Total Fat
One serving of McDonald’s breakfast bagel sandwich has 30 grams of total fat, including 12 grams of saturated fat.
SUMMARY OF FAT PER SERVING
Saturated Fat is High
Dietary Guidelines for Americans (published by the US Department of Health and Human Services) recommend limiting calories from saturated fat to less than 10% of total calories.
The 12 grams of saturated fat in one serving is 61% of the daily value (based on a 2,000 calorie diet). That is high.
Note: saturated fats are found in animal fats, baked goods, pizza, and vegetable shortening, among other food items. The FDA recommends choosing foods lower in saturated fat.
Sodium
There are 1,320 milligrams of sodium in McDonald’s Bacon Egg Cheese Bagel. That’s over half the FDA-recommended limit for an entire day.

According to the FDA, a nutrient that contributes a 20% or greater daily value could be considered high. To that end, the bacon, egg, & cheese bagel is high in dietary fats, total carbs, cholesterol, and sodium.

I wish the breakfast sauce, and all other ‘sauces’ did not contain derivatives of MSG. If you reference ‘truthinlabeling.org’ there is a comprehensive list. Many people have side effects from this ‘added’ preservative/flavor enhancer’ and cannot pinpoint it. It is a serious hidden health concern.
Thank you for sharing the additional resource. For those who are interested to learn more, Truth in Labeling publishes a list of ingredients (e.g., soy sauce, yeast extract, whey protein, malted barley, dextrose, etc.) that contain or are suspected to contain processed free glutamic acid.
