The wait is over.
After months of teasing from McDonald’s, the day has arrived for the Snack Wrap to return. Customers can order the much-anticipated menu item starting Thursday, July 10.
The item is available in two flavors:
Spicy: The Spicy Snack Wrap brings the heat with a habanero kick that fans know and love from the Spicy McCrispy sandwich.
Ranch: The Ranch Snack Wrap delivers a satisfying burst of cool ranch goodness, with hints of garlic and onion.
The Snack Wrap is available a la carte or as a combo meal, which includes two Snack Wraps, a medium fry and a drink of choice. The item costs $2.99 a la carte.

When was the Snack Wrap discontinued?
The Snack Wrap first hit the McDonald’s menu in 2006. Over the next decade, it appeared on the menu in several different iterations, according to the Food Network, but with the same main ingredients of chicken breast meat (grilled or crispy), lettuce, cheese and sauce in a soft flour tortilla.
According to McDonald’s, the Snack Wrap was phased out nationally in 2016, but it “never left fans’ hearts.”
“From countless social media posts to full-fledged petitions, they never gave up on their favorite menu item. They’re the ones who inspired us to make its return to the menu happen,” McDonald’s said.
What is in a McDonald’s Snack Wrap?
The Snack Wrap features one of McDonald’s new McCrispy Strips, topped with shredded lettuce and shredded cheese and wrapped in a soft flour tortilla, according to the chain.
McDonald’s also adds new spicy breakfast items to menu
In addition to the Snack Wrap, McDonald’s has unveiled a series of new options to “spice up” its breakfast menu as part of the chain’s 50th anniversary celebrations for the McMuffin.
The three new spicy breakfast menu items include the Spicy McMuffin, Spicy Sausage McMuffin and Spicy Sausage McMuffin with Egg. The items feature the traditional ingredients of cheese, egg, Canadian bacon or sausage and a buttered English muffin, but are topped with a new Spicy Pepper Sauce, according to McDonald’s.
The new breakfast items dropped in stores on 8 and will be around for a limited time at participating locations, according to the fast food chain.
McDonald’s launched the Egg McMuffin in 1975. The breakfast item was the brainchild of Herb Peterson, a McDonald’s franchisee in Santa Barbara, California.
