| - Yes, I often indulge myself with the fine cuisine that is found at my local McDonald's. OK, OK really I try not to go there that often unless it's the only thing to eat or I'm hankerin' for a damn McNugget (which by the way I still HAVE NOT found which part on the chicken the nugget is on). Addictive with Hot Mustard.
I went here exclusively this day because of the current coupons that came in the mail. There were a bunch of decent ones, particularly the ones that are promoting you try the new McCrap...oi...I mean McWrap. This is almost as catchy as that 'Fishay, Fishay' song from the previous McDonald's food campaign for Fish McBites over the Easter season. I swear if I see a wall of fish singing this tune to me at any location I will make like Grizzly Adams and run for the hills.
I took my McWrap coupon and waltz into my closest McDonald's. The visit's coupon was for a free McWrap of my choice with the purchase of any menu item (including the $1 Value Menu). I got me a $1 Sweet Tea (1/2 & 1/2 to avoid extra sugar) to go with my McWrap. I chose the Chicken & Bacon McWrap, grilled. Oi, why McDonald's thought this thing could compete with a $5 footlong from Subway I don't know.
My Chicken & Bacon McWrap was really MEH. The chicken was ok but was on the cold side, and my bacon? Damn stuff is the same thing they put on your typical McDonald's breakfast fare. Skinny and not much flavor. The chicken was warm enough that it completely wilted the Spring Mix type lettuce in my McWrap. Either that...or the Spring Mix was not cold to begin with! I hate that. Overly soggy lettuce. Bleech. The tomatoes that came in my McWrap were warm as well. Not to mention, I have a feeling my McWrap was made prior to my ordering because the tortilla it came in was showing signs of sogginess too. Not made fresh me thinks! These guys and their speed over quality sometimes.
Taste? I rather have a wrap somewhere else and pay a bit more. The flavors just weren't that great to justify a regular price of $4 per McWrap. If I didn't have this coupon I wouldn't have bothered trying it. The best part about the McWrap was the damn box it came in! It was cool & hip, and I felt like I was unwrapping a present when I tore through that seal. But other than that, nothing. I would have much rather used the coupon for a free Happy Meal with purchase. I love those things! But only when they come in the actual Happy Meal box with the Golden Arches handles, not in a friggin' paper bag. Grrrrr....I hate it when my Happy Meal comes in a regular bag. Makes me NOT happy.
Anyway, this trip to McDonald's was a bit of a bust. Was hoping to give them a chance with this new fandangled McCrap...darn it there I go again...McWrap, but it just didn't impress me. If they were made upon ordering and with much fresher ingredients, and not sitting by a heat lamp then maybe it would have been a better experience. Maybe I should hit up another McDonald's and give this thing another shot. Well, at least I had a coupon for buy one Dipped Cone, get one free! I double fisted that sucker all the way home! Ok, I actually shared for once.
