Fact Check: Is The McDonald’s Snack Wrap Returning to New York?

McDonald's is one of the largest fast food chains. They're known for their french fries, hamburgers and popular sandwiches for every meal at affordable prices.

Growing up, McDonald's was a fun hangout spot. McDonald's Happy Meals were a delight to my weekly visit there along with their warm french fries.

I remember being excited to eat my dinner at McDonald's in their character and hamburger chairs. After dinner, I had fun going down their slides and playing in the ball area in their play center.

Do You Remember These McDonald's Discontinued Menu Items?

Without a thought, most people can remember their favorite McDonald's menu item from the past. Personally, I loved McDonald's Chicken Selects and Mozzarella Dippers. 

One of my favorite McDonald's menu items was the Snack Wrap. On McDonald's website, the snack wrap can be described as

"Made with 100% Canadian raised seasoned chicken topped with shredded lettuce, shredded cheese and ranch sauce wrapped in a soft white flour tortilla."

I recall purchasing a Snack Wrap for less than $2.00.
