I’ve mentioned before that McWraps are easily the most boring thing on the McDonald’s menu.  So there’s a new McWrap.  It’s got chipotle in it.  Who cares?

But wait!  This one is available with either grilled chicken, crispy chicken, or… fish?  In a McWrap??  Well, that’s exciting (small print: it takes very little to get me excited.  This is not actually exciting).

Here’s how McDonald’s describes this: “Made with crispy, flaky fish topped with creamy chipotle sauce, crispy tri-colour tortilla strips, shredded lettuce, sliced tomato and cucumbers. All wrapped in a soft white flour tortilla.”

This is definitely not the McWrap to change my mind about McWraps.  It’s very McWrap-y, which is to say it’s a bit dry and boring; it tastes like a perfunctory stab at “healthiness” from a chain that has no business being even remotely health-adjacent.

The fish is interesting, but I guess there’s a reason why these types of wraps have chicken in them 99 percent of the time; it doesn’t quite work.  It’s not unpleasant, but it’s odd.  I missed the chicken (it didn’t help that the Filet-O-Fish patty had clearly been sitting out for some time; it was a bit dry).

Everything else is fine, with the veggies all being what you’d expect, and with the tortilla strips doing a decent job of adding some crunch.

The creamy chipotle sauce is the highlight.  It’s creamy, zesty, a little bit smoky, and actually has a mild spicy kick.  The wrap needed way more of it.  Give me a little tub of it so I can use it as a dip for fries.  It’s a really tasty sauce.
