Obviously falling victim to several methods of advertising I found myself at the counter of McD's in The Strand this morning buying one.

It. Was. Lovely!

It rather had the feeling of the stuff they get from a machine in Star Trek, you know....press a button....lamb chops..., but to be honest was none the worst for that!

Anyone else tried one?

Looks revolting in the adverts, but there again, all McD's stuff does. I can't believe what shiit some people eat.

I will buy one tomorrow and give feedback, missed two meals today so I can afford the calories....

I've tried one and totally agree. By far the very best item McDonalds have ever had on their otherwise crappy breakfast menu.

They managed to ruin the bacon sandwich by giving us stodgy bread and the McMuffin range has needed an overhaul for some time.

All hail the Breakfast Wrap from McDonalds!

I am out the office tomorrow so will be getting one of these badboys just before 1030! It's been advertised all weekend on mobile ph and has been looking thoroughly tempting, I'm sure a liberal soaking of BBQ sauce will finish it off a treat!

You have a choice of getting them with ketchup or brown sause. It's already in the wrap.

I had the ketchup one. Be rude not to try the brown sauce one wouldn't it.

What a magnificent put-down.

I shall shamelessly steal it and use it as my own.

After first hearing of these in the dirty takeaway thread, I treated myself to one on Saturday, as I was in work on my own after a couple of pints the night before.

Worked a treat on the little hangover I was nursing.

If I was being critical/for future efforts, I might be tempted to ask for a second dollop of brown sauce.

Did find myself wondering what it would be like with the spicy sauce they used to put in the big breakfast muffin things.

I was a sausage Egg McMuffin fan, but this badboy blows away the old muffins tits.

i love the way it is able to be eaten like a savoury pseudo apple pie.

Why thank you. It's always important to get these things sorted from the off, just to avoid unpleasantness later on.

Just so you know it will be put to good use. It will come in particularly handy in connection with

2. A conspiracy theorist Guido Fawkes following friend.

595 calories... scratchchin

That knocks my preferred got-to-go-to-work-dirty-hangover-breakfast-of-choice (the sausage and egg McMuffin) into a cocked hat at 'only' 430.

Me too, and I believe you're right.

I don't think I could face a McMuffin again.

I'm having this one.

Seriously, people who slag the Golden Arches need to cheer the fk up and enjoy themselves a bit. You know, live a little. Maybe eat something other than museli.

FFS.

Oh, and I'll see you all on the "Dirty Takeaway" thread.

Boring alfalfa fans need not apply.

Big Mac lunchtime fine, but in the mornings it's a sausage sandwich or egg & bacon sandwich from a cafe everytime!

Well said. Anyone who can drive past the arches catching a whiff of burgery goodness without diverting forthwith is just odd.

I do question the breadiness of this new delight. I suspect that it will need a side order of a sausage & egg mcmuffin to bulk it out, in the same way that a large mac meal deserves, nay DEMANDS, a cheeky cheeseburger starter.
