    Jack In The Box Vegan Options  

    Jack in the Box has limited vegan options, but with a bit of customization, you can still find something to enjoy. Here are some options:

    Teriyaki Rice Bowl

    The Teriyaki rice bowl typically features flame-grilled chicken strips with veggies, white rice, and a sweet and savory teriyaki sauce. However, you can easily customize it to be vegan by asking them to leave out the chicken and add extra veggies instead.

    The veggies pair wonderfully with the vegan-friendly teriyaki sauce. Ordering in person is cheaper because they replace the chicken with veggies at no extra cost. However, if you order through the app, they charge for the extra veggies without reducing the price for skipping the chicken, which is disappointing.

    Salads

    You can customize salads at Jack in the Box to make them vegan. Simply skip the meat and cheese, and pair the salad with one of their vegan-friendly dressings. This way, you can enjoy a vegan salad tailored to your preferences.

    You can also ask for extra veggies and pickles to make your salad bowl more satisfying. Simply choose

    • Garden Salad: Order without chicken, cheese, and croutons. Substitute the dressing with Balsamic Vinaigrette. This salad comes with mixed greens, grape tomatoes, and carrots.
    • Southwest Salad: Order without chicken or cheese. Substitute the dressing with Balsamic Vinaigrette. It comes with mixed greens, tomatoes, carrots, roasted corn, black beans, and tortilla strips.
    • Side Salad: Order without croutons. Choose Balsamic Vinaigrette as the dressing. It comes with crisp iceberg and romaine lettuce, grape tomatoes, and carrots.

    Tip: You can also order vegan dipping sauces like teriyaki or sweet and sour to flavor your salad.

    vegan salads.

    Burger or Sandwich

    The vegan Impossible Burger and Unchicken Sandwich remain a dream for many vegans. Although they were tested at selected locations in the U.S., such as Monterey, Salinas in California, and Reno, they have not been officially launched. Unfortunately, there has been no progress on this front.

    With no dedicated vegan burger or sandwich on the menu, you can customize a burger or sandwich by requesting no meat or cheese and adding fresh and grilled veggies, pickles, and vegan dipping sauces.
