Fast-food restaurants like McDonald’s and Burger King worked hard to feed everyone. Because many people lost their jobs and needed help, they started eating more at fast-food places. But so many people were ordering, so it was hard for the restaurants to get all the food they needed. So, places like McDonald’s decided to make their menu simpler to deal with the problem.
Before this, McDonald’s had already made its menu smaller. A while ago, they took away the Premium McWrap, upsetting some customers. But people who worked at McDonald’s said it was because it was too hard for the workers to make it.
Now, a video by Stephen Patula explains why McDonald’s got rid of the Premium McWrap. He says it was the hardest thing for McDonald’s workers to make, and he knows because his family owns a McDonald’s restaurant. He often talks about McDonald’s on TikTok and shares secrets about how it works.
In the video that got a lot of attention, Patula said, “When COVID started, McDonald’s made their menu smaller to make things easier. So now, there’s nothing too hard to make. But before, those fancy wraps were really hard to make. They tasted good but took a lot of time and effort.”
The video became popular, then many people commented asking for the wraps to come back. This surprised Patula because he didn’t expect so many people to want them back after he talked about how hard they were to make.
He explained, “I’m talking about the big McWrap, not the small ones. It wasn’t hard to make, just took a lot of time to fit it into the small box.”
Many comments on his video showed how much people missed the Premium McWrap and wished it would come back.
“Those special wraps have been gone from the menu for a long time.”
“I really wish they still had the crispy chicken ranch snack wrap,” said one person on TikTok.
“Really? The wraps were hard to make? It seems like they’re just like burgers but with a tortilla instead of a bun,” another person commented.
“Yeah, that’s right (I used to work at McDonald’s), but those wraps were really tasty. I miss them.”
Users also asked some interesting questions, like:
“How can I order a quarter pounder without cheese quickly? Every time I ask for that at the drive-thru, it confuses everyone.”
People also suggested a solution, saying to order a “quarter hamburger,” or at least that’s what they do. They said, “It’s a different option on our menu screens.”
