A Word About ... Wraps

Perhaps the biggest pet peeve I have about wraps are the loose ones—those half-heartedly rolled-up pita wraps, flour tortilla wraps, and, yes, my recent encounter with naan wraps. I'm sure you know what I'm referring to: the ones that are so clumsily put together that they fall apart once you attempt to strategically roll down the foil paper to take a bite out of them; the ones whereby all the contents that constitute the filling fall out, with mayonnaise, olive oil, vinaigrette, and any other dressing dripping down the sides of the wrap and in between your fingers, prompting you to reach for a wad of paper napkins.

It boggles the mind sometimes how this one simple yet crucial aspect of wrap rolling is overlooked by those in the food preparation industry who clearly weren't paying attention in training. If any managers are reading this, you may want to ensure that this technique is mastered by relevant staff behind the counter. Believe me when I say that it makes all the difference to the end product and, consequently, to the overall satisfaction of the consumer :).
