That’s a Wrap! The TikTok Trend Turning Us All into Lunch Artists

16 Shares

The wrap challenge – not to be confused with Cardi B’s WAP challenge, is the latest (delicious) trend taking over TikTok and it’s turning everyone into a wrap-making artist.

In a revolutionary movement, this wrap making technique completely omits that fiddly, awkward, never-stays-together ‘rolling’ of the wrap to hold in the filling. Instead, a simple cut along the radius of the wrap bread is the mind-blowing solution.

Note: This is also going to make eating wraps a heck load easier for young kids! #getinmybelly

The wrap revolutionised in 2021

One cut is all it takes for this lunch revolution.

With your wrap on a flat surface (preferably a chopping board), simply slice from the centre, along the radius (a quarter cut). Then, looking at the wrap in quarters, place your fillings in each quarter. Fold the wrap in a clockwise movement to encase the filling of each quarter and PRESTO!

MIND BLOWN, RIGHT?

At this point, you can eat it as is or you can toast it to be EXTRA smug in your new-found sandwich-artist ways. Fillings can be as easy as double layers of ham and cheese, it’s still going to be a fancy pants sandwich wrap.

But wait, there’s more!

And because we’re already being completely extra in the first week of the new year – say goodbye to that New Year, new healthy me mantra – here’s a dessert version featuring oozing Nutella. You’re welcome. Hey, it DOES have fruit in it!
