You know what I have no time for? Wraps. When did wraps start getting more cred than a regular sandwich? Probably the same sick and twisted day that those ridiculous seaweed crackers overtook the tried and true Jatz. What a joke.Wraps look all fancy and healthy, but they have no taste. At least bread has taste. Chew for a minute and it's just a mouth of gross dough. And unless you eat a wrap within twenty seconds of actually making it, it tastes rubbish. It gets all wet and sloppy at the end with tomato juices and whatnot. Foul.
I feel strongly about this, and think some sort of anti-wrap campaign is in order. Maybe a petition. Possibly a march. Who's with me? I'll meet you at the old mill at midnight tonight.

I've always liked wraps. I like the filling-security of a tightly wrapped wrap. But now you've spoiled them for me.
It's not so much that I've spoiled them for you, but rather that I have peeled the scales away to reveal the truth that deep down you already knew. For real.
I'm totally with you Ben.
Like eating what might be a nice salad in soft cardboard.
Exactly. Ditch the tasteless middleman and eat a nice salad.
But the good thing about a wrap is that you can have more filling and less bread which is always the least exciting part.
The bread used for wraps is good for kebabs.
Oh, and they often have less yeast than regular bread so they work for people who have problems with yeast.
Sorry, I cannot agree with you here. Wraps are great – especially because the kids love them. They also have numerous uses - layer them in the slow cooker (another one of your favourite hates, I know Ben), pizza bases, lunches etc.
cj- sometimes less bread, but sometimes you get a bit with about 15 layers of wrap, and it's like eating glue.
simone- exactly. no point.
Laetitia- kebabs are a completely different kettle of fish. For starters, they are toasted and crispy. And they have awesome homus and tabouli. wraps are like raw kebabs.
Wendy- you wrong me. I LOVE my slow cooker. And your examples are ways of using wraps not like a wrap, which only proves my point.
Toast it... oh- and I know why u need to chew food for over a minute (mum's the word!).
But Ben, the wrap bread is tastier than normal bread
I was going to disagree with you Ben, but then I realised that I was thinking of a kebab - which is awesome, not a wrap - which is decidedly less so.
So, to clarify:
Kebabs = Awesomesauce
Wraps = boring.
In the same vein, I think Subway is a stupid shop, except for their toasted buns. Why would I ever buy a sandwich (or wrap), when I could buy something cooked instead!
'Why would I ever buy a sandwich (or wrap), when I could buy something cooked instead!'
Spot on, mate. We think the same.
