Designed specifically for sharing (though we won't judge if you attempt a solo challenge), the Mega Munchies Box is a treasure chest of fried perfection. With a staggering 3770 calories, it serves as a complete party platter in a single package.
What makes it the ultimate Game Day choice?

Variety: It typically includes a mix of Jack’s most iconic sides. Think Tiny Tacos, Curly Fries, and Halfsie fries loaded with cheese and bacon. It solves the argument of "what should we order?" by giving you a bit of everything.
-
Shareability: The box format makes it easy to place on the coffee table so everyone can reach in without missing a second of the action.
-
The Sauce Factor: This amount of finger food is the perfect vessel for Jack in the Box’s famous dipping sauces, from Buttermilk Ranch to Creamy Avocado Lime.
Power Up: Red Bull Gaming Box
Price: $14.00 | Calories: 1770 Cal
For the gamers, streamers, and late-night grinders, Jack in the Box has collaborated with the ultimate energy source to create the Red Bull Gaming Box.
At $14.00, this deal is curated for the solo player or the dynamic duo. It combines sustenance with stamina. The meal packs a punch with 1770 calories, ensuring you stay full, while the inclusion of Red Bull ensures you stay alert.
Why choose the Gaming Box?
-
The Energy Boost: Unlike other fast-food meals that might make you feel sluggish (the dreaded "food coma"), this box pairs savory comfort food with the caffeine kick of Red Bull. It’s designed to keep your reaction times sharp.
-
Convenience: It’s a complete kit. You get your main savory items (often tacos or fries) and your drink in one go. It is the perfect setup for a marathon session of Call of Duty or League of Legends.
The Wing Trio: Bar-Quality Wings at Drive-Thru Speed
No Game Day is complete without chicken wings. They are the quintessential sports food—messy, savory, and addictive. Jack in the Box challenges the traditional wing joints with three distinct, crispy, and flavor-packed options.
1. 12pc Buffalo Crispy Chicken Wings
Price: $17.99 | Calories: 910 Cal
For the purists, the Buffalo Crispy Chicken Wings are the standard-bearer. Buffalo sauce is the heartbeat of American sports food, offering that signature vinegar tang followed by a spicy kick that wakes up your palate.
-
Flavor Profile: Tangy, spicy, and bold.
-
Perfect Pairing: These go hand-in-hand with a side of Ranch dipping sauce to cool down the heat.
-
The Experience: At 910 calories for 12 pieces, these wings are breaded to perfection, ensuring that the sauce clings to every bite without making the wing soggy. They deliver that essential "crunch" you crave during halftime.
2. 12pc Garlic Parmesan Crispy Chicken Wings
Price: $17.99 | Calories: 910 Cal
If you prefer savory over spicy, the Garlic Parmesan Crispy Chicken Wings are a sophisticated alternative.
-
Flavor Profile: Rich, buttery garlic notes combined with the salty, nutty flavor of Parmesan cheese.
-
Why We Love Them: These wings are an umami bomb. They offer a gourmet twist on fast-food wings. The garlic aroma alone is enough to distract the opposing team. Like the Buffalo version, they come in at 910 calories, providing a hearty protein punch.
3. 18pc Classic Crispy Chicken Wings Box
Price: $17.99 | Calories: 910 Cal
Sometimes, you just want the crunch without the sauce getting all over your controller or remote. The 18pc Classic Crispy Chicken Wings Box gives you more wings (18 pieces versus 12) for the same price ($17.99), focusing on quantity and pure texture.
-
Flavor Profile: Golden brown, seasoned breading with juicy chicken inside.
-
Versatility: These are the "blank canvas" of the wing world. Because they aren't pre-sauced, they are perfect for dipping. You can mix and match Jack’s variety of dipping cups—BBQ, Honey Mustard, Sweet & Sour—creating a custom flavor experience with every bite.
-
Value King: Getting 18 pieces makes this the highest volume meat option in the wing category.
