The Most Unhealthiest Fast Food Burgers
A list of the most unhealthiest fast food burgers has come out. This was done by a website named Delish. So they looked at the nutritional value of a bunch of fast food items, including cheeseburgers, chicken sandwiches, regular fries, a vanilla milkshake, and a 10-piece chicken nugget. They purchased those from 24 different fast food restaurant chains. They looked at the nutritional menu to find the calories, sugar, saturated, fat, and sodium content in all the items. Then they went to the Department of Health to look at their nutrient profiling method to figure out the relative unhealthiness of each of those fast food items.
So the unhealthy fast food burger is the cheeseburger at Five Guys. It has 984 cal, 26.5 g of saturated fat, 8 g of sugar, and 1050 mg of sodium.
The Unhealthiest Fast Food Burgers
- Five Guys’ Cheeseburger
- Whataburger’s Jalapeno & Cheese Whataburger
- Smashburger Classic Smash
- Carl’s Jr’s Famous Star with Cheese
- Sonic’s Cheeseburger
- Wendy’s Dave’s Single
- Shake Shack’s Single Cheeseburger

Burger King and McDonald’s tied for second-lowest unhealthiest fast food burgers. They have a quarter of the saturated fat of a cheeseburger at Five Guys and less than half of a Wendy’s burger. The lowest tested burger was the Butterburger at Culver’s.
The Unhealthiest Chicken Sandwiches
Here is what the website says about the unhealthiest chicken sandwiches. They say, “As for the unhealthiest chicken sandwich, Popeyes beloved sammie scored 39 points to receive the title as unhealthiest, while McDonald’s once again ranked as the healthiest. The McChicken had nearly half the unhealthiness points of Burger King (31 points) and KFC (27 points) with just 14.”
Finally, Popeyes also ranked number one for unhealthiest chicken nuggets on the list.
