Isn't a wrap something, I'd put around food?

I'm sorry, I've never heard of that and haven't cared too search for it... So, yeah, maybe my fault

But still, why should I name a food-something after a food-wrapping?
I obviously just don't really get it

I think, it's time for me, to start up DDG now

Edit: oooh, it's not just about the wrap of the snack, as the name would tell you
It's just a fucking wrap of whatever food

So for at least some people in Europe, a Dürüm would be such a wrap.
Which is fucking delicious.
So, ok, I'm all for the wrap snack now.
Although I don't get, why they don't specify what's in it - but maybe there were options I don't know about

Edit 2: sorry for everyone but speaking German, I haven't found a wiki page for Dürüms in English :⁠-⁠\

Sorry I was being facetious. A “snack wrap” is the name of the food at McDonald’s. Similar to Big Mac is the name of the burger. It’s just branding.

There are multiple types of snack wraps and usually the type comes before the name. For example chicken snack wrap.

All good, wasn't even taking that in bad faith

After ducking it, I saw what it meant.
And it should have been quite obvious to me anyway, as we call them just wraps here.
I was just confused about the 'snack' part, because a wrap here counts as a whole meal, like a burger, and not just a snack, which you'd do on the side or in-between meals.

But really thanks for clarifying, I really appreciate it :⁠-⁠)
And I do hope my answer doesn't/didn't came around wrong

Edit: to maybe clarify, a snack would mean something like something I'll take in a bite or two.
But those are just culture differences, so either your wraps are just smaller to fit the definition of snacks, or we just have a bit of cultural difference here.
From my side, no hard feelings, and I just read interested, if I'm missing out on something
