This Budget-Friendly Fast Food Snack Wrap From Sonic Isn't Worth The Savings - Tasting Table
"In McDonald's absence, other fast food chains stepped up to fill the snack wrap void with their own versions. Now, even though the OG has returned under the golden arches, we're elbow-deep in snack wrap options, including Burger King's Crispy Wrap, Arby's Honey Mustard Chicken Wrap, Hardee's Tender Wraps, and, of course, KFC added fried chicken wrap varieties to its menu, too."
"Sonic launched its own chicken snack wraps around the same time McDonald's brought theirs back. The former didn't necessarily have to be outshone by the latter, however, as Sonic's crispy tender wraps are a buck cheaper - at $1.99, they're a steal. Unfortunately, they're such a disappointment that those savings aren't even worth it. The proportions of the contents are off, with too much lettuce and not enough chicken or cheese."
McDonald's revived the Snack Wrap after its 2006 introduction, 2016 reduction, and 2020 removal, reigniting demand for the tortilla roll-up with chicken, lettuce, cheese, and ranch. Competing chains released their own versions, including Burger King, Arby's, Hardee's, and KFC. Eight fast-food snack wraps were tested and ranked, with Arby's topping the list and Sonic finishing last. Sonic's wraps cost $1.99 but suffer from poor proportions, excessive tortilla and lettuce, insufficient chicken and cheese, and muted flavor. The Baja variety lacks tomatoes, lime, and identifiable Mexican flavors, producing a bland profile compared to alternatives.
