Fast food calories

By Catalogs Editorial Staff

These examples of fast food calories show that we may not realize just how many grams of fat and calories are in our favorite treats. Credit must be given, however, to the large fast food chains for introducing healthier foods such as salads to their menus. Patrons always have a choice about what foods to order. Soda can be replaced with juice or milk, burgers by salads, and smaller portions can be purchased in order to make eating fast food calories more health conscious. Here are some numbers for you to consider.

McDonald’s

  • Big Mac – 540 calories, 29 grams of fat
  • Large fries – 570 calories, 30 grams of fat
  • Quarter Pounder with cheese – 510 calories, 26 grams of fat

  • Scrambled Eggs (2) – 170 calories, 11 grams of fat
  • Hotcakes with margarine and syrup – 610 calories, 18 grams of fat

It must be noted that McDonald’s is taking steps to make its menu healthier and does offer lower calorie items. Order these items to save on fast food calories.
