Once Again, Extra Chicken Strips Put To Good Use

Awhile back, I made an entry discussing the genius of KFC’s “Snacker” sandwiches. What better way to get the most out of leftover chicken strips, than to put them on a little bun with some sparkly mayonnaise and sell them for $1.00 a pop?

Well, it seems McDonalds has done them one better. They have found an even more creative way to get rid of their excess chicken strips. Their new way of cashing in on overproducing chicken strips: Snack Wraps

The Snack Wrap is basically two small-to-medium sized chicken strips, in a tortilla wrap, surrounded by “cheddar jack” cheese, mayo, and lettuce. I put “cheddar jack” cheese in quotations because that’s what the advertisement says. I bought two snack wraps yesterday, and I’ll be damned if they didn’t put regular plain-old American cheese on them. Like I can’t tell the difference. Besides the obvious variation in taste, the “cheddar jack” cheese on the picture is shredded. The cheese on the ones they sold me was rectangular, which shows they basically took a slice of American cheese out of a package, removed the plastic, folded in in half, and put each respective half on a snack wrap. Cheap bastards.

This was at the downtown Silver Spring McDonalds across from the metro station and the Discovery Channel headquarters. If you’re in the area and you order a snack wrap, look at the cheese first. If they try to pull the same thing on you, look your server in the eye and yell out “LEON WARNED ME ABOUT YOU SONS OF BITCHES! WHERE’S MY GOD DAMNED CHEDDAR JACK CHEESE! THAT SHIT AIN’T CHEDDAR! YOU LYING BASTARD!”

Now, if the server decides that his McDonalds job is not worth the abuse and decides to jump across the counter and beat the brakes off you right there in the lobby area, I am not responsible for this. Only resort to name-calling if you’re relatively certain you can whup the McDonalds employee standing across from you. If not, you can still yell, but you have to know when to hold ‘em and know when to fold ‘em.

Despite the faux cheese incident yesterday, the snack wraps held me down. For $1.29, it’s a good little snack for a cheap price. Granted, you have to eat about 2 or 3 in order to be full, but still. Snack wraps get the Hustleman Stamp of Approval.

    Speaking of stamp or approval. My blog endorsed your candidacy for a Black Weblog Award yesterday. I expect some Haliburton-like padded military contracts when you win.

    See you really do want to go to Heaven. I would have went back and bitch slapped the morons on the grill. Nothing is more infuriating than having someone try to screw with my money or my food!

    LOL @ Home Improvement. Anything less would be uncivilized!

    @ HighHeeled, I didn’t notice until I was long gone from the McDonalds. They pulled a fast one on me

    Random question: Is anyone else getting that annoying “Seekmo” pop up thing when they come here? I hope not, cause those clowns aren’t giving me any money for having that crap up here.

    I tried the ‘snack wrap’ the cheese was shredded but I didn’t like the sauce that’s on it. Maybe that’s just a cali thing though.

    What drives me nuts about KFC is their “boneless chicken wings made with 100% chicken breast meat”…these are not WINGS; they are NUGGETS. Having never tried them I cannot, however, attest to their taste.

    $1.29? They’re $1.00 here… $1.07 with tax. So they’re EXTRA getting over, lol.

    I can’t mess w/ those supposed snacks. The only thing I can still eat at micky d’s and not throw up is a big mack or cheeseburger. Everything else is ooohh so yuck.

    Just a side note KFC those nuggets or wings are not real chicken meat, they are genetically altered chickens that used just for breast meat and have no legs..that is why Kentucky Fried Chicken had to change their name due to lawsuits..

    just fyi

    Really, it is McDonald’s– how can you tell if they removed the plastic from the cheese?
