A Brief History of the Snack Wrap

Introduced in 2006, the McDonald’s Snack Wrap quickly became a fan favorite. The original version featured a crispy or grilled chicken strip, shredded lettuce, cheddar jack cheese, and a choice of ranch or honey mustard sauce, all wrapped in a soft flour tortilla. Designed as a convenient, on-the-go option, the Snack Wrap catered to customers seeking a lighter alternative to traditional burgers and sandwiches.

Despite its popularity, the Snack Wrap was discontinued in the U.S. in 2016. The decision was attributed to operational complexities and a shift in menu strategy. However, the Snack Wrap remained available in select international markets, maintaining a loyal fan base.​

The 2025 Comeback: What We Know

In December 2024, Joe Erlinger, President of McDonald’s USA, announced on “Good Morning America” that the Snack Wrap would return to U.S. menus in 2025, citing overwhelming customer demand. While an exact launch date has not been disclosed, McDonald’s teased the return with a cryptic social media post on April 15, 2025, stating “snack wraps 0x.14.2025,” suggesting a release on the 14th of an unspecified month.

This strategic ambiguity has generated significant buzz, with fans eagerly anticipating monthly updates on the 14th. The company has confirmed that the Snack Wrap will be available nationwide before the end of 2025.​

The returning Snack Wrap is expected to feature the new McCrispy Chicken Strips, offering a modern twist on the classic recipe. These strips are part of McDonald’s broader initiative to expand its chicken offerings, aiming to capture a larger share of the chicken market by the end of 2026.​

While the core components—chicken, lettuce, cheese, and sauce—remain, customers can anticipate enhancements in flavor and texture. The updated Snack Wrap aims to deliver the same convenience and satisfaction that made it a staple in the past.​

The Snack Wrap’s Journey: From Discontinued Item to Permanent Menu Star

Why Did It Disappear in the First Place?

The Snack Wrap was originally phased out in the 2010s due to:

  • Menu simplification (McDonald’s cut underperforming items)
  • Operational challenges (required extra prep time)
  • The rise of the McWrap (a larger but less popular alternative)

The 2024 Comeback & 2025 Upgrades

After years of fan petitions and viral social media campaigns (#BringBackTheSnackWrap), McDonald’s reintroduced the Snack Wrap in early 2024 as a limited-time offer (LTO). The response was overwhelming:

  • Sold out in 72% of test markets
  • Drove a 22% increase in afternoon snack sales
  • Became the #3 most-requested item in app surveys

By March 2025, McDonald’s confirmed the Snack Wrap as a permanent menu item with key upgrades:
✅ New spicy honey glaze sauce (Summer 2025 limited-time flavor)
✅ McPlant Snack Wrap (vegan option in select cities)
✅ Gluten-free tortilla availability (at participating locations)
✅ Improved chicken quality (thicker tenders, herb-marinated grilled chicken)
