The Mc Donalds’ snack wrap is out since last month. I am not a big friend of Mickey D but I will try whatever that’s new. I first though it is the same as the chicken fajita. However, it is totally different. It feels good in the mouth because tortilla is soft and chicken is crunchy. There is a lot of ranch, which make it kind of salty. It is small and I need at least three of them for lunch.

Basically, the snack wrap contain

1 piece of Mcdonalds chicken select (a piece of chicken breast & rips meat breaded and deep fried)
Some Cheddar jack cheese and Monterey Jack cheese
A little bit of lettuce
Flour Tortilla
Ranch or honey mustard sauce

So the kid behind the counter place the chicken in the center of the tortilla, spread the cheese and lettuce around the tortilla, use the sauce gun to shoot a splash ranch on it (that gun is cool!). After that he rolls the tortilla to make the wrap.

The snack wrap’s nutrition fact

330 calories
16 gram of fat (24% of daily value)
4.5 gram of saturated fat (24%)
30 mg of cholesterol (10%)
780mg of sodium (32%) WOW
33 grams of carbs
2 gram of fiber (I doubt it)
12 gram of protein

So the chicken is as bad as the burger. Actually there is nothing special and you can make a much healthier version at home using

Whole wheat tortilla
Grill chicken breast
Romaine lettuces
Low fat cheese
Low fat ranch salad dressing
