Is a snack wrap really that bad for you?

Question

is a grilled chicken snack wrap at mcdonalds really that bad for you , and dont give me the anwser everything from mcdondalds is bad for you for once please

Answer 1

they are bad but taste great

Answer 2

The snack wraps have about 260 calories, 9 grams of fat, 800 mg sodium, 1 gram fiber, and 15 grams protein.  

Nearly 300 calories for a snack that has virtually no fiber isn't very good.  800 mg sodium is what really worries me.  That's hypertension just waiting to happen!  It seems like it has an excess of everything other than fiber.  Even the amount of protein is high.  I need ~35 g protein a day and that would be a lot of protein in a snack for me.

However, If you're eating at McDonalds then I would assume that a grilled chicken snack wrap would be one of the better things that you can get.  It's not terribly unhealthy, but I wouldn't say it was healthy either.  Somewhere in between.

Answer 3

check their website and see. I think any fast-food isn't good for you.

Answer 4

You can check their website for the nutritional value of anything they serve. Compared to most other foods, no, I don't think it's that bad for you.

Answer 5

actually it can be quite healthy....BUT like one person I know of, he eats two grilled bbq wraps from McDonalds EVERYDAY for lunch, however he asks for lite sauce, and lite cheese.  He says he has lost about 8lbs, over a month and half though.  You can make food healthy, no matter if it is fast food or home cooked!

Answer 6

The only one I had that would have been a good healthy choice was my wheatgerm wrap, which was wheatgerm and whey wrapped in Kelp.  YUMMY!!!!!!

Answer 7

Actually you never really know.You'd have to compare fat content and calories, ect.I think it is actually not really that bad for you, although grilled is waay better for you than crispy.I happen to think they are bad for you, but heck, is anything good for you at mcdonalds?
