McDonald's is shaking up the fast food snack game with the debut of its new 1955 Snack Wraps in South Korea.
Inspired by McDonald's 1955 Burger, the new 1955 Snack Wraps are meant to deliver the "taste of 1955, when McDonald's was first established." Like the burger, the new snack wraps feature a beef patty as the star ingredient. But where the burger also comes with special 1955 sauce, ketchup, caramelized onions, bacon, lettuce, and tomato, the 1955 Snack Wraps contain caramelized onions, a special smoky 1955 sauce, and lettuce. The wraps also swap the typical toasted sesame burger bun for a flour tortilla wrap.
The new 1955 Snack Wraps can be found now, but only from McDonald's locations in South Korea.
