Lower Calorie Option
If you prefer a lower calorie, lower carb meal, order the hot dog served with a lettuce wrap in place of the bun. Customizing your order this way reduces the calories by 180 to 170 total calories.
Total Fat
One serving contains 22 grams total fat, including 10 grams of saturated fat.
That’s a daily value of 28% and 50%, respectively (based on a 2,000 calorie diet), which is considered high.
According to the FDA, a nutrient that contributes a daily value of 20% or more is considered high.
Saturated Fat
Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend limiting calories from saturated fat to no more than 10% of total calories.
With that in mind, it’s important to note that one hot dog has 90 calories from saturated fat. For an individual who follows a 2,000 calorie daily diet, that’s about 50% of the recommended limit for an entire day.
