- While wrap is used for modern fast food, the traditional French equivalent is the galette from Brittany, which is a savory buckwheat crêpe rolled like a wrap.
- The popularity of wraps in France grew alongside the 'healthy eating' trend of the 2000s, leading to the term becoming a marker of 'cuisine légère'.
- In French menus, you will frequently see the word wrap used as a loanword from English, but it is treated as a masculine noun, so you would say un wrap rather than using a feminine article.
