Popeyes’ Basic Hen Wrap options a crispy-fried rooster tender, lettuce, shredded cheese, barrel-cured pickles, and mayo, wrapped in a flour tortilla that is supposedly infused with the flavour of the chain’s biscuits.
A snack-sized wrap was $4.49.
The flour tortilla tasted like your run-of-the-mill grocery store tortilla. It was smooth and pliable, with little taste. Whoever made it folded it properly, and I acquired some rooster in each chunk.
The rooster tender was just a little on the brief aspect, however it was huge. It was very skinny, however–similar in thickness to the pickles truly. It wasn’t tremendous recent, however it was heat with a lightweight and flaky crispiness that was beginning to flip smooth in some areas. The rooster inside wasn’t dry and was straightforward sufficient to chunk by means of.
The lettuce was recent, and the cheese was the same old very gentle kind that’s the norm in quick meals. The pickles caught out for his or her gentle sourness and crunch, whereas the mayo added a pleasant richness and tang.
Whereas it was common so far as fast-food snack wraps go, Popeyes’ Basic Hen Wrap is by far the costliest of any of those I’ve tried within the final yr or so (they’ve usually been round $3). It is the kind of pricing that will get you desirous about what else you can be consuming for the cash. For 50 cents extra, I would a lot quite simply get the chain’s Hen Dippers.
