Popeyes’ Traditional Rooster 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 received some rooster in each chunk.
The rooster tender was somewhat on the quick facet, but it surely was extensive. It was very skinny, however–similar in thickness to the pickles truly. It wasn’t tremendous recent, but it surely was heat with a light-weight 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 way of.
The lettuce was recent, and the cheese was the same old very delicate kind that’s the norm in quick meals. The pickles caught out for his or her delicate 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’ Traditional Rooster Wrap is by far the most costly of any of those I’ve tried within the final 12 months or so (they’ve typically been round $3). It is the kind of pricing that will get you fascinated by what else you can be consuming for the cash. For 50 cents extra, I would a lot moderately simply get the chain’s Rooster Dippers.
