McDonald's Fries & Sides: calories, sugar and salt for every item

Portion size matters more than the choice of side. Going from large to small fries saves 207 kcal and 0.38g of salt, which is most of what you would save by swapping a Big Mac for a Hamburger.

The 9 items in this section range from 12 kcal for the McDonald's Cucumber Sticks up to 444 kcal for the McDonald's Fries (Large). Boone separates free sugars from the sugars that occur naturally in milk and whole fruit, which NHS daily limits do not count, and measures every figure against the guideline for a specific age and sex rather than an adult average.
