McDonald’s: Big Breakfast with Hotcakes
Calories: 1,340
Sodium: 2,070
Carbs: 158 g (5 g fiber, 48 g sugar)
Let’s face it: we all dream of starting every single day with fresh pancakes soaked in syrup, sausages, a biscuit and hash browns – especially if we don’t have to cook them. However, McDonald’s offer also gives you more than 1,300 calories, which is more than 50% of your recommended intake per day.
And I don’t think you eat a total of only 700 calories throughout the rest of the day to make up for this caloric bomb. Note that calories aren’t the only scary number about this meal: the 2,070 mg of sodium are way more than your body needs especially right after waking up.
