Calories from Fat, Carbs, and Protein
While total calories vary based on order size, the proportion 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 (55%) of the 520 total calories in a large order.
- Value: 110 calories from 27g carbs (55% of 200 total calories)
- Large: 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 fat
- Small: 13 grams fat
- Medium: 16 grams fat
- Large: 24 grams 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.
