With 100% Spanish beef, bacon, Gouda cheese, crispy onion, egg, poppy seed bread and a spectacular creamy hollandaise sauce, this new McDonalds burger has the complete package for not being low in calories.
It has a weight of 228.85 gramsso the nutritional values of the complete burger are:

It represents almost 40% of the daily calories needed in an adult. So we would have a remaining 60% for breakfast and lunch (or dinner). In addition, it will be necessary to add the caloric intake of the fries, the soft drink or the dessert if we request it. In addition, the consumption of saturated fatty acids is around 100% daily, so it would be a health risk to eat more in potatoes or other foods.
double version
For the most daring, there is also the Signature Double Egg Benedictine version. Here the consumption of meat is double, so you notice an increase in calories, protein and fat. Specific:
- Energetic value: 1011 calories
- Proteins: 55 grams
- Carbohydrates: 44 grams
- Fiber: 3.4 grams
- Sugars: 6.8 grams
- Fat: 68 grams
- Saturated fatty acids: 27 grams
- Salt: 2.6 grams
If we are looking to satisfy a craving to try the new McDonald’s hamburger, it is advisable to choose the simple version, with one meat. It is not healthier to have two portions of meat, since the quality is not high and it will be full of oils and fats. In addition, it reaches more than 1000 calories, which will have to be added to the potatoes, the drink and the dessert if we order it on the menu. In total, lunch or dinner can cost us about 2000 calories, which is the recommended daily intake for an active person. Therefore, excessive intake can cause a weight gain and unhealthy fats.
Although it is possible to reduce the calories by eliminating the hollandaise sauce, the truth is that it would not make a big change either. It’s the full combo that’s a big caloric intake. Therefore, it is better to try the simple version.
