That\u2019s A Wrap \u2026 On Delicious Fillings of Your Choice<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Freyas Wraps in Six Flavours<\/strong><\/h2>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>We are offered an alternative to traditional breads, a new way of combining any exciting range of foods,, dressings and flavours that we choose, new options for the lunch menu,\u00a0 appealing flavours like Roasted Capsicum and Garlic, Spinnach and Garden Herbs, Soy and Linseed. These are Wraps, a thin, easy to manage type of pancake, suitable for a dinner menu, an office or picnic lunch, where you have the added enjoyment of eating them as finger food, an exotic and welcome change from bread sandwiches.<\/p>\n

Do these Wraps deliver on this promise, this potential? The answer in the main is Yes, they do! They certainly give structure to your choice of fillings, hot or cold, and they lift the office lunch from the monotony of the bread sandwich, handling a wider range of food ingredients and allowing warming in the microwave, lifting wraps into a category all of their own. And they are easy to manage. Wraps lend themselves to\u00a0 Mexican fillings and seasonings, Freyas even offer Traditional Tortilla\u00a0 and Mexican Wraps as options, based on Corn flour rather than wheat flour. They are only limited by your taste and your creativity .<\/p>\n

The flavours of the wraps themselves add little. There are tastes of spinach, capsicum, garlic, but these ingredients are included at low levels, and the taste seems \u201cprocessed\u201d. The Soy and Linseeed Wrap has a wholesome aftertaste, soy added at 2.5% and Linseed at 1%. The flavour options seem mainly to be image, and certainly the brand is beautifully packaged .I did not find this too much of an issue. Wraps are all about the fillings, and the flavours in the ingredients you add will make the satisfaction and enjoyment very real.<\/p>\n

Further flavour can be added by smearing your favourite flavour on the wrap prior to filling, flavoured humus, chilli, garlic or ginger paste, sauces, once again you are the creator!<\/p>\n

Spinnach and Garden Herbs Wrap, Pastrami with Feta, Yellow Capsicum and Eggplant<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A 10 out of 10 for flavour the salty taste of pastrami and the oily lemon moistness of eggplant\u00a0 on the freshness of the lettuce and cucumber \u2026 very well balanced and extremely tasty.<\/p>\n

Soy and Linseed Wrap with Prawns and Avocado in a Ginger Orange Vinaigrette with Toasted Sesame Seeds<\/strong>.<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A beautiful combination of Prawns and Avocado, a citrus dressing and an appealing aftertaste of Sesame. A classy light lunch.<\/p>\n

Spinnach and Garden Herb Wrap, Smoked Chicken with Asparagus, Lemon Sauce and Blue Vein.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A warm dish for lunch or dinner, satisfying and filling, the Lemon\u00a0 sauce coating the smoked chicken, the fresh green taste of asparagus, contrasting with the richness of Blue Vein<\/p>\n

Roasted Capsicum and Garlic Wrap, Sirloin Steak in Soy Sauce with Yellow Capsicum and Eggplant<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Warmed in microwave for 40 seconds, this is a\u00a0 substantial high quality lunch. Eggplant provides a lovely moistness, flavoured by capsicum water, with rare sirloin and soy you will know you will feel well satisfied.,<\/p>\n

Nutrition<\/strong><\/em><\/h2>\n

The wraps are 70 gms each. As a comparison, the sandwich bread I purchase is about 90 gms for four slices, which would give me an equivalent lunch. The wraps are thin and so are bigger, allowing a greater volume of filling.<\/p>\n

Wraps are almost identical per 100 gm to bread in energy, protein, sugars and fibre content. They are higher in fat (6.6 gm \/ 100 gm compared to bread at 2.4 gm \/ 100 gm compared , and higher in sodium, but slightly lower in total carbohydrate. There seem to be no real concerns here, and they have the positive benefit of encouraging healthy filling options. The comment that needs to be made concerns the ingredient listing.<\/p>\n

Ingredients.<\/strong><\/em><\/h2>\n

All brands and all flavours of Wraps have far more E Number additives than you might be expecting, up to 12 or 13. Mostly they are natural substances, mineral salts, or derivatives of natural substances, commercially produced. We need products to last for a reasonable period, so preservatives, mould inhibitors, anti fungal and anti microbial additives make sense. It is harder to see what the raising agents do as wraps are a \u201cflat bread\u201d, possibly they reduce dough resting times. You certainly conclude the manufacturers here have been thorough, and these substances will have other benefits, acting as emulsifiers, additional preservatives, anti coagulants or dispersants. Colours are felt to be necessary in a lot of foods, where extracted food ingrediemts themselves cannot give stable colour. It is only the Spinnach with Garden Herbs and Roasted Capsicum with garlic flavours that use artificial colour. Colours do attract strong resistance from some consumers, concerned about potential behavioural influences on children, but it is a small percentage of people who are sensitive to them, about the same as the percentage who are allergic to aspirin.<\/p>\n

Wraps are a food we go to the store to buy, they have a genuine convenience benefit and they are an appealing food item. These additives are generally considered safe in small doses. Having said that, there seems to be an opportunity here for manufacturers to work on a simpler ingredient list. .<\/p>\n

Value For Money<\/strong><\/em><\/h2>\n

Supermarket pricing varies from special lows of $3.99 to full top pricing of $4.89 They are 6 wrap per pack, so you are paying between $0.66 cents to $0.81 cents\u00a0 per wrap. You could make a pancake a little cheaper perhaps, but Wraps have a real convenience and culinary benefit, I will be an ongoing wrapper.<\/p>\n\n
