MAC THAT !!!


As if the Angus Burger bombs, KFC’s Double Down Chicken Sandwich, and Hardee’s Fried Chicken Biscuit Sandwich weren’t enough to empower anyone to lose all hope in fast-food resterants McDonald’s adds insult to injury with this disastrous sandwich.While the name “snack wrap” makes you think this is just a harmless little snack-sized sandwich that you might munch on as a small afternoon pick-me-up, think again. This is a burrito, folks. It’s name, “Big Mac Snack Wrap,” is just a sneaky marketing maneuver to get you to think that what you are eating is akin to a half of a turkey sandwich a few crackers and cheese. And even if you’re watching your carbs, don’t be fooled by this seemingly lower carb version of a nutritional nightmare: White flour is white flour and a Big Mac is a Big Mac.
As its name does imply, the Big Mac Snack Wrap is a Big Mac with all of the signature fixings – sliced burger patty, special sauce, lettuce, onions, cheese, pickle but no sesame seed bun. The sandwich was test-marketed in Canada and has slowly made its way across the border to the U.S to us although I hear its delish...people it is waht it is with all the same calories ad the original Big Mac...sorry!!!
