Total Fat
Just one breakfast sandwich with bacon, egg, and cheese has 21 grams of total fat, including 10 grams of saturated fat, and one gram trans fat.
Trans Fat is an unsaturated fat that occurs naturally in animal foods. The FDA states that Trans fat has ‘detrimental health effects’. While most uses of partially hydrogenated oils have been discontinued, a small amount may exist as a byproduct of processing refined vegetable oils.
Saturated Fat Recommendations
Dietary Guidelines for Americans, published by the Department of Health and Human Services, recommend limiting calories from saturated fat to less than 10% of total calories.
According to the FDA, most Americans consume more than the recommended limits for Saturated Fat. Evidence indicates diets higher in saturated fats can lead to increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease.
Saturated Fat in Croissan’Wich
With that in mind, take note that there are approximately 90 calories from the 10 grams of saturated fat in one Bacon, Egg & Cheese Croissan’Wich. That’s approximately one quarter (24%) of the total 370 calories per serving.
Moreover, the amount of saturated fat in one breakfast sandwich is equal to half the FDA-recommended limit for an entire day (based on a 2,000 calorie diet).
Sodium and Cholesterol
A Bacon, Egg & Cheese Croissan’Wich contains 820 milligrams of Sodium and 250 milligrams of Cholesterol. Given that we’re talking about a single a la carte menu item, that’s a significant quantity of sodium and dietary cholesterol.
The amount of sodium is about 35% of the recommended daily value and the cholesterol content is over 80% of the daily limit recommended by the FDA.
