5.McDonald’s: Better Bet
The classic Filet-O-Fish sandwich is fried, but its caloric punch is surprisingly weak. The Filet-O-Fish takes a fried fish patty, a slice of processed cheddar cheese, lettuce, and tartar sauce and stacks it on a steamed bun. It comes in at a relatively healthier 400 calories, with 4 grams of saturated fat, 45 milligrams of cholesterol and 560 milligrams of sodium. McDonald’s says the sandwich is made from wild-caught fish.
6.Chick-fil-A: Poor Bet
The Spicy Deluxe Chicken Sandwich tips the scales when it comes to calories among Chick-fil-A options. With its fried, breaded chicken breast, buttered bun, and slice of pepper jack cheese, it clocks in with 550 calories and 25 grams of fat. It also has 85 milligrams of cholesterol and a hefty 1,810 milligrams of sodium.
