A tasty way to satisfy your Gremlin appetite!
...thanks for digging that jingle out of my head...
In the 1980s there was a blur of tie-in cereals shaped like every goddamn kid adjacent movie, TV show, video game, etc under the sun, almost all of them were that mouth-shredding yellow Cap'n Crunch type stuff shaped like whatever characters.
Now today, after 35 years of the Gremlins Franchise releasing its last movie in 1990, Jack in the Box for whatever reason decided to collab with Warner Brothers to make a Gremlins themed food box titled the “midnight meal”, as in Gremlins, you cannot feed the titular gremlins pre-transformation after midnight or else they turn into little green monsters.
First thoughts, this seems like just like a regular box with the media franchise slapped onto it.
it’s also not been a day since this came out. I don’t eat at Jack in the Box or any other fast food chains, but I had to get this for personal reasons.
These come with an air freshener for cars, not sure why, but they smell like cinnamon and Gizmo looks cute. The air freshener is double sided with 2 characters called Gizmo and Stripe respectively.
Let’s have a look at the food.
Deep-fried caloric garbage, I’m not sure who would actually eat this at midnight, maybe Stripe would, he eats anything.
