Fast-food wraps are having a moment.
While rumors continue to swirl that McDonald’s is preparing to bring back its fan-favorite snack wraps, multiple other fast-food chains have gotten in on the craze.
In 2023, Burger King launched a new line of chicken wraps to compete with Wendy’s, which began selling its own in March of that year. KFC and Chick-fil-A also sell their own chicken wraps.
At the time, it was thought that the chains were attempting to win over customers who yearned for the McDonald’s snack wraps.
Introduced in 2006, the McDonald’s snack wrap consisted of either crispy or grilled white-meat chicken breast, shredded cheddar cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, lettuce, and a choice of ranch, honey mustard, or salsa, wrapped in a soft tortilla.
The wraps began to be phased out in 2015, much to fans’ dismay. In 2020, a petition to bring back McDonald’s snack wraps was launched, garnering over 18,000 signatures.
Now, outlets like Food & Wine and Delish are reporting that McDonald’s may be prepping to relaunch the iconic snack wrap in anticipation of a new chicken tender rollout, the McCrispy chicken tender.
“Today, the size of the company’s chicken business is on par with beef, as the company continues to aggressively expand through billion-dollar equities including McNuggets, McChicken, McCrispy, and McSpicy,” the company said in a statement in December.
“This includes plans to offer McCrispy in nearly all markets around the world by the end of 2025 and to expand McCrispy into wraps and tenders,” the statement continued.
Until McDonald’s snack wraps are officially back, there are some alternatives. Enter Burger King’s Royal Crispy Wraps, which come in four different flavor options.
All relatively low-calorie — at least compared to some of the chain’s burgers — and inexpensive, the wraps have earned a permanent spot on Burger King menus.
Here’s every kind of Burger King chicken wrap, ranked from worst to best.
