Burger King Nutrition Facts and Healthy Menu OptionsClick on the screen below and scroll down to explore Burger King nutrition facts. There’s also a link below so you can download or print this file. At the bottom of this page you’ll see our recommendations for the healthiest menu options Burger King has to offer. Healthiest Menu Options: Amazingly, as many fast food places are cutting out trans fat from their menus, Burger King still uses artery clogging trans fats in many of their foods. They also offer a “Triple Whopper” sandwich that has over 1230 calories and 82 grams of fat, and have the audacity to market it as a “manly meal”. BK does have a few halfway decent options on the menu that won’t go directly to your waistline and we’ve listed them below. • Tendergrill Chicken Sandwich (no mayo): 280 calories, 9g fat, 2g saturated fat, 1130mg sodium • BK Veggie Burger (no mayo, no cheese): 340 calories, 8g fat, 1g saturated fat, 1030mg sodium • Side Garden Salad w/ Fat Free Ranch Dressing: 75 calories, 0g fat, 0g saturated fat, 740mg sodium (Low Fat Sesame Ginger Dressing adds 90 calories, 2.5g fat, and 790mg sodium) • Tendergrill Chicken Garden Salad w/ Fat Free Ranch Dressing: 240 calories, 9g fat, 3.5g saturated fat, 1460mg sodium • Ham Omelet Sandwich: 290 calories, 12g fat, 4.5g saturated fat, 870mg sodium (not healthy by normal standards but by far their healthiest breakfast sandwich) BOTTOM LINE: Burger King doesn’t have many healthy choices to choose from. They have been one of the last fast food chains to embrace healthy changes such as eliminating trans fats and offering healthy menu options. Look for another option whenever possible.
