Not just McDonald's: Here's where else you can get chicken wraps
McDonald's beloved Snack Wrap has some competition. The chicken wrap, which returned to McDonald's menus on July 10 nearly a decade after the item was phased out, has sparked a wrap war: some fast-food chains, like Burger King, are reminding fans they've had wraps for years, and others, like Popeyes and Taco Bell, recently added their own versions to their menus. McDonald's wrap, available a la carte or in a combo meal, is available in two flavors: spicy and ranch. The combo meal comes with two Snack Wraps, a medium fry and a drink of choice. If you're only ordering the wrap, the item costs $2.99 each. While the tizzy continues around the Golden Arches' comeback, here's a look at some other fast-food chains that sell chicken wraps. McDonald's Snack Wrap review: We tried it. Here's what we thought. Burger King entered the wrap game in 2023 with the introduction of its BK Royal Crispy Wraps, according to a 2023 news release from the chain. The wraps feature crispy white meat chicken, tomato, lettuce and one of the three flavors in a soft tortilla. Flavors: Classic, Spicy and Honey Mustard. Cost: $2.99 Popeyes announced on June 2 it was introducing Chicken Wraps to its menu for a limited time, giving customers the "craveable flavor of Popeyes, now wrapped and ready to go wherever you do," according to a news release. The wraps feature Popeyes hand-breaded and battered chicken tenders with crispy lettuce, shredded cheese and crunchy pickles, all in a warm tortilla that's inspired by the flavor of Popeyes biscuits. Flavors: The wraps and are available with your choice of a Classic, Spicy, or Honey Mustard spread. Cost: $3.99 Popeyes is giving away a free chicken wrap with any order of $5 or more from July 10 through Sunday, July 13. Sonic is another chain that recently introduced chicken wraps to its menu. The company told USA TODAY on June 7 it added two new Crispy Tender Wraps to its value menu. Both contain an all-white meat, crispy tender, lettuce, tomatoes and melty cheddar cheese wrapped in a soft, flour tortilla. Flavors: Cheesy Baja Crispy Tender Wrap and Honey Chipotle Crispy Tender Wrap Cost: $1.99 Sonic also told USA TODAY more wrap flavors are coming later this year. Earlier this summer, Taco Bell debuted a new lineup of crispy chicken menu items that include tacos and burritos after a successful trial with chicken nuggets. The lineup of new items is available for a limited time and includes: Crispy Chicken Taco ($2.79): One Crispy Chicken Strip layered with purple cabbage, lettuce, pico de gallo and shredded cheddar cheese with the choice of an all-new Spicy Ranchero Sauce or Avocado Ranch Sauce. Crispy Chicken Burrito ($5.49): A full-sized burrito that features two Crispy Chicken Strips surrounded by a bed of purple cabbage, lettuce, pico de gallo, cheddar cheese and the choice of an all-new Spicy Ranchero Sauce or Avocado Ranch Sauce. The chain said in a news release that "crispy chicken is the future" and is set to land on Taco Bell menus permanently in 2026. According to its online menu, Wendy's also offers a chicken wrap, available in three different varieties. Customers can choose between a grilled chicken, spicy chicken or classic chicken wrap duo. In addition to the chicken, the Wendy's Wrap Duo also features lettuce, shredded cheese, ranch and flour tortillas. Each order comes with two wraps.

McDonald's Snack Wrap is back, and we tried it: Here's our review
An oldie but a goodie is officially back on the McDonald's menu. After months of teasing from McDonald's about the possible return of the Snack Wrap, the highly anticipated (and beloved) menu item was made available for purchase on July 10, after nearly a decade away. Snack Wraps, which come in either the "Spicy" or "Ranch" flavor, costs $2.99 a la carte but can be made into a combo meal consisting of two Snack Wraps, a medium fry and a drink of choice. And we, just like the rest of the U.S., were eager to try it. So, we did. A handful of USA TODAY reporters and video producers who tried the McDonald's Snack Wrap either again or for the first time, offered their thoughts and genuine reactions to the entrée on camera. Here's our review, including review and reactions from others who were equally as ecstatic about the Snack Wrap's return. McDonald's Snack Wraps are back. Are they healthy? Our review: McDonald's Snack Wrap is just OK The group who taste-tested McDonald's Snack Wrap have spoken, and the truth of the matter is that many people thought the entrée is just OK. But it did receive a stamp of approval from video producers Ariana Triggs and Christina Cardona. Julie Gomez, a trending reporter, was not as easily impressed, saying that she was disappointed by the lack of sauce, since the majority of the sauce that came in her Snack Wrap was located on the bottom, instead of being evenly spread throughout. "There's no difference to me," Gomez says. "That doesn't have any sauce. It's just chicken." Senior reporter Mike Snider, who ordered a 'Spicy' Snack Wrap, said it was 'pretty spicy' and better than he thought it would be. USA TODAY reviews McDonald's, Popeyes and Taco Bell snack wraps USA TODAY senior reporter Mike Snider taste tested each chicken snack wraps from McDonald's, Popeyes and Taco Bell.

Internet reacts to the return of the McDonald's Snack Wrap July 10 will forevermore be known as the day the Snack Wrap returned to McDonald's. (At least that's what everybody's been saying.)
