Chicken McWraps

  McDonalds just recently started some new "premium" chicken wraps, so
over the last few days I've tried them. My first thought is they are
trying to compete with places like Subway, but I really don't think
they are as good as Subway's.  I figure I'll go through the wraps in
the order I tried them. I'll first describe what they should come as'
then how I ordered them, and lastly how I got it, and my thoughts.
    The first one I tried was the chicken & bacon McWrap. They all
come either grilled or crispy. This one has the chicken, bacon,
shredded cheddar jack cheese, tomatoes, spring mix lettuce, shredded
lettuce, creamy garlic sauce, and they all come on a 10 inch steamed
tortilla. The only change I made to this one was no tomatoes, and
surprisingly I actually got it that way. One of the first things I
noticed was the fact that the bacon was really limp, and I'm one who
likes bacon more on the crispy side. I'm not sure if it was just the
fact that someone didn't cook our bacon right, or if the steamed
tortilla made it limp. As for the taste, it works fairly well the way
it is. My biggest thing is I could barely taste the garlic sauce. So
assuming it had the correct amount on it, I would suggest getting
extra added.
    The second one I tried was the chicken & ranch McWrap. This one
has tomatoes, cucumbers, spring mix, shredded lettuce, cheddar jack
cheese, seasoned rice vinegar, and buttermilk ranch. For this one I
ordered it with no tomatoes or cucumbers, and again I was surprised to
get it the way I ordered it. Again the flavors seemed to work well
together. Again assuming it as made correctly I think the vinegar was
a little overpowering, ad the ranch was too faint. For my tastes I
would suggest either light or no vinegar, and a little extra ranch.
    I tried the sweet chili McWrap last. This one usually comes with
cucumbers, spring mix, shredded lettuce, cheddar jack cheese, sweet
chili sauce, and the creamy garlic sauce. For this one I ordered it
with no cucumbers, and light sweet chili sauce. Unfortunately this one
they really messed up. What I got was the wrap with the cucumbers on
it, what appeared to be extra sweet chili sauce, and bacon which
doesn't even come on it, and I didn't ask for. So now its really hard
for me to say how it would have tasted if it would have been made
correctly. For me the cucumbers just doesn't work on it. Again the
bacon was too limp, so I really think its the steamed tortilla causing
this. The sweet chili sauce was way overpowering, this is the main
reason I asked for it with light sweet chili. And I couldn't taste the
garlic sauce at all. If I ever order this one again, I'll have to
definitely ask for it the way I originally did, and I think it will
taste a lot better.
    Overall if you are looking for a healthier option at McDonalds, I
would suggest any of these wraps grilled. Or for just a different
choice I would suggest the crispy version.  I think the changes I
suggested would make them taste better, but if you like any of the
items I removed, then try the wraps with them on. So surprisingly I am
suggesting people eat at McDonalds, and even at the location I work
at.
