McDonald's Snack Wraps are almost back for good, but some fans aren't lovin' it
The Snack Wrap features one of McDonald's new McCrispy Strips — a juicy chicken strip made with all white meat — topped with shredded lettuce and cheese and wrapped in a soft flour tortilla, according to snackwrapfiles.com, which McDonald's launched to "highlight the bond fans have with the Snack Wrap."Still, not everyone is excited about the new version of the Snack Wrap.
A Reddit user reacting to McDonald's announcement about Snack Wraps posted about their disappointment with the McCrispy Strips, which will be used in the relaunched wraps.'I want to be excited, but I'm really snakebitten over the experience I've had with the chicken two out of three times.'Those of you that work there have said that it is allowed to sit in the warmer for up to an hour and that is where the texture of the chicken becomes rubbery and chewy.'Others responded to weigh in on the McCrispy Strips chicken as well as the potential price:

X users also posted about the quality of the chicken strips that will be used in the new Snack Wrap:
Fans can get Snack Wraps in two flavors when they return in July:
Spicy: "Bold, zesty and unapologetically fiery, our Spicy Snack Wrap brings the heat with a habanero kick that fans know and love from the Spicy McCrispy sandwich."
Ranch: "Smooth, rich and irresistibly savory, our Ranch Snack Wrap delivers a satisfying burst of cool ranch goodness, with hints of garlic and onion."
Yes. McDonald's says a meal will include two Snack Wraps, medium fries and a drink.
There are 613 McDonald's restaurants in Ohio, according to the web scraping tool ScrapeHero. Only California, Texas, Florida and Illinois have more locations than Ohio.
McDonald's Snack Wrap debuted in 2006, USA TODAY reports, before being discontinued in 2016.
Some restaurants continued to serve it until 2020. That's when it was removed from the menu to simplify McDonald's offerings during the COVID-19 pandemic, according to the Food Network.

Forget the Whopper, Burger King is launching a wild new sandwich
As July draws near and with it, some of the hottest days of the year, people will be outside on the weekends more than ever, enjoying the sunshine with friends and family. For many, that means grabbing a meal on the go - something fast-food chains anticipate all year. Don't miss the move: Subscribe to TheStreet's free daily newsletter For summer, beloved chains like McDonald's and Burger King (QSR) tailor their offerings to the season. Burgers and fries may be the main event, but when the temperatures are in the 90s, menu items that help you stay cool matter. You can count on just about all the chains to lean into frosty drinks and desserts, for obvious reasons. Related: Wendy's menu adds something McDonald's, Burger King won't offer But another tactic some brands use is to debut an entirely new menu item just to shake its customers up and pique their curiosity. And if it happens to also be unusual enough to capture the attention of TikTok and go viral, like the Dubai chocolate bar recently did, you just might have a hit on your hands. That's what Burger King is hoping to get with the release of its latest burger, which is different enough that it's sure to capture people's attention. In a tweet shared on the official Burger King Japan account on June 30, the fast-food chain announced a new sandwich in collaboration with the Japan Sumo Association. Called the Baby Body Burger, Burger King describes the limited-edition sandwich as "Yokozuna-class." This refers to the top skill tier of sumo wrestlers, of which there have been less than 100 since the term was coined in the early 1900s. The burger boasts five of the chain's signature flame-broiled patties, two slices of cheese, bacon, lettuce, tomato, and a creamy sauce. Related: Forget the Whopper, Burger King has a wild new burger The burger will be released on July 11 and will cost 2,590 yen ($17.96 U.S.) on its own or 2,890 yen in a combo ($20.04 U.S.), making it the priciest fast-food option in the market. It's also 1,876 calories, making it the highest-calorie item on Burger King's menu. Burger King will also sponsor the Japan Sumo Association for the Nagoya tournament in July. Burger King is employing an interesting strategy with its international audience, planning not one, but two collaborations this year. In addition to the Baby Body burger collaboration, the chain also released the Pickleball burger earlier this year, in collaboration with the Pickleball Japan Federation (PJF). That burger was described as a "large, American-style rice burger, with three flame-grilled 100%-beef patties sandwiched between special rice patties that have been jointly developed with Hachidaime Gihey, a long-established rice shop in Kyoto." Even though it's not a Whopper, which is the company's most successful product, this burger resonated with the Japanese audience, which has responded positively in the past to burgers with rice buns instead of bread. CEO Josh Kobza mentioned the strength of its international business in a recent earnings call. "I think when you look at the Burger King brand in international, it's a bit different," he said. "It has some really great qualities it to grow so well. We've got a strong brand positioning," he said. "We've got modern restaurants in almost all of our markets."

Kelsea Ballerini says fitness in her 20s was all about looks. Here's what changed once she hit her 30s.
In her 20s, Kelsea Ballerini says she worked out to look good. Now that she's in her 30s, it's all about feeling good — physically, mentally, and emotionally. In an interview with People published on Wednesday, the country music star spoke about how her approach to fitness has changed over the years. "Especially in my early twenties and mid-twenties, the idea of fitness was very much only aesthetically driven, and that was my goal," Ballerini, 31, told People. Now, she wants to be healthy and have the energy to keep up with her career and the people she loves. "The goal now is like, can I run around onstage for 90 minutes and have that energy to do it? Can I wake up and take both the dogs on a walk, and make sure that Dibs is going to all of his doctor appointments, and I'm on Zooms in the middle of it? Can I be present for everything that I need to? Can I make time for my friends, for my family, in the middle of all the chaos?" Ballerini said. While Ballerini practices Pilates to stay in shape, her go-to workout is a good walk. "Walking is so good for you. It also makes you get fresh air and some good sunshine, and that's so good for your mental health," she said. Diet-wise, Ballerini follows the 80/20 rule: eating healthily 80% of the time and being more flexible for the remaining 20%. She also says she enjoys eating at home, and her go-to meal is a chimichurri steak, which she has "a couple of times a week." However, there's one guilty pleasure she can't give up: McDonald's. "As a kid, I was such a picky eater, and my parents joke with me, like, 'All you would eat were waffles and chicken nuggets.' So I think it's just probably my inner child craving it still," Ballerini said. Six health and fitness specialists previously shared with Business Insider five key habits people can adopt in their 30s to boost longevity. They include eating a Mediterranean diet, wearing sunscreen, and managing stress. A representative for Ballerini did not immediately respond to a request for comment sent by BI outside regular hours.
