How this is counted
- Only the 10 chains on this site are counted.
- Where you build the meal, the search looks at every valid combination of the official rows. Where the data is a fixed menu (Starbucks, Taco Bell, McDonald's, Panda Express, Chick-fil-A, Dunkin and Qdoba), it looks at single menu items, not at combinations. An order that you put together yourself at one of these chains is not searched.
- Not every menu section is searched. Kids' meals, sides, sauces, and most drinks and sweets are left out. Protein drinks at Starbucks and Dunkin are searched, because the official menu lists them as their own items.
- On a tie in protein the order with fewer calories is shown. On a full tie one of the tied orders is shown.
- Each row is one row of the official table. A change that the official table does not list is not in the data.
- This is a ranking by one number. It is not a recommendation.
