Calories, Nutrition Facts, and Allergens
The calories and nutritional content in this post is based on the onion rings only and excludes any condiments such as ketchup or other dipping sauces. Any reference to percentage daily value (%DV) is based on a 2,000 calorie diet.
Calories
There are 200 or more calories in each serving of onion rings, depending on the size you order. The smallest size (known as the “Value”) contains 200 calories. The Large size order of onion rings has 520 calories.
Here are the total calories in Burger King onion rings by size:
- Value: 200 calories
- Small: 280 calories
- Medium: 360 calories

Value Size
One Value size order of onion rings has 200 calories. The highest portion of the total calories are derived from carbohydrates.
Specifically, there are 27 grams of carbs in one Value serving. Those carbs contribute 110 calories (about 55% of the total).
Dietary fat delivers about 40% of the total calories, or 80 calories. The remaining calories are derived from protein.
- Fat: 80 calories
- Carbs: 110 calories
- Protein: 10 calories
- Total: 200 calories in one value-sized order
The breakout of calories by nutrient is a rounded estimate based on the nutrition facts label provided by Burger King. Calories may vary by location, as a result of how it’s prepared, or due to dipping sauces.
Calories from Fat, Carbs, and Protein
While total calories vary based on order size, the portion of calories derived from each macronutrient (fat, carbs, and protein) remains about the same.
Let me clarify with an example. As mentioned above, the 27 grams of carbs in a Value size of this side dish delivers 110 calories. That’s 55% of the 200 total calories in a Value order.
A large order has more than double the total calories. But, carbohydrates contribute the same percentage (about 55%) of the 520 total calories in a large order.
Here is a summary of calories from carbohydrates, by onion ring order size:
- Value size has 110 calories from 27g carbs (55% of 200 total calories)
- Small size has 150 calories from 37g carbs (55% of 280 total calories)
- Medium size has 195 calories from 48g carbs (55% of 360 total calories)
- Large size has 280 calories from 70g carbs (55% of 520 total calories)
The same holds true for fat and protein. Across all order sizes, fat contributes about 40% of the total calories and protein makes up about 5% of the total calories.
Total Fat
Please take note of the total fat. There are 9 grams of fat in the smallest order size (Value), including 1.5 grams of saturated fat.
- Value: 9 grams total fat
- Small: 13 grams total fat
- Medium: 16 grams total fat
- Large: 24 grams total fat
Dietary Fat in Size Large
If you increase your order to the Large, you will consume 24 grams of fat. That’s 37% of the recommended limit for an entire day (based on a 2,000 calorie diet). Moreover, the size Large contains 4 grams of saturated fat.
