The best and worst Wingstop menu items

We asked a dietician registered to weigh on wings and calls for tenders from Wingstop to order and avoid.


There are no many restaurants of chain specialty in chicken wings and offers only. In fact, apart fromBuffalo Wild Wings, Wingstop can simply be one of the most famous chicken chicken chains where you can order a combination of anything from the hot hot wings, such as atomic flavor, even pleasantly tasty, like lemon pepper . But what really works in order to order the Wingstop menu?

Patricia Bannan, Mrs., RDN, nationally recognized nutritionist and expert in healthy cooking, examined the Wingstop menu and eliminated the foods she thought is the worst for you, as well as those that will not cost you a whole day sodium and trans fat.

Here is the breakdown of the best and worst WingStop menu options.

Jumbo Wings

Worst: Parmesan with garlic

By 2 wings: 206 calories, 15 g of fat (4 g saturated grease, 1 g of trans grease), 140 mg of sodium, 1 g of carbohydrates (1 g of fiber, 0 g sugar), 16 g protein

"Not only are these wings are the highest in calories, but they are also the highest of saturated fat," says Bannan.

For a perspective, the rest of the Jumbo wings contains no more than 3 grams of saturated fat, and while a drop in a gram may not seem like a lot for two wings, it starts to beat when you order a handle. Let's say you ordered six Parmesan Jumbo-Garlic wings - which totaled 12 grams of saturated fat, which represents more than half of your recommended daily consumption of22 grams.

Not to mention, these wings also containtrans fat, which is known to raise theNowl levels of cholesterol known as LDL. We will move on to these wings and get our Parmesan solution elsewhere.

Best: Simple wings

By 2 wings: 140 calories, 8 g of fat (2 g saturated grease, 0 g of trans grease), 66 mg of sodium, 1 g of carbohydrates (1 g of fiber, 0 g sugar), 15 g protein

"It can be boring, but simple wings are the best choice," says Bannan. "These are also the lowest choice of sodium and one of the lowest saturated grease. Ask for one side of the barbecue sauce or a hot sauce on the side to dive the wings if you want a little more flavor."

Boneless wings

Worst: sweet wings

Graceful Wingstop

By 2 wings: 217 calories, 14 g of grease (3 g saturated grease, 1 g of trans grease), 834 mg of sodium, 14 g of carbohydrates (1 g of fiber, 0 g sugar), 9 g protein

"Surprisingly, the soft option is not the best choice of boneless wings. Although they do not have the highest sodium content, they are the highest fat fat and fat Trans, "says Bannan.

Boneless boneless parmesan garlic also has a clock at an equivalent amount of saturated and trans grease. With regard to sodium, the wings with the highest amount of salted stuff are the original hot variety with a milligram of 1,039 milligrams of sodium in just two chicken wings. It's almost half a day of sodium in just 169 calories!

Best: Atomic Wings

By 2 wings: 172 calories, 8 g of grease (2 g saturated grease, 0 g of trans grease), 673 mg of sodium, 15 g of carbohydrates (1 g of fiber, 1 g of sugar), 9 g protein

"If you like spicy things, you're lucky. Boneless atomic wings are one of the lowest choices in sodium and saturated fat," says Bannan.

Although this type of wing contains the second smaller amount of sodium, it did not classify it as a low sodium option.

"Two atomic wings still provide 673 milligrams of sodium or about 30% of the daily recommendation," says Bannan.

Boned offers

Worse: Sweetness

By 2 wings: 341.2 Calories, 22 g of fat (4 g saturated grease, 2 g of trans grease), 1,309 mg of sodium, 16 g of carbohydrates (1 g of fiber, 0 g sugar), 19 g protein

The soft sauce strikes again as one of the least healthy options for light calls for tenders.

"A portion of two boned offers contains not only the maximum daily" allowance] for trans fat, but it also contains more than half a day of sodium, "says Bannan.

As a comparison, two slight offers contain more sodium than a large slice (14 inches) of the pizza pizza pizza, stacked with pepperoni, ham, beef, bacon and sausage .

Best: Atomic offers

By 2 wings: 236.3 calories, 10 g of fat (2 g saturated grease, 0 g of trans grease), 929 mg of sodium, 19 g of carbohydrates (2 g of fiber, 1 g of sugar), 20 g protein

Are you beginning to see a pattern here between wings and offers?

"An order of 2 boneless atomic offers does not contain added sugars, only 2 grams of saturated fat and a surprising 2 grams of food fiber," says Bannan. While the sodium content could be much less dead, atomic offers pack the heat without completely deradiating your diet.

Sides

Worst: fat fries seasoned

710 calories, 30 g of grease (6 g saturated grease, 4 g of trans fat), 1 910 mg of sodium, 97 g of carbohydrates (0 g of fiber, 7 g of sugar), 14 g protein

Shocking seasoned fries are shocking the only side to contain a fat and a lot.

"A significant order of seasoned fries contains double the quantity of trans fat recommended for a whole day and almost a sodium day," says Bannan. "Trans greases can increase LDL cholesterol levels, as well as increase your risk of heart disease."

We do not know exactly what avoids the contents of the trans fat in here, but until this information is revealed, we suggest you avoid any menu option!

Best: Vegetable Sticks with Ranch

335 calories, 33 g of grease (5 g of saturated grease, 0 g of trans grease), 563 mg of sodium, 7 g of carbohydrates (1 g of fiber, 4 g of sugar), 1 g protein

"Opt for one side of carrot or celery sticks is a much lower calorie and sodium option than most lateral offers in the menu," says Bannan.

Glancher on the menu you will see that she does not joke. With four different types of fries baskets (including those who are muffled in cheese) and corn fries ears, it is the least caloric side that you can order by a landslide.

"The use of half of the amount of ranch can also reduce calories and saturated fat in half," she adds.
