The study by the Mail Online compared six fast food chains in the UK (five of which are here in Ireland), showing the scary number of calories present in fast food dishes, with a vast difference between various chains too.
A medium portion of fries in Burger King works out at being the "best" option, at 280 calories. Their burger too ranks significantly lower than that of Five Guys, with a Whopper Sandwich containing 500 calories.
But when it comes to chicken, Burger King's 570 Chicken Royale ranks as the highest in calories compared to McDonald's 388 calorie McChicken Sandwich.
But these differences are small compared to those of Five Guys, with their food servings known for being larger than other chains and evidently, vastly higher in calories too.
One to note for the next time we're feeling peckish, that's for sure.
