Burger King info

I live in Cheyenne, Wyoming, but have been driving for the last several days - taking my mother to visit a friend in Minnesota. Today, on the way home, stopped in at a Burger King in North Dakota, and saw that their tray liners now feature a "650 Calories, Regree Free" menu list. It's been a while since I've been to a Burger King anywhere, so I don't know how long these have been available, or if they are everywhere or just in North Dakota - but I'd assume they'd be everywhere.

So what do we have?

Looks like as long as you eschew mayonnaise, you can get a variety of meals for 650 calories or less.

1. Whopper Jr without Mayo
Small diet soda
Apple fries
and a Hershey's Sundae Pie!

I'd give up the Sundae Pie and have mayo on the hamburger, but that's just me

2.Hamburger
Bottled water
Fresh Apple Fries
Dutch Apple Pie

3. 560 calories
4 pc chicken tender
small diet soda
Fresh apple fries
Hershey's sundae pie
Now, there again I'd take a *6* piece chicken tender and forget the Apple Fries, but keep the Sundae pie!

4. 640 calories
6 pc BK Chicken Fries (which are horrible - stick with chicken tenders!)
Bottled water
Fresh apple fries
Dutch apple pie
I'd skip the apple pie so I could have dipping sauce...

5. 520 calories
Garden salad and fat free ranch dressing
bottled water
apple fries
dutch apple pie
Skip the apple pie and get real ranch dressing!

On the back of this menu they give Nutrition information for all their products

Whopper - 670 calories
Hamburger - 260 calories
Cheeseburge - 300 calories
Steakhouse Burger - 900 calories

Original chicken sandwich - 630 calories (but less if you tell them to go easy on the mayo)
6 piece chicken tenders - 270 calories. Dipping sauces vary - 140 for ranch dressing, 90 for honey mustard, 45 for sweet and sour

Big fish sandwich - 640 calories - again, because of the mayo

Onion rings, large orderm 490 calories

BK Fresh apple fries have only 25 calories

Large french fries 540 calories

a large milk shake has over a thousand calories, a small one only 570.
