WILDERNESS OF SIN — A construction project that had initially attracted the interest of wandering Israelites left everyone disappointed after it was revealed to be the location of a brand new Jack in the Box. Now, the local Hebrews are claiming they will just stick with the manna they've been eating daily.
"Eh... it's just a Jack in the Box," said Gaddiel from the tribe of Zebulun. "I think I'll just continue picking this flaky stuff off the ground every day for the rest of my life instead."
Jack in the Box, a restaurant that serves fast food cheeseburgers and other Canaanite cuisine, is reportedly so lame and uninspiring to the Jews that they're starting to think all the manna and quail they've gotten tired of is actually a pretty sweet deal.
"I mean, this manna isn't a cheeseburger, but neither is whatever this is," Joshua said while inspecting a Jumbo Jack. "Oh well... let's move on."
"Did you know that if you take two manna loaves and put a quail in between them it's like a giant chicken sandwich?"
Others have not been so content in their circumstances.
"Why?!" local Israelite Dathan cried out. "Is it because there were no graves in Egypt that you have taken us away to a Jack in the Box in the wilderness? Why have you dealt with us in this way, bringing us out of Egypt?"
According to sources, Moses rolled his eyes in response to the lament of the people and did not bother to take their dispute to the Lord.
At publishing time, the faith of the Israelites was restored when an In-N-Out opened across the street from Jack in the Box.
