Those of you that know The Man know that I don’t eat green things. Instead, I eat things that eat green things. That being said, if I were going to directly consume salad I guess I’d have to go with the McDonald’s Grilled Chicken Asian Salad.
Although I previously posted about the loose definition of “grilled chicken” at McDonalds, the salad there seems to be relatively healthy. At least compared to Wendy’s Mandarin Chicken Salad.
Here is the comparison data:
McDonald’s Grilled Chicken Asian Salad
- Calories: 380
- Protein: 32 grams
- Carbohydrates: 37 grams
- Fat: 13 grams
- Fiber: 6 grams
- Sodium: 1,570 mg
Wendy’s Mandarin Chicken Salad
- Calories: 550
- Protein: 30 grams
- Carbohydrates: 54 grams
- Fat: 26 grams
- Fiber: 6 grams
- Sodium: 1,210 mg
At 1/2 the fat and 30% less calories it seems that on the health front Wendy’s is getting spanked! But of course, I’m not qualified to tell you if the McSalad tastes like a wet box of paper or if it’s actually good.
Perhaps someone will one day post a reply and let the world know.
