The Unhealthiest Fast-Food Chain

DRIVE IN, CARRIED OUT –

Feb. 26, 2022 – When it comes to the Ch’King, the chain’s new signature chicken sandwich, it is by far the worst pick of its kind. Of course, chicken sandwiches are generally high in fat and sodium, but even among the unhealthiest options out there right now, the Spicy Ch’King stands out as an over-the-top option in every aspect. For comparison’s sake, Popeyes’ spicy chicken sandwich has 700 calories, 42 grams of fat, and 1,473 milligrams of sodium, while Wendy’s Classic Big Bacon Cheddar clocks in at 810 calories, 45 grams of fat, and 2,250 milligrams of sodium, even with all the fried stuff it holds between the bun.

But don’t just blame the sandwiches, Goodson adds. “Many of Burger King’s side items fall in the ‘less than optimal’ category,” she said.

“Both [Burger King and McDonald’s] offer lots of high-calorie, fried foods, and unfortunately not a grilled item on the menu! I don’t see salads, grilled chicken sandwiches, nothing,” says Goodson.
