We can argue on taste (I’m a Big Mac fan), but what about calories for those trying to watch our intake?
We researched four fascinating calorie comparisons for your enjoyment:
Burritos: Chipotle vs. Taco Bell
Dessert-ish Drink: Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Latte vs. a Five Guys milkshake
Pizza: Papa John’s vs. Domino’s vs. Pizza Hut
Burgers: McDonald’s vs. Burger King

Depending on your choices of meat, beans, rice, and toppings, a Chipotle burrito goes anywhere between 740 and 1,210 calories.
At Taco Bell, its burrito line-up goes anywhere from a low of 360 calories (bean burrito) to 710 calories (grilled cheese burrito).
Low-Cal Winner: Taco Bell!

Okay, this wasn’t a fair fight.
A Five Guys milkshake starts at 670 calories before the mix-ins and whipped cream. Choose wrong, and you’ll be over 1,000 calories in no time!
But, still, a grande PSL will run you 370 calories.
Low-Cal Winner: Starbucks PSL (but it was compared to a milkshake not a coffee!)

Let’s go 14″ large vs. 14″ large vs. 14″ large for this one.
A slice of the cheese pizza is:
– 280 calories at Domino’s
– 290 calories at Papa John’s
– 335 calories at Pizza Hut (Original Pan, of course)
Low-Cal Winner: Domino’s

McDonald’s Big Mac SOUNDS calorific with its double-decker sizing but it’s a relatively svelte 590 calories.
Meanwhile, a Burger King Whopper has 660 calories, and 740 calories with cheese.
Of course, in either case, it’s hard not to boost the calorie count by getting fries on the side.
Low-Cal Winner: Big Mac!
