Author: Fast food giants Burger King announced the US launch of the ‘healthier’ version of its Tendergrill Chicken Sandwich earlier this month, claiming it has less calories, fat and salt than its predecessor. But is it really that healthy?
Burger King marketing chiefs have proudly proclaimed that the chicken burger only has 470 calories, without fries or anything else on the side. Whilst this is lower than a lot of fast food products, it’s still quite a large chunk of daily calorie intake for a sole burger.
Looking on the brighter side, Burger King are making an effort to improve the quality of their food. The new chicken sandwich comes with a whole grain ciabatta bun, and has less fat and salt than other BK options.
This said, you could make your own at home or go to a local sandwich shop for a much healthier chicken sandwich, and it would probably be cheaper.
