A longtime favorite of The Sister,
McDonald's Crispy Ranch Snack Wrap have done quite well for themselves offering a lighter menu item for those with smaller appetites, as well as an alternative to burgers. They're promoted as food on the go and are a simple mix of a Chicken Selects Breast Strip, shredded Jack and Cheddar cheeses, shredded lettuce, and a Ranch sauce wrapped up in an open-ended tortilla.
The resultant Snack Wrap costs
$1.49.
As a favorite of The Sister, I've seen quite a few of these and have taken a few bites here and there (sharing is caring, right?!) so I can say fairly confidently that the Crispy Ranch Snack Wrap tends toward inconsistency in the taste department. Sometimes, the ingredient ratios are just off: too much Ranch or not enough lettuce and cheese.

But the main offender is the chicken; some pieces are much bigger than others; one time I got such a short piece that a full quarter of my Snack Wrap was just lettuce, cheese, sauce, and tortilla. A mouthful of salad and tortilla is not so tasty.
On this occasion though, the Snack Wrap was spot on and very tasty; the chicken was seasoned well, crisp, and juicy, if a little skinny. It even looked pretty good to boot. Now, if only they always turned out like this...

Thanks! I would try theimpulsivebuy.com or grubgrade.com for more fast food reviews. animmovablefeast.blogspot.com and wouldibuyitagain.com are more localized but also do the occasional fast food reviews.
ReplyDeleteI feel like the pieces of chicken have been more uniform lately, they seem thinner and longer so that you get some chicken in every bite.
ReplyDeleteGreat recommendations, I visit grubgrade almost as much as your site :)

ReplyDeleteI think if it wasn't for Mcdonalds making this snack wrap, they probably wouldn't have been as popular and able to sell these at the height that they do.
