By way of research for this post, I asked my sister Caitlin, who has a low opinion of her own cooking ability, what she thought of the "Mac Snack Wrap." She said it looked like something that would taste like something she would make.
According to Eat Me Daily, this is what the beast looks like unwrapped. We're gonna pass on this one.
How can anyone order this "item" and have anything but digust for doing so. The idea that you just shove all the makings of a Big Mac into a tortilla and think that is what the public wants just disappoints me beyond belief. Is this how little McDonalds thinks of us? It is almost inhuman!
]]>I'm an omnivore, but I prefer the Boca burgers to ground beef because there's no gut-ache later.
]]>@JPropaganda: Less cumbersome? Because those Big Macs are so unwieldy.
]]>Is there any fast-food joint out there at which the pretty picture on the menu bears any resemblance to the smashed, mush-in-a-wrapper one is actually served? I've gone as far as calling for the manager, showing him/her the pile of crud in the wrapper, pointing to the pretty picture and asking politely to have one of those. Sometimes they try to comply and I get something a little less revolting; but most of the time, I get a shrug of the shoulders and an indifferent, "sorry, that's what we serve," in reply.
Best thing I ever did was make it a policy that the wheels of my car will never touch the parking lot of any fast-food joint... ever!
]]>Well, McDonald's is obviously racist. They think they can just wrap any old thing in a tortilla and suddenly they have the Hispanic demographic eating out of their hands.
Here's a pro-tip: cook your own damn food: [www.urinalgum.com]
]]>Few years ago I checked out the ingredients of the salsa and noticed it contains HFCS. Haven't had it since. I make my own home made breakfast burritos now (and fajitas).
Don't think I'll ever try this big mac..thing. Always hated big macs. This doesn't make it look any more appetizing.
]]>@bdgbill: I used to always order the McChicken, but now that McD's took the McChicken into the "spicy" territory and now SUCKS, the Filet-O-Fish is now my favorite. With extra cheese, please! And I scrape off most of the two pounds of tartar sauce they like to blob on just one side of the sandwich.
]]>@krispykrink: Dad, is that you?
]]>@krztov: @downwithmonstercable: Sir, that is not thousand island; that is "special sauce." Big difference. Huge.
]]>You missed out. It tasted better than most of the usual cheap pizza joints, but was lower in price. It also mandated a redesign of the drive-thru windows. :)
Unlike the Hot-N-Ready's from Little Ceasar's, these weren't sitting around getting cardboardy for an hour. They were made on the spot for you.
Hot and fresh, yum!
Can you tell I wish they would come back! :sob:
]]>@randygbk:
Then you should do an interpretive ice dance so we all know how you feel.
]]>is eat me daily a porn site? im verrrry scared to clicke the link at work lol.
]]>@Yoko Broke Up The Beatles: How Dare You!
The Filet O' Fish is probably my favorite fast food product of all time. I often go to McD's for nothing but a Filet and a Coke (McDonalds has the best Coke anywhere for some reason). The Filet is also one of the few fast food products completely unchanged since my childhood.
@Coles_Law: I know, they could cut it up or something right?
]]>Most of the snack wraps are close to healthy, putting a big mac in one seems to defeat the purpose to me.
]]>(most sandwiches look pretty damn gross if you open them up and spread the requisite parts on paper)
]]>Seriously though, they better get the price right. A McDouble/Double Cheeseburger or whatever they call it now days is only $1, so that pretty much makes $1 the limit for this.
]]>Never mind that technically, eating fish makes her a pescetarian (assuming that there's actually fish in those sandwiches at all, which is probably being entirely too generous).
Thanks for bringing back those memories!
]]>The regular meats are 1/10 pound. So, yeah, you're getting less meat than in a big-mac, but by less than half -- not the numbers you get if you think that's half a 10:1 patty.
]]>@spartie:
The McPizza existed in my lifetime, yet I never got around to trying it. I'm not sure if that means I missed out or not...
]]>@Drew5764:
If McDonald's can come up with a catchy ad campaign for this Big Mac Burrito, then I'll watch.
But, I still won't buy it. Nor the F-o-F.
]]>This reminds me of the "All American" Taco that Rubios rolled out a while ago, which is basically a weirdo taco with the innards of a burger, and half a beef patty like this.
It's also reminiscent of the Wendy's fried chicken wrap, which is half a fried chicken patty in a wrap-like concoction.
Apparently serving half a meat patty in a tortilla is just the "in" thing to do in fast-food land.
]]>This is McDonald's way of charging nearly twice as much for half a hamburger.
]]>Pass the lard!
]]>Someone here is a Shlock Mercenary Reader!
]]>Then again, I have friends in their late 30s and early 40s who still enjoy Taco Bell. To each their own, I suppose. Just don't bring back anything for me.
]]>There's a DOUBLE Filet-O-Fish?! YUM!
/me rushes out to get one.
]]>@Coles_Law: Basically they they did fold it. Those "F"ortillas (F=fake azz)taste like they came in the same carton the "Just add Water Mceggs" come in. Come to think of it- I think they are the carton.
]]>I quit eating any fish or seafood that isn't caught or farmed in a country with production standards. All those chemicals the US banned because they cause all sorts of problems are used in places like Vietnam and Thailand. Read up on how Thai farms raise shrimp. Ewww.
]]>I'll give 'em a try if they give them away, do a 2-for-1 deal, etc.
]]>...what?! This is fundamentally different from a regular Big Mac, on a bun, how?
So people who like Big Macs, like me...exactly what difference does it make if it's in a tortilla? I'm guessing it tastes pretty much the same. Which is to say, yummy. In an artery-clogging, gut-busting kind of way.
]]>No way, no how!!
It looks disgusting and on top of all of that I am a tortilla snob. I am sure a McDonalds tortilla would be tasteless and very processed like cardboard.
]]>Did they just fold a hamburger patty in half? Ugh.
]]>@Yoko Broke Up The Beatles: There's a Double Filet-O-fish as well-my soul died a little each time I had to make one.
]]>If it comes with thousand island on it, I'll pass. That has to be the worst culinary concoction in the history of food.
]]>If someone holds a gun to your head and makes you choose between this and the filet-o-fish, what would you choose? I'd definitely choose this.
My point is that there are much, much worse things on the McDonald's menu. Read: Filet-o-fish.
