Review: I almost didn't buy this wrap today because of the seemingly high price. My girlfriend then wisely pointed out that I have spent just as much on a substandard sandwich from 7-Eleven more times than I would like to admit.

Sold!

Get this woman a vacation, because the paltry three bucks and change I spent on this burrito almost seems as if it isn't enough. The meal-sized fist food is expertly wrapped in a tomato tortilla, stuffed with more chicken and carrots than you'd get in a convenience store salad and mixed together with a mild cucumber sauce. The chicken isn't as spicy as something with the word 'tandori' in its name should be, but the ingredients are fresh, filling and a hell of a lot better for me than the gristly turkey I usually eat on my budget lunch days.

If only Trader Joe's and 7-Eleven would exchange their ubiquity with each other, the world (and my stomach) would be a happier place.
