I'm still trying to
figure out how a tortilla filled with cubes of cheese could technically
be "healthy" or "wholesome," but I'm the same guy who used
to gargle his saccharine and asbestos shakes before going for a swim
in the Love Canal, so what do I know? What was supposed to be a turkey,
mushroom and Swiss wrap turned out to be more of a sonic surprise
of lactose, "sautéed" mushrooms that spent more time in the
air between the can and the pan than they did sizzling in the good
stuff and some gobbler meat that was so overwhelmed by the rest of
all the garbage in the thing that they might as well have spared the
thing's life and sent it to live with a nice crunchy vegan family.
The whole presentation lacked panache and enthusiasm, thrown together
haphazardly by a stoned Muppet chef. I guess, if I had to cut them
one break, that the whole-wheat tortilla was more "healthy" than one
made out of pigskin fried in peanut oil--although that's a pretty
unscientific opinion. [MF] |
