Did you know that most (80%) of McDonald’s menu items are under 400 calories? The restaurant is really making a shift to offering healthier foods options on the go. They actually have a “Favorites Under 400″ menu that is designed to help those that may be counting calories still enjoy a meal away from home.
Customers may be surprised when they hear about the calorie counts of some of their favorite McDonald’s options. “Favorites Under 400” supports McDonald’s ongoing commitment to provide nutritional menu options and accessible information to empower our customers and employees to make choices that are right for their nutrition needs. And the items can fit in nicely with the average daily recommended intake of 2,000 calories per day.
Some of the favorite meal items featured on this menu include:
- Filet o Fish Sandwich
- Real Fruit Smoothies
- Fruit and Maple Oatmeal
