The image here from the McDonald's website is highly idealized, and I'm sorry I didn't have a camera handy for the burrito I ate. First it should be noted that this is tiny, about five inches long and about one inch in diameter. The tortilla was the best part of this thing; it was soft and chewy like a flour tortilla ought to be. By mistake or not, there wasn't any cheese on mine, but I'm sure it's the same slice of processed American cheese that goes on all their items. The egg(s?) was a flat yellow strip with green and red squares of bell peppers. Unfortunately, the bell pepper was the only apparent seasoning. While this may singe more northeastern tongues, all it did for my southwest-trained palette was add an unwelcome sweetness to what ought to be zesty. The sausage itself could've just been leftover hamburger for all the spice it carried. The burrito did come with a packet of McDonald's brand picante sauce; squishing out, it had the texture of a fruit jelly but fortunately enough spice to make the burrito finishable. Pardon the TMI, but like all bad mexican food, it's trip through my digestive tract was short and swift. There are so many other items on the menu that will do less harmful things to your body and taste buds, there is absolutely no reason to ever pay for this.
