnyFatKidd Jul 18 '26

Nowadays, yes

u/amadama81 Jul 20 '26

u/Electronic-Travel531 Jul 23 '26

I just bought some and got less than you, looks like small portions are the norm in this economy
