Although everyone is aware of the fact that fast-food isn’t the healthiest fare out there, it turns out that there are degrees of unhealthiness when it comes to mass-produced culinary options—and some are leaps and bounds worse for you than others.
Based on the data, the unhealthiest burger in America is the cheeseburger sold at Five Guys, boasting 73% more saturated fat than any other fast-food cheeseburger analyzed by the website. To boot, Five Guys French fries were also deemed the least nutritious when compared to other brands. In fact, ordering them would add 953 calories to your meal—making them nearly 50% more unhealthy than others.
To come up with its ranking, the website looked at each chain's nutritional menu and compared the calories, sugar, saturated fat, and sodium values for the products. They then scored them according to the Department of Health's nutrient profiling method. You also might want to stay away from the chicken sandwich on offer at Popeyes, which scored most poorly in that category, also due to high levels of sodium.
