hello everyone this is running on empty Food review well hello ladies gentlemen
and everyone watching welcome one and all to this newest edition of The Running on Empty
Food review series I'm your host the report of the week pleased to be here as always
hope everyone out there checking out this video right now is feeling and doing all right
raps yeah that that says it all doesn't it and the bag says even more
Kentucky Fried Chicken is where it's from let's just get right into things I would say that raps
personally I would say that they could be a pretty underrated fast food item
it's one of those things that oftentimes gets overlooked but it could be very simple
it doesn't need to be the most complex item in the world but it's one of those things that if
done correctly it could make an awfully good snack or if it's of course on the larger size
or if you want to get a few wraps at least it could constitute a pretty good meal as well
and I'm surprised that uh this is actually a pretty new release from KFC as I know that but
they have a lot of different chicken sorts of products I actually heard that KFC is making
a few changes to their menu by the way I think they're going to be getting rid of some of their
wings and I think the popcorn chicken as well but they've got wraps so I guess that's supposed to
cancel all that out but indeed KFC is uh adding their new Kentucky Fried wraps to the menu and
they will be available in two varieties you could get your standard original wrap which is what I'll
be reviewing here you could also get a spicy one which just has like a spicy sauce on it
but the concept is very simple so for the price of three and a half dollars around three dollars
fifty cents you'll get a tortilla inside the tortilla they describe is a chicken tender crispy
some pickles and some mayo and there you have it so it's just supposed to be a simple little
item that may be good for snacking maybe if you're not very ravenous it could be a
meal in and of itself but I just want to see how good is it is it worth it let's find out
comes in this little bag there is the kernel peering out at you
you look at those eyes he's seen some stuff I'll tell you that No Doubt
and this is the wrapping
right there
what does it even say on it Finger Licking Good that's what they claim it to be
foreign
very straightforward it's in the tortilla
and you could see essentially the tortilla it's like it's giving birth
to the chicken tender
that's actually that's a bad analogy it's more like a chicken tender well you know call
it whatever you want I guess you could also think that it's more like a chicken tender
wrapped up in a blanket doesn't really matter in the end it's a wrap oh you can see the pickle
right there you see the pickle and there's the Mayo there's the chicken tender yeah
very simple straightforward let's see how it is this is the original one from KFC going in
oh
foreign
not bad really not not bad at all I know this review is a bit on the the quicker side but
sometimes you get these items that well they aren't the most complex in the world
and there isn't a ton to say about them this is one of those items but for what it is all
things considered I'd say it's pretty good when you bite into this like I said you're not going
to notice a ton obviously and I think as you could see size wise despite the fact that when
when you read this and even when you actually see the size of the item itself you might think
it's just a chicken tender and a tortilla so I mean how how good is it actually going to be
but as you could see I think the ratio of size from the chicken tender to the rest of the wrap
is pretty good so it's not like you're getting this tiny little morsel of chicken wrapped up
in this huge tortilla and it says drowning in mayo and you could barely taste it not at
all there's plenty of chicken there does have a nice little crisp to it chicken is good flavorful
on the saltier side though you're definitely going to notice that saltiness to it however
I will say that that pickle addition always complements it quite nicely
and that tanginess that the pickle provides definitely helps balance everything out it
helps balance out the saltiness prevents it from getting overwhelming from uh going overboard
perhaps and that really works like going to have the Mayo I am not and I always preface this
just by saying that I am not the world's biggest Mayo fanatic so I'm not one of those people that
as I know some do you know I'll take the wrap and I'll kind of just like wring it out like a sponge
over my mouth and just kind of you know suck up all the all the Mayo and become immersed in the
flavor you know I don't really do that however with that with that established I'll say that
the addition of the Mayo in this case totally fine even for someone who is a self-admitted not the
world's biggest Mayo fan yeah it's totally fine it doesn't add necessarily a ton but it gives it
a little bit of moisture and it certainly doesn't detract from the wrap in any way shape or form but
really what you're especially going to notice is that crisp texturally you're going to notice
the saltiness from the chicken but it's just balanced out quite nicely by the pickle
all in all I would say that this is a pretty good snack I would call this more of like a snack but
again it depends you could just get a couple of them and I'm sure that would constitute a meal
but definitely a good snack it's basic you might say that it is No Frills but
I'll certainly take that over an item that has this set and the other thing and winds up being
absolutely god-awful compared to this it might be simple but for what it is it's pretty good so
out of 10. I'm happy with it I think it's pretty good for what it is good amount of chicken
prices is well it is what it is but I'd say the price is good enough and
all things considered yeah I'm fine with it so therefore out of ten the original
KFC chicken wrap from of course KFC I'm going to be giving it a 7.5 out of 10 slightly above
average I'm happy with it and I have a feeling if you want something to snack on it's easy to
eat and tastes pretty good All Things Considered I certainly hope like I said I saw some news how KFC
is probably going to make some changes to the menu and it's going to be a shame if they actually do
get rid of the well the popcorn chicken especially it's disappointing I hope they don't because that
was one of my favorite items from KFC but it'll be what it is in the end and uh certainly we'll
see what happens but at least I have these wraps that are pretty good that's all that
I have for you thank you for watching and until next time I'm your host the report of the week
