Dietary Fat

SUMMARY OF DIETARY FAT BY TYPE OF BREAD
Saturated Fat
Total fat in each of the English Muffin and Bagel sandwiches includes five grams of saturated fat. That is a 25% daily value, which is considered high.
However, it’s not as high as the amount of saturated fat in the Croissant sandwich which has 13 grams of saturated fat per serving.
For context, the FDA recommends limiting saturated fat to less than 20 grams for an entire day (based on a 2,000 calorie diet).
Sodium
Take note of the sodium levels in one sandwich. There are more than 600 milligrams of sodium in the Egg & Cheese sandwich.
That is more than a quarter of the recommended daily value for an individual following a 2,000 calorie diet.
Moreover, the amount of sodium in the bagel sandwich exceeds 1,000 milligrams.
