[McDonald's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-1955-burger) is shaking up the fast food snack game with the debut of its new 1955 Snack Wraps in South Korea.

Inspired by McDonald's [1955 Burger](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/two-new-burgers), the new 1955 Snack Wraps are meant to deliver the "taste of 1955, when McDonald's was first established." Like the burger, the new snack wraps feature a beef patty as the star ingredient. But where the burger also comes with special 1955 sauce, ketchup, caramelized onions, bacon, lettuce, and tomato, the 1955 Snack Wraps contain caramelized onions, a special smoky 1955 sauce, and lettuce. The wraps also swap the typical toasted sesame burger bun for a flour tortilla wrap.

The new 1955 Snack Wraps can be found now, but only from McDonald's locations in South Korea.
