McDonald’s isn’t somewhere you’d expect to find Rishi Sunak eating at on the reg, but it turns out the Prime Minister is a big fan of one particular item.
Back in 2022 he revealed the Breakfast Wrap is his go-to order from the fast food chain, which caused a bit of controversy.
This is because the wrap hadn’t actually been on the menu for two years at that point. Awkward…
However, it returned to the menu once more in February this year, and it was a pretty big deal at the time. People went wild for the £4.39 wrap, prompting an egg shortage just two days after it launched.
But it seems Rishi might have missed the memo on the wrap once again, as he’s only just shared news of its comeback online.
The Conservative Party leader took to X (formerly Twitter) to share a snap of himself holding a Breakfast Wrap, writing: ‘I love a comeback.’

While Rishi might be a big fan of the wrap, not all McDonald’s customers are convinced by his favourite brekkie and have made their thoughts clear on social media.
One controversial post on X by @chxrliedore read: ‘Breakfast Wrap overrated af. Breakfast Roll — put the hash brown inside, reigns supreme.’
@jaystyler_ agreed, simply writing: ‘McDonald’s breakfast wrap is overrated.’ And @_Hazpilicueta added: ‘Breakfast wrap is without a doubt the most overrated thing I’ve ever tasted.’
Personally, I’ve always been a Sausage, Egg and Cheese McMuffin kind of gal, but I have to admit when I saw the debate around these items, I knew I had to find out once and for all which Maccies breakfast is suprerior.

I absolutely LOVE a wrap and breakfast is my favourite meal of the day, so in theory the Breakfast Wrap should have been an instant winner for me.
However, I think this might be one of those rare occasions when I think the general consensus (and Rishi Sunak) is just plain wrong.
Now, I don’t want to give you the wrong idea, the wrap IS good. In fact it’s very tasty. After all, it’s hard to go wrong with sausage, bacon, eggs, cheese, and a potato rosti all wrapped up in carbs.
But there’s something about these ingredients put together inside a tortilla wrap that just feels wrong to me. I’d usually eat a wrap for lunch or dinner. (Yes, I know breakfast burritos are a thing… but I said what I said.)

In my experience the wrap went a little mushy as I ate, and that paired with the texture of the eggs just wasn’t the best combo. And …read more
