\"Jack<\/a><\/p>\n

When I put the Jack in the Box Grande Sausage Breakfast Burrito on the table, I said out loud, \u201cHoly crap! It’s as large as my forearm.”<\/p>\n

Then I thought, \u201cHoly crap! Do I have small forearms? Do I have weak forearms? Are my small forearms the reason why I could never win at arm wrestling? Why is this pen so heavy?\u201d<\/p>\n

After I stopped being self-conscious, I peeled back the foil the burrito was wrapped in and then I peeled back the flour tortilla to reveal the burrito’s sausage, scrambled eggs, hash browns, bacon crumbles, shredded pepper jack cheese, cheddar cheese sauce, and creamy sriracha sauce. <\/p>\n

The burrito also comes with a container of fire roasted salsa. But if you decide to spend your hard earned money on a Jack in the Box Grande Sausage Breakfast Burrito, grab that container of salsa, throw it as far as you can, yell, \u201cSuck it, salsa! Your services are not needed at this time!\u201d, and then get ticketed for littering.<\/p>\n

This breakfast burrito doesn\u2019t need the chunky condiment thanks to the sriracha sauce, which has a mild garlicky and chili pepper flavor. If you do use the salsa, you\u2019ll find it chompblocks the sriracha\u2019s flavor. While the sriracha has a lot of flavor, it doesn\u2019t have much heat. So if you\u2019re a fan of spicy sriracha, you\u2019ll be one sad rooster.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll also be one sad piggie if you were hoping the bacon crumbles would have your mouth bursting with salty, greasy, and porky goodness. They don\u2019t, but the sausage does. <\/p>\n

Oh wait. One more. Sad animal.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll also be one sad cow if you were hoping the shredded pepper jack would bring a little heat and peppery flavor. It doesn\u2019t. The cheddar cheese sauce definitely dominates the other cheese.<\/p>\n

\"Jack<\/a><\/p>\n

The scrambled eggs didn\u2019t really stand out, flavor-wise, which I expected. But my burrito came with a good serving of it, which helped the burrito look as large as my weak forearms. <\/p>\n

Being wrapped in a flour tortilla with sauces and warm proteins and then all that being wrapped in a foil wrapper, I expected the hash browns to be soggy from sitting in that saucy sauna. But they still had a bit of crispness to them as I ate my way through the burrito.<\/p>\n

Although the bacon and pepper jack cheese don\u2019t add much to the Jack in the Box Grande Sausage Breakfast Burrito, the sausage, sriracha, eggs, cheddar cheese sauce, and hash browns more than make up for them. The breakfast burrito has a lot of flavor and a variety of textures, and, overall, it makes me one happy human with small forearms.<\/p>\n

\nPurchased Price:<\/b> $3.89*
\nSize:<\/b> N\/A
\nPurchased at:<\/b> Jack in the Box
\nRating:<\/b> 7 out of 10
\nPros:<\/b> Makes my forearms look small. Creamy sriracha sauce has enough flavor that the included salsa is unnecessary. Hash browns are still a little crispy. Sausage provides all the salty, greasy, and porky goodness.
\nCons:<\/b> Makes my forearms look small. Bacon crumbles and pepper jack cheese don’t add much. Sriracha lacks heat. Sad animals.<\/p>\n
