Statistics show that one in every seven people consumes fast food every day. It is no secret that many fast food items contain carbs, fat, and calories, but what about the superstars? What about the ones that stand out the most, the biggest and the unhealthiest items on our fast food menus, the fast food items with the highest amount of calories?
The calories in your big McDonald’s happy meal could be much more than you think. Here is a list of eight fast food items that every other person consumes, but not everyone is aware of the high calories it has in it.
8. Soft Drink And Soda
Drinking Soda or Soft drinks is one of the most significant sources that can contribute to weight gain. It contains lots of sugar and calories, and those who consume it daily can experience hurt in their health. Too much sugar on an everyday basis is not good, and as a solution, one should opt for sugar-free versions of their preferred beverages. One glass of Soft drinks and sodas has at least about 150 calories within it.
7. French Fries And Potato Chips
French fries are the most popular and loved snacks and sides of all time. So goes for potato chips; it is your best pal when you want to pass your time or do lazy eating while watching your favorite show on Netflix. But ever wondered about the number of calories these items have in them? For french fries, it is 312 calories, while for potato chips, it is 250 calories.
6. Pastry And Desserts
For every sweet tooth, it is a crime to say no to desserts, especially pastries. This mouth-watering item is made with lots of butter and oil, and it goes without saying that it contains lots of calories within it. Every pastry within it has at the very least 551 calories in it. So if you are a fitness freak, then you must consider that last slice of truffle pastry.
5. Chowmein
Every now and then, a foodie craves some Chinese. While Chowmein is everyone’s other favorite fast food item, it also contains an insane amount of calories. Chowmein is believed and said to have about 459 calories in it.
4. Momos
If you are a Delhite, then momos is undoubtedly not a fast food item but a feeling for you. While steamed momos might give us a sense that it is not as unhealthy or contains fats and calories as fried momos do, you will be shocked to know that even one plate of steamed momos has calories of about 175-280 calories.
3. Burgers
With lots of veggies, cheese, and your preferred patty, even your favorite burger has a humongous amount of calories within it. Be it Burger King or McDonald’s; every average burger has at least about 300 calories within it.
2. Samosa
Almost every Indian’s evening is filled with a cup of chai and a big samosa. While your favorite samosa contains delicious spicy mashed potatoes, you must know that that is not the only thing it is filled with. It is also sacked with about 250-300 calories in it.
1. Pizza
Pizza is the most popular item that is highly unlikely to be disliked by anyone. But you must know that your favorite large peri-peri has a minimum of at least 300 calories within it. So should you have another slice? Think yourself!
