News: New McWraps Arrive at McDonald's

McDonald's adds McWraps as a permanent new addition to their menu. A bit like giant Snack Wraps, McWraps are available in three varieties that each feature fresh vegetables, grilled or crispy slices of chicken breast, shredded cheese, and sauce, wrapped in a flour tortilla for convenient portable eating.

The available flavors are Chicken & Bacon, Sweet Chili Chicken, and Chicken & Ranch. Regardless of the flavor, each McWrap carries a suggested price of $3.99.

The Chicken & Bacon comes with your choice of grilled or crispy chicken breast strips, bacon, two half slices of tomato, spring greens, shredded lettuce, shredded cheddar jack cheese, and a creamy garlic sauce.

The Sweet Chili Chicken features grilled or crispy chicken breast strips, cucumber slices (a first for McDonald's), spring greens, shredded lettuce, sweet chili sauce, and creamy garlic sauce.

Ordering the Chicken & Ranch gets you grilled or crispy chicken breast strips, two half slices of tomato, cucumber slices, spring greens, shredded lettuce, shredded cheddar jack cheese, seasoned rice vinegar, and buttermilk ranch sauce.

While the McWrap is new to the US, it was first launch in 2004 in Europe and has since spread to Mexico and South America. They were tested in two cities in the US last year.

McWraps are generally offered as a healthier alternative to the more standard fast food fare, like burgers and fries, at McDonald's.

  1. Four bucks? I could get four spicy McChickens for that price.

  2. I agree. I usually get a couple of things off the dollar menu eat one and bring the other home and eat it later. My paycheck has taken a dive and the dollar menu is about all I'm willing to pay for.
