Nutritionists Agree: This Is Worst Fast Food Sauce—It Has 13g Fat And 140 Calories

Chick-fil-A Sauce

Chick-fil-A offers up a range of unique fan-favorite menu items, from their Frosted Lemonade to their famous Chick-n-Minis. And who could forget the delicious Chick-fil-A sauce? Unfortunately, although this dipping sauce is undeniably taste, Richards warns that the high calorie, fat, and sodium content make it a poor choice when it comes to your overall health—especially if you're trying to lose weight.

"This sauce contains high amounts of fat, at 13 grams per serving, due to it being made with soybean oil and egg yolks," she warns. And the calorie content is no joke, either. Richards points out that "the sauce also contains 140 calories per serving and 270mg of sodium." Yikes!

Then there's the issue of the sugar content. We probably don't have to tell you twice that eating too much sugar can take a serious toll on your health and lead to weight gain over time. "The added sugar content of this sauce should also be a concern from high fructose corn syrup and sugar," she adds. 9 grams may not sound like a lot, but your recommended daily intake is around 36 grams. That means just one serving of Chick-fil-A sauce could take up a quarter of your limit.

Of course, fast food is never the healthiest option and should especially be avoided if you're trying to lose weight. But if you do choose to stop by Chick-fil-A, it's at least in your best interest to leave Chick-fil-A sauce out of the picture.
