How many calories are in a burger?

Answer by  justaskforbrandy (553)

It depends on what type of burger you're eating. Is there cheese? Mayo? Ketchup? Is this from a fast food joint? Example; a Big Mac from McDonald's has 540 calories.

The calories in a "burger" vary greatly, depending on the size/type of the meat patty, the bread/roll size/type, and added condiments and/or cheese and extras. Note the entire contents of the burger, then look up the individual calorie content of each element to get the total calories.

It depends on the type of the burger and the ingredients contained. A classical McDonalds Big Mac has 508 calories, a cheesburger has 294 calories. The classis Whooper of Burger King has 611 calories.

Deconstruct the burger and use a calorie counter to figure out the calories of each thing included in it: weight of the meat, type of meat, bun, cheese, sauce and condiments, etc. The calorie content of some fast-food burgers is listed online at the company's site.
