Although I wouldn't choose the McD route. You could make a worse choice than the grilled snack wrap.
It has 270 cals, most of which are coming from the flour tortilla (at 140cals)
Pros: 18g protein
Cons: 830mg sodium, only 1 g fiber.
In essence in my book it's biggest weakness is the flour tortilla.
It has a lot of crap in it as well. Hydrolzed oils, lots of soybean oil etc.
ie their definition of chicken breast fillet:
Grilled Chicken Breast Filet
Chicken breast filets with rib meat, water, seasoning (salt, sugar, food starch-modified, maltodextrin, spices, dextrose, autolyzed yeast extract, hydrolyzed [corn gluten, soy, wheat gluten] proteins, garlic powder, paprika, chicken fat, chicken broth, natural flavors (plant and animal source), caramel color, polysorbate 80, xanthan gum, onion powder, extractives of paprika), modified potato starch, and sodium phosphates.
If you were desperate, I might suggest buying two of em and ditching one or both of the wraps, giving you 33g protein.
There are better choices, but there are PLENTY worse ones. I wouldn't choose to make it a staple in my diet, but lots of guys have eaten only McDs and lost plenty of weight.
