The pros: Quick. It's food. Trader Joe's Turkey Club Wrap is basic food. For a dollar more, go to Subway instead. You'll get way more for your money.
The cons: Flat tasting, dry, should come with a condiment in the packaging to moisten this wrap up.
The verdict: For me buying this again is a no. It was very bland and worst of all it was dry. Even the lettuce wasn't adding much hydration to this. There are better values out there for $3.99. So I would recommend skipping this one and picking up Trader Joe's Cubano Seasoned Wrap instead. It's more in calories, but the taste is actually quite good.
Here is what you get for $3.99:

Like the turkey found in this wrap, it was dry. I won't be buying this again.

I grabbed one of these before reading your review (mistake #1!). I also didn't really pay a lot of attention to the nutritional information (mistake #2).
I agree with you that it was a bit dry, however I luckily had some mayo packets left over from a sandwich a few weeks ago, and that did a good job of adding some flavor and made it actually quite good.
However, the SALT LIPS were not far behind. I've found this with a LOT of stuff from good ole' TJs, and it is really a problem. To waste 40% of my daily sodium intake on a relatively small wrap like this is pretty disappointing. I have passed on TJs delicious looking frozen pizza several times because of the Sodium content, and I think it might have actually been lower than this wrap! I find it crazy. I guess it was the Turkey Bacon that did it? Anyway, it's a shame, I was quite excited about this wrap. Also, adding the mayo upped the fat and calorie content! BOO!

Hey Ryan,
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this. I hate it when I look at the nutritional stuff too. I have a lot of "wow" moments and not always in a good way. I'm glad you found it enjoyable and stopped by to share your experiences as well!
