"COLUMBUS, Ohio (WSYX) — Wendy's may pride itself on never freezing its beef, but that doesn't necessarily make it a healthy choice.
According to a new report by World Atlas, Wendy's has been named the country's unhealthiest fast-food chain.
The report highlights some staggering numbers.
A Triple Baconator meal, complete with large fries and a medium Frosty, clocks in at just over 2,100 calories. It also contains 54 grams of saturated fat and 3,400 milligrams of sodium. This one meal alone exceeds most daily nutritional limits.
Seasonal items aren't any better, packing a serious caloric punch. For instance, the Pretzel Bacon Pub Triple Cheeseburger alone contains over 1,500 calories.
Rounding out the top 10 are:
- Wendy's
- Sonic
- Taco Bell
- Dairy Queen
- KFC
- Quiznos
- McDonalds
- Smashburger
- Little Caesars
- Chick-fil-A
The report reviewed nutrition data, menu gimmicks and marketing tactics at major fast-food chains. The ten restaurants outinely serve meals that can eclipse daily calorie limits in a single sitting."
