The search to find the most unhealthy burger at fast food restaurants had some surprising results including which is the most healthy. Plush Care analyzed the nutritional info on dozens of burgers.
According to their research, the cheeseburger at Five Guys is the unhealthiest fast food cheeseburger, thanks to its 984 calories, 26.5 grams of saturated fat, 8 grams of sugar and 1050 milligrams of sodium in each burger. Five Guys also has the least healthy fries of any chain, while Popeyes is home to the unhealthiest chicken sandwich, as well as the unhealthiest chicken nuggets, and Fatburger has the unhealthiest shake.
So, which burger is the healthiest? It's basically a tie between Culver’s Butterburger, which clocks in with 390 calories, 7 grams of saturated fat, 6 grams of sugar and 480 milligrams of saturated fat and...McDonald’s cheeseburger!
The McChicken at McDonald’s is the healthiest chicken sandwich among the fast-food chains we surveyed. The McDonald’s chicken burger scores roughly half the unhealthiness points of its equivalents at Burger King and KFC! But eh 5 least healthy chicken sandwiches from 5 to 1 are BoJangles, Smashburger, Zaxby's, Fatburger, and the worst is Popeyes.
