The Rise and Fall of McDonald's Snack Wrap
The McDonald's Snack Wrap was a beloved fast food item, offering a perfect blend of a lighter option and a crave-worthy late-night snack. It was small, affordable, and addictive, quickly becoming a favorite on McDonald's menu. The original Snack Wrap featured big flavors in a soft flour tortilla: crisp lettuce, shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese, your choice of sauces, and most importantly, a juicy strip of chicken from the same legendary supply used for the fan-favorite Chicken Selects. Discover how this popular menu item vanished from McDonald's restaurants. #McDonald's #SnackWrap #fastfood #ChickenSelects See show notes: https://inlet.fm/weird-history-food/episodes/69b6f3b44baf4ca1e835ec1b Learn more about your ad choices.
